Heaven

Here is the beginning of one of my stories that never gets published. Others may not, but I like my own style. How many roads lead to Heaven? If you trip on the bridge, do you fall? Had some event marked Una, did a single moment fix her to her chair? Or was it an … More Heaven

This was the title of … More Bad poetry

Hattie says: There was also an excerpt from Chris Hayes’s new book, A Colony Within a Nation. As he says, “In the nation, you … More Things people have sent me to try.

I splashed swordfish with olive oil, rice vinegar, soy sauce, and orange juice, and grated fresh turmeric over it. Then I baked it in a clay cazuela. It was arguably the best thing I have ever made–I wonder whether I can repeat it. Axé.
