24
After last weekend’s beach adventure that saw the return of Cherry Man, I spent the last week recovering. Monday and Tuesday were given over to slathering massive amounts of green aloe vera gel on my sunburned face in a desperate attempt to try and speed the recovery process, and Wednesday and Thursday were spent shedding…

Valentines Day Adventures

Culinary to-do list: 2011 version
It’s entirely possible that I will update this list throughout the year, but I thought I would keep a list of the things I’d like to either re-learn how to make or learn, period. Some of these are things that my mom makes, and some of them are things that I’ve seen and want to…

Sushi Review: CitySen Sushi Night
Last night a couple of friends and I got together at the CityFlats hotel in downtown Holland for their once a week sushi night. The hotel advertises it around town like it’s kind of a big deal, and I believed it; enough so that when a friend emailed us with the plan and mentioned that…
