When cocktail geeks fall in love... →

It’s pretty adorable that Audrey Saunders (an owner of Pegu Club) and Robert Hess (a cocktail writer) finally got together at Tales — and that they turned this year’s Bartender’s Breakfast, the closing party, into their wedding reception. The couple read their vows; the crowd cheered; the bartenders continued to mix drinks. Meanwhile, partygoers jumped in the courtyard...

camalittle asked: Hi Nora!
My boyfriend's parents live in NOLA, and we loooove visiting (normally I'm a vegetarian, but I throw out the rules down there because omg the food the food the food!). Problem is that they have their fav spots to eat and have fun, and we never really break out of those places (Bouchon, Camellia Grille, etc). These places are great, but I'd like to do a little...

dazzlingdelta asked: If you want some other thoughtful mystery books like Tana French, read John Hart. He grew up in my hometown and his books are full of southern small town secrets and great characters. The King of Lies was his first and I just read Iron House in 2 days.

More on using the Pomodoro Technique to get... →

thetaoofdana: Oh, how much more one can do in a day easily with the Pomodoro Technique. I must get myself one of those groovy tomato-shaped timers, but in the meantime just banging out 25 minute sessions of work with 5 min breaks…It’s revolutionary how much more I can accomplish quickly and somewhat smoothly now. I’ve had success with the Pomodoro Technique … though sticking to...

Fifth-Year Senior: Why Making High School Longer... →

I spent five years in high school. I lived with a host family in Germany in the year between my sophomore and junior years and although I attended a gymnasium (professional-track high school) we decided not to make it count because I spoke about ten words of German when I arrived and two were swear words. My dad started me in kindergarten a bit early — I was four and turned five late that...

Tomato Pie →

Hey now, this does look good. And it’s FINALLY TOMATO SEASON! thecooknook: When I decided to whip up this tomato pie from the latest issue of Southern Living, I had no idea what a treat was in store for me. The ripe tomatoes combined with the flaky pastry crust and the cheesy topping was, in the word’s of my grandmother, ultra. I served this as a side to some marinated flank steak for...
