Greetings, humans.
EVE Talks, Cake Wrecks, and Finding Your True Eros with Katsudon
My friend requested a Cake Wreck-y sheet cake, and trying to convey intentionally bad decoration is surprisingly hard! Plus: my “EVE Talk” on eros and katsudon.
Cocktail: Femme with a Twist
This cocktail is fancy, colorful, and extra, which are three words I’d use to describe my gender expression as a nonbinary femme.
Garlicky Creamed Nettles and Cowboying Down
We can handle nettles by taking a page from Ivan Coyote and “cowboying down.”

Self-Care Oatmeal Chocolate-Chunk Cookies
I understand that food blogs carrying on as scheduled is a source of comfort and normality in these first three days. However, for my first 100 days of activism, this blog is going to be relentlessly queer. Rainbow-laser queer. Queer turned to 11.
[queerness intensifies] First, we start with self care.
