i will surely write a long post about this at some point. but for now, i call this home while im mastering italian cuisine here in copanello, italy at the italian culinary institute. buonanotte a tutti! #travel #cook

come on. how south philly can we get?

HAPPY 2026! celebrating the burning of christmas as one does in south philly

happy new year! a 2026 “revolution” (bigger than a resolution, h/t sara) is to find my way back into art. i enjoy creating. it’s time to make space for all things that give me energy. #create

cleaning out the fridge (and some thanksgiving leftovers!): added some ground beef to crescent rolls, (frozen) mashed potatoes, (frozen) peas and carrots … for a warming bone-sticking meal on this icy night. #cook

feet dangling off the side of a helicopter… pretty awesome rush!

my house has 6 bedrooms, and for the last 20 years, friends and family (and randos from the internet) have lived with me. this year, i asked them all to move out. so when i asked some friends for their new mailing addresses for christmas cards, woody's response cracked me up: _this is what i expect to see for your card this year_ damn, that's good.

when amazon gives you 6 hands of bananas instead of 6 bananas… you make pistachio banana bread. #cook

sometimes you just take a photo that ends up being accidentally perfect. here my softball teammates are arguing who is the fastest … (it’s actually me). #accidentalrenaissance

bookmarking this! i was interested in the idea too., and have started fleshing long-from (and short!) syndicated at brianflounders.com using this npub. it's github and cloudflare (so i did have to use email). i was just looking for other unhosted options. still just learning and exploring (so its buggy). love the contact form.
