Waveflux wraps it up
It’s a day for bright new beginnings! Yay! Also for endings, which brings us to this: the last post, absolutely the last, here at the old blog.
Consumed
The kitchen list
As 2008 winds to a close, it’s time to make a list of culinary goals and objectives for the new year. Recipes to try, techniques to practice, and plain old organization.
Perused
“And his armour clattered upon him”
Courage! Honor! Heroes! Death! Trash talking! No, it’s not the latest Jerry Bruckheimer blockbuster. It’s the Iliad of Homer, the beloved classic which I am reading yet again.
Scribbled
“A pact with disappointment”
Two novelists give me timely advice about art, failure, and such, and I conclude that 2009 is an opportune time to decide if I’m a writer. Or, uh, a writer. Or something else.
Viewed
Teevee potpourri
Two television shows, two commercials, a billion public service announcements: Things I’ve watched and enjoyed, or watched and wearily despised, or watched while wondering aloud.

I got ur weblog awardz
Pained because your lowly blog didn’t merit a nomination in the current Weblog Awards? Console yourself, blogger; at least you’re not squabbling over an imaginary trophy.
Embodied
Eating wrong in 2009
In which we declare our dedication to fat, sugar, starch and full flavor in food and cooking. In my opinion, dear friends, it’s a very good thing to be a Butterton. Mmmm, Butterton.
