http://forecastle-to-masthead.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
From the Forecastle to the Masthead. The highs and lows of life near the end of a dissertation. Wednesday, July 23, 2008. Sort of. I've just finished a full draft of my dissertation (so now I'm on a high). Go me. Anyway, regardless, I can work with what I've got. If it's not ALL brilliant, a lot of it is. As Fatty would say, I'm awesome. Tuesday, July 15, 2008. I do feel bad for Dan Uggla though. He's had some tough extra innings, that one. Friday, July 11, 2008. Also, you can buy the ablum for whatever ...

http://accordingtolola.blogspot.com/2009/02/lolas-first-camping-trip.html
Mostly about my dog; sometimes about my job; occasionally about random shit. Tuesday, February 17, 2009. Lola's First Camping Trip. For Valentine's Day, Lola's Daddy and I went out to Enchanted Rock. We borrowed a tent from one of Lola's Daddy's friends. It was frikkin ginormous. You could have slept ten people in that tent. If they were friendly. Here is me and the tent. . Here is our rockin' awesome camp site. (A camp site is, obviously, a tent plus a picnic table.). At Texas State Parks, dogs hav...

According To Lola: The Perfect Hot Dog
http://accordingtolola.blogspot.com/2008/10/perfect-hot-dog.html
Mostly about my dog; sometimes about my job; occasionally about random shit. Friday, October 10, 2008. The Perfect Hot Dog. Has been wowing the internet with her incredibly detailed and thoughtful posts on recipes for everything from chili (in all its variations) to fig tarts. Me, I'm happy when things don't explode in the microwave. But tonight, I simply have to share my recipe for The Perfect Hotdog, probably better known as The Hot Dog For Poor Austinites. Go start another episode of 30 Rock on Netflix.

From the Forecastle to the Masthead. The highs and lows of life near the end of a dissertation. Monday, May 26, 2008. Another Gem from Fox News. Correcting herself, she went on to say that it would be good if someone killed Barack Obama. This is an exact transcript of what she said:. I'm serious about the smarmy grin and chuckle. Check it out- the comment about Obama is from 1:21 to 1:33. Or is that what we want people on TV to do- shock us? Friday, May 23, 2008. I want to ride my.bicycle. Boy was I wron...

http://bakinginthemagnoliastate.blogspot.com/2009/11/cherry-oat-cardamom-muffins.html
Flour on the Floor. Despite frequent sweeping and mopping, there always seems to be a thin film of flour covering my kitchen floor. And I wouldn't have it any other way. We all need familiar ground under our feet from time to time. Sunday, November 8, 2009. Adapted from Small-Batch Baking. Muffin liners or cooking spray. 1/2 cup AP flour. 3/4 tsp. baking powder. 1/4 tsp. ground cardamom (you can use cinnamon but it changes the flavor completely). Yolk of one egg. 2 T milk (1% is fine). 2 T vegetable oil.

From the Forecastle to the Masthead. The highs and lows of life near the end of a dissertation. Monday, April 28, 2008. Take this for example. This is a pig's shoulder after one hour on the grill. This is the same pig's shoulder after six hours on the grill. Thursday, April 24, 2008. Chicago vs. MLA. I need a drink. Wednesday, April 23, 2008. And God was happy about it. I know this because one day my wife and I. Tuesday, April 22, 2008. Jamestown was awesome, especially because the old guy who was workin...

From the Forecastle to the Masthead. The highs and lows of life near the end of a dissertation. Monday, November 17, 2008. Well, I cooked the turkey on the grill and have some news to report. Ahh, America, and your infatuation with unnaturally big breasts. The turkey, you heathens. Go read some Kingsolver. Geez. Monday, November 10, 2008. Done, pt. 1. The first thing I'm going to do is make some good veal stock and demiglase (if I can find veal bones in Oxford. I'm not optimistic. Rhea's Market m...

From the Forecastle to the Masthead. The highs and lows of life near the end of a dissertation. Monday, October 27, 2008. Well, well, well. It's Monday night, and that means I'm sitting here watching football, playing poker, and posting to my blog. But I'm tired, so I'm not going to say much. I type for a living, I don't want to type now. Maybe I'll do more tomorrow to make up. Nice, Dan. That'll keep 'em reading. You just want to concentrate on cent poker. October 27, 2008 at 9:56 PM. Flour on the Floor.

From the Forecastle to the Masthead. The highs and lows of life near the end of a dissertation. Monday, June 30, 2008. Melville's Ishmael is one of my top three favorite literary characters. (The other two, by the way, are Hemingway's Jake Barnes from. The Sun Also Rises. And Milton's Satan from. I was hooked on this book by the first chapter. Sure, everyone knows the "Call me Ishmael" opening, but what else? Do you know why Ishmael set foot on that doomed ship, the. It was because Ishmael, like so many ...

Flour on the Floor. Despite frequent sweeping and mopping, there always seems to be a thin film of flour covering my kitchen floor. And I wouldn't have it any other way. We all need familiar ground under our feet from time to time. Saturday, July 26, 2008. Back on the Mac (and a Peach-Nectarine Galette). So I guess we've learned that the way to get me to write blog posts regularly is to give me a MacBook (Hear that, Dan? You can find this recipe (with variations) in the July 2008 issue of Southern Living.
