Last night, MTM and I were treated to a one-of-a-kind dinner at Lana Restaurant. Our Place, moved across town. John Ondo, the chef and our friend, put together a surprise meal that bowed to Mardi Gras, with oysters in every course, spinning the food with his talented flare. Thank you, John, for making such a plate-licking, [...]

My Big Mardi Gras Reveal

Late. My shoes clacked on the blue stone sidewalk as I ran. Perspiration broke out like a teenage rash on my upper lip.

It wasn’t what anyone intended. A cab stops. People jump out, dragging their stuff behind them. It happens in cities hundreds of thousands of times every day.

Architecture. A series that concludes today with a Cootchie Classic. MTM got to visit Brasilia last summer. I wrote this post in advance of his trip. I still don’t understand how he could take two memory cards full of photos of this place. MTM is skipping around the house in an overblown, hyperactive state of [...]
