Here’s a little peek at the Sunday of a writer / non-profit arts administrator / small press publisher.. Woke up, had coffee, forgot to eat breakfast (oops), sat on couch and started processing e-mails & FB messages, ended up: • starting to set up a monthly RPG for my “Jump Space” universe (good for SF […]

Local peeps, I’m trying something a little outside my comfort zone — I’d like to try my “Jump Space” universe as a role-playing game, with the triple goals of: • developing it as a game for possible Kickstarting in a year or three • helping me with world building and generally staying present in my

I think I’m going to try doing a teaching video of Beef Smoore today, which is a super-simple Sri Lankan roast. The tricky thing is that I’m doing it with some visiting friends, Lisette and Carmela, and the recipe calls to marinate for 2 hours, and later to cook for 2 hours. So in order to film that,

One of my personal resolutions is to cook healthier for my family this coming year, because in the mad rush of the last few months, we’ve relied too much on pasta and peanut butter sandwiches for them. (Not to mention all the holiday sweet-making…) So I started off on that plan today, making chicken soup

Whew — that’s the last of the Christmas party pics up! I’d say I’m only two weeks behind on photo posting, except there are some photos on my phone from, oh, August? I’m going to try to clear them in the next few weeks, though! #serendibkitchen #serendibhome

Christmas party pics. Was particularly happy with how the Sri Lankan love cake village dusted with powdered sugar came out — and it’s even gluten free! Will be making that again next year, I suspect. #serendibkitchen #serendibkitchen

I promised to report back on the new deep fryer, and overall, I’d say I’m very glad we got it. We don’t deep fry regularly for our family, but we do it for parties, and we have parties often enough that this will get sufficient usage to make it worthwhile for us. Deep frying is

Finally have a little time to go back and post our holiday party pics — these are nargisi kofta, aka Scotch eggs, made with quail eggs so they’re appetizer-sized. They were VERY popular, and I should’ve made at least twice as many — I’ll know for next time! If you actually manage to have any

Watching Great American Baking Show: Holiday Edition 2019 on Hulu (done by the GBBO people, with Paul Hollywood hosting), and there’s a Sri Lankan American woman competing, Sarita Gelner. Apparently she’s a food blogger and TV chef in St. Louis. Cool. (Don’t google about it unless you want spoilers!) #serendibkitchen
