geeky recipe and party ideas
This past week, I spent some time in beautiful Victoria B.C. to handle media relations for Desert Bus for Hope. Desert Bus is a live-streamed charity event that raises money for Child’s Play Charity. In this, its 9th year, it raised $677,914 which brought its lifetime total to Child’s Play to […]
Yeah yeah, so the stores have skipped straight to Christmas, but we still have a delicious holiday coming up in one week, and it should not be forgotten. If you’re invited to a Thanksgiving feast, don’t show up empty-handed. Grab one of these fun gifts that will insure you’ll be […]
I had the pleasure of exploring the 3 Howls Distillery in SODO a couple weeks back and trying some of their delicious spirits. (I’m a huge fan of their banana, blood orange, and rosemary vodkas!) Their spirits are made by geeks–the distillers have backgrounds in science and tech, and use […]

It’s that glorious time of the year again. I share some of my favorite weird-yet-sexy costumes, and you vote on which one I must wear in a photo shoot. Why do I do this? Well, I don’t know. But you all seem to love it. Past winners have included The Kool-Aid […]

It’s that time of year again. The International Food Bloggers Conference is here, and I swear it’s like Christmas. I was too excited to sleep last night and everything!
