A few weeks ago, Mr. Geek and I had a fabulous date night–we went to the downtown Seattle REI to hear a talk about how to survive a zombie outbreak (and maybe other, less likely, natural disasters). The presentation was entertaining and informative, and a lot of the basic facts can be found in this infographic REI created. Check it out and maybe have a date night at REI of your own–it’s a fantastic place to pick up everything you’ll need for an emergency, zombie or otherwise.

When the fine folks at @giadavegas let you take the tasting menu back to your hotel room. I'm sure it's not the ideal experience, @giadadelaurentiis, but your tasting menu is still absolutely divine. (And it's helping this COVID-conscious business traveler relax in comfort!)

Easter egg hunts, friends, family, impromptu coordinating family outfits, and more food and chocolate than we know what to do with. Overall, it was a pretty good Easter. Happy Easter to you and yours!

Made cookie monster cupcakes for my son's second birthday. While I love to bake, my artistic skills are questionable, so I'm thrilled that these turned out as cute as they did!

Hello, I made a pasta cake because I'm a trash monster that's up for a challenge.

"Mommy work!" is something Leonidas has been saying a lot lately. Between the day job and writing another book, I haven't had a lot of time away from my computer. I'm exhausted, everything is a mess, and Leonidas and I are both getting over colds (as you can see from his nose.) Yet, this picture is one of my recent favorites. You can see the sparkle in my eye just from being around this cutie. Being a working mom is not glamorous, but I wouldn't trade it for anything.

After that dreams I’ve been having the last two nights, I might need this! They’ve been all about zombies, and not the slow-moving non-scary type. I’m talking World War Z fast as they can move type.
