Homemade French Crepes with Brown Butter Persimmons and Canadian Maple

Goooood morning! If you’re anything like me, you wait for new moons and the first of the months or the beginning of the week, and you’re like “yaaaassss #freshstart.” Well, I woke up like that yesterday and then things went to shit.

I was ridiculously productive at work yesterday, despite limited sleep after an amazing Ingrid Michaelson show at the Ace. But do you have those days, when you completely clean up your desk, and inbox, and life and make so much progress, then come into the office and just want to fetal under the desk with a cup of tea?

Pothead

I know that’s a rather salacious title, but would you have clicked on this blog post if I hadn’t used it? Didn’t think so. So minor tangent, I was watching Iliza Shlesinger’s newest Netflix standup show – Confirmed Kills – and died lol’ing by myself in bed last night. Thanks, Cass for the recommendation! She delves into female-only humor – the idiocy of “Je suis mermaid” … Continue reading Pothead
