In Search of a Coney Dog
On a whim, I asked Alex if he wanted to go on a quest to find the best coney dog in the area. Okay, okay, area has a loose interpretation here. I included Flint because despite being from Flint, I’ve never had a coney at Angelo’s. Why did I even do this? I’m not a… Continue reading In Search of a Coney Dog
Joe Biden Big Scoop Bracket: Train Tracks
As a Delaware senator, Joe Biden made a daily commute from Wilmington to Washington DC for work. The decades he spent making this trip are the inspiration for this ice cream. Since you don’t get a train commute without train tracks, I thought that I’d create an interpretation of Moose Tracks ice cream. Moose Tracks […]
Traffic #4
Megan. She gets worked up over everything. It’s not like I called her a high school English teacher. Uptight. That’s what she is. Thank God I didn’t call her that. And now I have to go buy her something. When we met she was different, but she changed. They always go and change. A change’ll do you… Continue reading Traffic #4
Joe Biden’s Big Scoop Bracket
A few weeks ago, a few people posted a video montage of Joe Biden eating ice cream on my Facebook wall. My heart swelled with emotions. The first was mild confusion. No, I wasn’t confused as to why I opened up my habitual feed to find this particular visual. But I wondered, Is this who I am? […]

He has already reached the age where he sometimes has plans for his own time that are different that what I had in mind. Over the last couple years, we’ve taken a few road trips… Continue reading Road Trip Love

365 Days of Salad
I decided at the last minute to do a New Year’s goal. I’m going to try to eat a green salad every day in 2017. This shouldn’t be too hard. I love salad! I love coming up with different flavor combinations. However, sometimes when you don’t slow down, it can be a challenge to get… Continue reading 365 Days of Salad
Savor
Someone recently asked me about my 2016. In the pause between processing the question and clumsily sputtering forth an answer, I realized that I have no idea what happened to 2016. This realization is what led me to 2017’s word: savor. I want to pay attention this year, and experience it fully. Of course, I’m… Continue reading Savor
