#ShortOrderFiction created in 30 minutes while I was cooking/preparing that meal :) (for recipe, check website in profile). The Attraction of the Deep. He dove in the middle of the ocean with lead tied to his ankles, knowing he couldn’t swim that far down on his own. The pressure pushing on his temples and the lack of oxygen constricting his lungs failed to steal his resolve. He had waged his life in hope to see them, his soul wrecked with memories of sensual creatures of the Great Deep. The sound of music reached his ears as his lips released his last bubbles of air. Bright eyes stared at him from the abyss. Feminine voices, undulating silhouettes, and flapping tails pulled him lower into a bright blue swirl. And then he saw a face. So beautiful, he thought, I can now welcome death. . . . . . #shortorderfiction #octopus #seafood #fennel #fiction #cthulhu #mermaid #ocean #dive #grill #tentacles #creature #abyss
Haitian meat pies from “American Street” by Ibi Zoboi. For the recipe, check @curiositales (“the magazine for all things bookish”)—their third issue features Ibi Zoboi and Kendare Blake (and fiction food photo/recipe by yours truly) :) . . . . . . . . #haitianfood #meatpie #fictionfood #ibizoboi #bookstagram #foodwriter
The days when the workday ends early or starts late, my love and I meet at a coffee shop and play a little game: the first one orders her/his drink under one name (from a book we read or a movie we saw) and the other orders her/his drink, trying to find the complementary one. The baristas are super nice and very understanding of our little game (we do this when there is no line). This is how it has turned out so far :) #litcouplesip #litcouplesiptogether #bookcouplesip #coffee #matcha #tea #harrypotter #crazyrichasians #thematrix #theprincessbride #gameofthrones #twilight
People often ask me the difference between macaroons and macarons (autocorrect always gets the last one wrong). So, here is the information, in case you were curious about the differences between these two delicious treats (from culturetrip.com) #macarons #macaroons #pronunciation
Last figs of the season about to be lightly roasted and served with prosciutto on flat bread. #lastdaysofsummer #fridaynightdinner #fig #proscuitto
I was standing in line when I got this. Guess what I did: 1) accepted 2) declined; appalled 3) spit out my coffee, laughing 4) got Thanos’s number
Mural seen on my evening stroll.
Lazy Saturday: in PJs all day building legos.
