2024 Projects!

Round pies

I abandoned round pies for 4 years! Working on a dough flow, working on process, working on sauce.

Sourdough

Sourdough has been so hard for so long, but I’m finally bettering the process and getting great form.

MFD Proper

Looking for MFD space. Want to rent to me?

Reading

I don’t read often, but trying to get into the one-a-month world.

  • Eichmann in Jerusalem by Hannah Arendt
  • Norwegian Wood by Haruki Murakami
  • Min Kamp 6 by Karl Ove Knausgård
    ★★★★★
    • In the style of Phil Miller from Last Man on Earth: What a frickin slog. Hundreds of pages 100% not for me. But a good portion of what we read Knausgård for, for sure.
  • Cities of the Plain by Cormac McCarthy
    ★★★★★
  • Moby-Dick
    ★★★★
  • The Crossing by Cormac McCarthy
    ★★★★★
    • I love these books so much.
  • All the Pretty Horses by Cormac McCarthy
    ★★★★★
  • Child of God by Cormac McCarthy
    ★★★
  • Min Kamp 5 by Karl Ove Knausgård
    ★★★★★

Mainlining

  • Frasier

I’m always a bit shocked when people mention they’ve never watched Frasier. Kelsey is incredible. David Hyde Pierce incredible. All of your classic sitcom elements!

Money to live

I make pizza a few times a week until all the bills are paid. Lately I’ve been trying to save money to open a place.
