A Quick (Life) Driving Lesson
Hello and welcome to your driving lesson. Please take a seat and buckle up. There is a lot to learn, but don’t be afraid. Like anything else, driving just takes practice and patience.

Does Someone Have A Second to Invent These Things?
When I was younger I thought it would be cool to be an inventor. I pictured myself creating the next big thing the world never knew it needed, becoming a millionaire and living in a mansion with my family and a pet elephant. The only thing that stood in the way of that dream was… Continue reading

If You’re Going to Post, Post What’s True
As a creature of habit, my routine in the morning is almost identical every single day of the workweek. Among pressing snooze a few times, listening to a podcast, and making a (usually empty) promise to myself that we’ll nap later, checking Timehop—an app that connects to your social media accounts and shows you posts… Continue reading

March & April Favorites (2018)
It’s beginning to feel a lot like…spring? Summer? Winter again? Honestly I have no idea with the highs and lows going on in Southern California right now.

In August of 2016, me, my sister, and my best friend Allison (except I spell it Alleeson because of a whole Kimberlee double-e solidarity thing) went to dinner at Islands.

Some Thoughts on Hug Protocol
I like hugs, I really do, but I’m also very confused by them. See, I understand there are times when it’s obvious to hug and times when it’s obvious not to hug. But then there’s all this middle ground that is hard to read and makes my stomach hurt. Take for example the “to hug”… Continue reading

(Your) Kids Say the Darndest Things
I don’t have any kids yet. (Thank goodness.) I love them, and want them someday, but right now I survive primarily off of pasta and granola bars and I recently lost my favorite pair of pants inside my dresser drawer, so it’s safe to I need some time to, you know, grow. When the time… Continue reading

Strain then Stir (Episode 3): How to be Ingredient Conscious (Part 2)
Hello and welcome back to another episode of Strain Then Stir, a no-cameras, diary-esque cooking show blog where I attempt to transform myself from a two-meal Tina into a full course Frank…or at the very least, be capable of feeding myself more than cereal and pasta.
