This loaf came out a bit denser than I'd have liked, but I wasn't in the mood to do serious kneading. Two tablespoons of fresh rosemary makes for a strong herbal flavor that paired well with butter, poached eggs, and a little balsamic for breakfast.

I was just at the gym watching a The Wire s2 episode, and came back to this awful news. Ransone was incredible in that season — so believable as the screw-up determined to live down to everyone's low opinion of him. And great in almost everything else I saw him do. RIP.

This weekend's going to be a big first for me: watching the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Never read the books, never saw the movies before. I'll be going through the extended versions with a friend.

For the last few months, I've been working on a story about January's crash near Washington, D.C. What I learned was that it was simply an accident waiting to happen.

More airlines here should consider cute livery like this.
While Spirit fights for its survival, it has found some time (and money) to deck out A320neo N628NK in a holiday sweater livery.
