Today’s cereal is… (drumroll) Shreddies! Y’all don’t have these in the U.S., sorry boo. Hamlet Week + Cereal Tuesday = this: Flavor: 8/10 Call me a renaissance man, but I love the simplicity of this cereal’s flavor.

Cocktail Anatomy: Ginny Weasley
My cool older cousin introduced me to this drink– an overly-simple, probably-gross, definite party-concoction. This is a drink born out of desperation– when the coke runs out, and the host forgot to buy tonic water– take a couple of shots and then mix yourself a Ginny Weasley.

Cereal Tuesday!
Tuesdays aren’t just for pot roast anymore! Back in “the day” (high school), Joanna and I used to drive to Safeway in our Catholic school uniforms, buy a box of Junk-food cereal, and eat it at my house.

Allie Hanlon of Peach Kelli Pop
At first I thought her name was Kelli, and since I’m Kellie, that was pretty exciting. But actually she’s Allie. The name Peach Kelli Pop was taken from a Redd Kross song, and the cute n’ catchy name is fitting to her Anime Beach Boys sounding jams. Before there was a band, Peach Kelli Pop … Continue reading »

“Did you know I read that if you don’t have sex for a year, you can actually become re-virginized?” – Charlotte, Sex and the City One cold January morning I stood in my high school hallway looking around at the faces of my friends and frenemies, surveying my surroundings, and suddenly I realized, I’m all … Continue reading »
