I love Jennifer. I love her with all my heart and a tiny portion of my pancreas. Jennifer is an Art of Doing Stuff reader that brought homemade firestarters to my attention.

I need to warn you all of 2 things. One … this is going to be a short post. Two … I didn’t invent this idea, I saw it on the show “House”. Also there’s going to be the opportunity to see a dink at the end of this post. So I guess technically, that [...]

I think it’s quite possible the sun is made entirely out of acrylic. If I’m hot I can’t relax, and if I can’t relax I can’t [...]
The very first thing I ever learned to cook was pizza. I started around grade 8 and spent the next 472 years trying to perfect it. I’m about halfway there. The first big breakthrough I had was a couple of years ago when I started to BBQ my pizza. Up until then I’d tried everything [...]
