Death Rays. Mind Control. Teenage Werewolves.  When you’ve got a problem so rad that conventional science can’t help, you need to visit Awesome Hospital.

I don’t eat doughnuts, even Krispy Kremes.  (Yes, I’ve tried them hot, several times.)  However, I do eat beignets and ollebollen, mostly because they remind me of malasadas. Grandma and I used to make them from scratch, deep fry them, and roll them in sugar.

Malasadas are also sold as fundraisers in Hawaii and, well, I’d never pass one by.  Hey, it’s for a good cause.

But I’ve now learned that there is a dedicated day to one of my favorite foods…check out Kim’s post at outriggerhawaii.com.  I want this to be my second birthday.

If you want something, you have to put yourself out there, even a whisper can be heard.  With two answers, a postcard, and a stamp, you can join the World Domination Postcard Project and start heading in another direction.

Thanks to Kirsten for sending this great find!

I missed out on Lost.  It was all bad timing.  I was in grad school and after graduation went on to this crazy busy work project for three years.  Can anyone catch me up on five seasons in like, 10 minutes?

Thank goodness for my heroes at the Reduced Shakespeare Company!  At tonight’s performance, they performed Hamlet four times, after performing all of the tragedies, comedies, a few sonnets, and even the questionable plays.

So, on to Lost!

Who knew that being a game show host was the next career step after being the Poet Laureate of the United States?  Robert Pinsky once told Kirsten that her poetry is HOT!
