Hey, it has been a while. I did win NaNoWriMo for 2011, and am starting to think about revising that first draft. I am no longer having fabulous adventures in Alaska, but I am keeping up the curation of the Tongass tumblr, so you can check out other people’s adventures.

In the mean time, I am whiling away the winter in Seattle, where I have been having baking adventures.

I have two very young cousins, and I am sending them unicorn poop, as per this Instructable.

In non-culinary news, I am also puzzled by this news story: random New Age lady from New Zealand spends years on Tlingit world encyclopedia, guided by her spirituality rather than any academic connection to reality. I’m going to go ahead and agree with the tumblr discussion here. But what the heck, if you’d like to fly her around the world for her future pseudo-linguistic projects, she’s willing to trade her services as a druid.

…you know, I was thinking that these two things (unicorn poop and the “Hlingit world encyclopedia”) weren’t connected, but they totally are. Only she spent years on her unicorn poop, and I don’t think she means it as a hilarious joke.
