Whoomp! (Here It Is)

Party on, party people: let me hear you touch the ground! In “Cooking,” What’s The Matter With Me? Podcast has all the pots on, the gas is burning and we’re ready to go. This episode touches on cooking through limitations, self-imposed or otherwise (like a disability), with a trip to the military-industrial grocery store we know and love as Target, cooking @christinatosi with the kids and watching @majordomomedia food TV.

Shopping List

We’re getting ingredients to make Rocky Road Sandwich Squares and some blondies from Christina Tosi’s Milk Bar: Kids Only book. We changed plans and instead of our trip to the market in Berkeley, we headed to the desiccated old mall in San Leandro, to hit the Target for our military-industrial shopping list:



  • 2 bags mini marshmallows (10.5 oz each)
  • 1 bag semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 bag white chocolate chips

At Target, there is aisle signage calling out the marshmallow section, where it’s marshmallows floor-to-ceiling.

New Wheelchair

in December, I got a new wheelchair. It’s got a lot of good things about it: better fit, faster and more rugged. As with anything, there is a learning curve, and I’m trying to figure out the best way to use it.

Majordomo Media Is Food TV Done Different


For those interested, whether by absolute necessity or purely whimsical flights of fancy, in taking a different look at food, I recommend majordomo media and it’s warren of YouTube channels. They make stuff with extremely unpretentious approaches, some of which are more-or-less accessible. At least. it’s a different type of food tv, a bridge between daytime cooking shows and food influencers. It’s refreshing.


Otherwise you’ll have to watch the I love Diet Coke guy.


Hip Hop Journalism

I wend to the San Leandro Public Library and scored some hip hop books. I put the Chronicles Of Doom on hold, and it recommended the others, so I bagged ail three.

Blank Faceless Underwear

I bought a postapocalyptic 4 pack of underwear from Costco, boxer briefs, black, blank. Faceless and nameless, unidentified remains, here I come.
