Amidst all the awfulness, it’s good to see two new books published on my Configurations series!

On the left, “amethyst sweetbread” ube cookie (Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser recipe). On the right, same recipe except for 30g more flour. Although both are tasty, the one on the right is *much* closer to what we ate on board.

Black and white cookies, attempt #1. Tasty — has the right flavors — but could be a bit cake-ier.

As a last Christmas cookie bake I present my mom’s candy cane cookies. NOW it’s Christmas. I think she would have been happy with these.

I did also bake some sugar cookies, and candy cane cookies are in the queue for Monday.

Fresh off the presses — the latest book in the #Configurations series I am privileged to edit. Oded Löwenheim’s brilliant reflective account of using his Jerusalem campus as an object in his teaching of international studies. Pedagogical autoethnography at its finest.

Chocolate-glazed pfeffernüsse to begin the holiday baking season (even though most of my German friends would not consider these authentic pfeffernüsse, since they are not gingerbread-y enough)

Some days are better than others — like the day you get a signed Christmas card from your favorite band @marillion.com

Basically the only piece of Spartan-logo-ed clothing I have remaining from undergrad. Cleaning out the coat closet this morning but keeping this for its nostalgia vibes.

Randy McStine was kind enough to let me use some of his lyrics as the epigraph to my latest book. Happy to meet up with him at a gig last night and present him with a copy!
