Sip – {Pecan Praline Cake}

October 8, 2010 by Whisk Kid

After carefully checking it for lingering traces of peanut butter, I plunge the blunt-end of a butter knife into my tall thermos.

July 18, 2010 by Whisk Kid

Exhausted and nauseous, I wobble on weak ankles as D, C and I walk along the stables to D’s car. The paved surface below my feet is a refreshing change from that of the rest of the fairgrounds. The smoothness is, admittedly, a little disorienting; after being thrown and flipped for the better part of…
