Travel Theme: New
the ghost and his significant other cook
What better time to start implementing change than the first days of the New Year when our bodies and minds are in post NYE slow mode? With a real lack of motivation towards the preparation of anything requiring more than lifting a corner of saran wrap, Across the Bored decided to bestow the chef’s hat upon other members of the clan not quite as familiar with the workings of the kitchen. With a bit of guidance from the Professor, the results were decidedly… not bad!

The bluebird sings a lullaby, the firefly gives a light,
The twinkling stars are candles bright, Sleep, Faeries all, Good Night.
~Elizabeth T. Dillingham, “A Faery Song”
