About

I am a singer, song-writer, poet, performer and house-husband currently living in New Orleans, Louisiana. I grew up on a chicken farm in Central Mississippi. As could be expected given this upbringing, I have a great deal of hatred for chickens. When I was seven, I killed one with a softball bat over a matter of honor.

I do admit to finding them quite tasty.

I am a sub-compact-driving liberal who subsists on a diet of NPR news and sushi. I work in bars and restaurants.  I have no middle name. My favorite color is black. My favorite band is the Beatles. This all sounds terribly boring, even as I type it.

I’ve not been updating this blog as much lately, (5-9-13), but intend to make an effort to start again. There will continue to be some recipes and maybe more poetry; to be honest I’ve had quite the block as regards the latter, lately. You all will be first to know if that changes, I suppose.
