David Foster Wallace's 'Consider the Lobster'

pourgirl - slightly agree with you. I went to university where Wallace taught, and though many of my English major colleagues worshiped him, I also thought Wallace was extremely self-righteous (and as for self-referential, well, he footnotes himself in his books). However that is part of his genius - almost like Hemingway, a person I would never enjoy being around, but whose writing I like precisely because of this.

The 'Mate Latte' Rhyme, Fated or a Coffee Shop Travesty?

I adore mate, both in traditional and more modern forms. I've also had mate chai and that was amazingly good.

Dinner Tonight: Kale-Flecked Mashed Potatoes

In Ireland it's called colcannon (minus the parmesan), and sometimes made with cabbage instead of kale. Here in Scotland we have a variation called rumple-de-thumps, which is potatoes 'flecked' with cabbage or kale, broccoli and cheese. Perfect for cold wet nights!
