Bon Appe-Tips!

Sooooo, here's a little something new Matt and I've been having fun with. We're calling this series Bon Appe-Tips, as—you'll see quite plainly—these videos include some great and/or questionable cooking and entertaining tips. Here are the first three. Enjoy!
As always, many thanks to Wesafari for the awesome music. And also, thanks to Neal and Jodi for their sweet cameos.

In somewhat related news, I'm teaching a blogging seminar and a fiction writing class this Fall. Check it out, and, Angelenos, if you're interested, sign up! It's going to be a lot of fun. Thanks!

    My god. I'm up late and trying to cackle softly so that I don't wake my boyfriend up (I'm not usually a late-night stalker; I feel the need to make this clear). But first I went wide-eyed in (shock? awe? stunned amusement?), then I slapped my hand to my head and started laughing like some cross between the Wicked Witch and the old lady I saw at Costco today. Thanks for keeping us laughing!

    p.s. I so want to sign up for your fiction course; alas, my only experience is investigative journalism/nonfiction (that, and I'm supposed to be traveling part of that time)! But out of curiosity, do you take newbies?

      Sarah, toootally! That class is actually perfect for beginners because it's a lot of writing exercises and short critique sessions... aka, no pressure!

      Alsooo, so glad you laughed at the TIPS!! :)

      I had a sneaking suspicion...

      I sent this link to my brother-in-law, my gateway to Dr. Steve Brule, and we proceeded to laugh like maniacs while watching it at our respective residences!

      Keep the Bon Appe-tips coming!

    Hi Anonymous!
    I'm pretty sure you're in the minority. It kinda takes a real a-hole to leave an anonymous comment like that on a site like this.

    Amelia: We love the tips! Keep 'em coming!

    This was even sexier than the movie I saw last night and it involved Russel Crowe with long hair playing a troubled but redeemable journalist.

    How did I not know you existed? Found you today, thanks be to hay suess. Loved your Robyn cover dance party. Made my weekend so much that I ditched my intended post for today and shared that little jewel with my whole world - which incidentally is only 4 people. But 4 super really important people who know a few other people who don't know anyone.

    So thanks for nothing b/c now I will spend the better part of my day devouring your archives rather than doing something productive like scrubbing my toilet or feeding my 4 yr old.

    God, I love your tips. You're like a female Steve Brule (for yer 'ealth!). Reminds me of something I might do if I a. had a cool loft in California, b. the guts to be silly on camera and c. had thought of it first. Brava. Brava.
