Fiction, poetry, book reviews, and literary wanderings. From medieval legends to Chicano speculative fiction, stories have a way of leading me into unexpected places.

Kitchen & Memory

Recipes, culinary history, baking adventures, and the stories food preserves. A continuation of the explorations that began with Doña Lupe's Kitchen.
Gardens, landscapes, art, France, and lifelong learning. An exploration of the places, ideas, and curiosities that keep my imagination growing.

Worlds & Margins

Fiction, essays, scholarship, and notes from the Choloverse. A home for stories, questions, and ideas that cross boundaries.
