On my first date with Noel, way back in February of 2004, he took me to an Indian restaurant before we went to see a production of Sweeney Todd. Anxious to impress this guy that I knew I really, really liked, I didn’t have the nerve to tell him that I had never had [...]

So yeah. Yesterday we had the biggest snowfall ever here in Baltimore.

Officially, it looks the storm was measured as dropping 25 inches at BWI Airport, the official measuring station for Baltimore. But here in the Ratskellar outback, it looks like we got a lot more.

After two weeks of patiently watching me carry the beautiful bounty of cake class off to work, Noel was ready for a cake of his own. Well, not quite of his own, but one to take to work and share with HIS coworkers. His rationale–his office was operating on a Beth Sweets deficit. [...]
