Why you’re drinking more during lockdown

“First you take a drink, then the drink takes a drink, then the drink takes you.” – F. Scott Fitzgerald. Alcohol consumption is the 7th leading death risk factor across the globe[i], yet remains one of the most socially accepted health vices. If you’re anything like me, many of you…

Moving across the world won’t change your life

Yesterday was my 34th birthday. By all accounts, that’s an age where one should be settled (whatever that means) and confident in their life path (oh, is there a map and a road I wasn’t aware of?). Last year, I wanted so much. What, I wasn’t sure. And looking back…

You can’t A/B test your own love life

“What if?” Those two little words, combined, are two of the most powerful words in the English language. Their whispers keep me up at night, and get me going in the morning. Hope and anxiety and second-guessing and possibility all tied up in 8 neat characters. Whenever I’m on the…

The 8 things you’ll experience when you tell people you’re moving

Moving is a natural part of growing into this life of ours. It’s how we stretch ourselves, expand networks, have new experiences, and compile fun stories to tell our grandchildren about that “one summer abroad” in college. I didn’t expect to leave my current home in San Francisco for quite…

This assignment to write haikus turned real dark, real fast

I wrote poems regularly as a teenager (*cringe*), but stopped as I got older and, allegedly, less angsty. Situations that would have created lines and lines of poorly constructed prose at 15 no longer affected me as I crossed over into my 30s. …

Singled out for being single (and what to do about it)

I’ve gotten used to being alone and most of the time, I rather like it. The fact that I travel alone, dine alone, and go on adventures alone has recently been a source of pride. Being a single woman of a certain age means accepting that if you wait for…

Using your dating app statistics to improve your love life

After only going on 4 dates in 10 months from dating app The League, I decided to deactivate my account. When I did so, I noticed something interesting I hadn’t seen before: Member stats. The metrics The League chose to include map astonishingly well to how people act in real…

My least favorite things people have said to me simply for walking

The #metoo posts in the past weeks have been powerful, but I watched from the sidelines and instead of joining their voices, simply clicked the heart on everyone’s brave posts. But I didn’t share my experiences or join in because what I’ve experienced is so “normal.” …

We tried making the Mushroom Swiss Burger from Modernist Cuisine and here’s what happened

We called it “science burger.” Because, frankly, that’s what it was. Weighing in at 52lbs and containing almost 2,500 pages, the Modernist Cuisine cookbook has been described by some as “the cookbook to end all cookbooks.” It focuses on the perfection of food; if a cookbook could earn a PhD…

What I learned being the back burner girl

I somehow made it to the ripe old age of 32 without ever having dated in the traditional sense. I had always just had a magical first encounter with someone, then become their girlfriend. Easy peasy. But as 2016 wrapped up and the new year started, I found I’d been…
