The Downstairs part of the site includes light-hearted recipes from the Downstairs kitchen. All too
often I have read recipes and found them pitifully lacking in entertainment value. With these
recipes, I hope to remedy that want.
Also Downstairs are the journals, broken down chronologically and containing mostly humorous
essays, but with some, here and there, serious. Journal entries focus on my interests, which
have included over the years Indo-European languages,
literature, farmers' markets, fine food, home food, recreational eating,
the Segway (in my alter ego as Matte Gray, Senior Segwayer), the Prius, Haworthias, pro tennis, and social
issues in San Francisco.
My travelogues
are in the NoeHill Travel pages. See
Blue Highways Lite,
Dutch in Three Weeks,
Amsterdam by Segway,
Amsterdam by Foot,
Feeding Amsterdam,
Amsterdam for Free, and
coming in Autumn of 2008, The Fall of Amsterdam.
I normally insert links at the appropriate point in the text, but here I want
to recommend the blogs of some friends:
Arod in San Francisco,
Some Assembly Required, and
Queer Baby Making.
In the interest of full disclosure and to obviate the necessity of waterboarding this information
out of me, I will admit to conspiring with Jim by providing a little input for Some
Assembly Required. But he's the ringleader and put me up to it.
