  • I have so many! Mostly food, some others though.

    Carla Lalli Music is an entertaining chef and recipe developer who shares recipes from her books. She takes inspiration from all sorts of cuisines and blends them into delicious, adaptable recipes. Crispy gingery ground beef like lime and herbs earned an instant spot in my regular meal rotation.

    Claire Saffitz and her team bring mostly baking videos with occasion forays into cocktails, dinners, and lifestyle. Expect lots of cat cameos and fun editing easter eggs.

    NYT Cooking has Sohla and Ham El-Waylly, a wildly creative culinary power couple who can make a multi course tasting menu out of anything. Sohla has other solo stuff scattered around, she opts to do work with other channels rather than host her own though.

    Minutefood is food science, and even if you think your food science knowledge is good, you’ll still probably learn something from Kate.

    Simone Giertz and Laura Kampf are both makers (who are friends and often collaborate).


  • One line that stuck out to me regarding the outcomes of the fecal transplants was ‘improved gastrointestinal symptoms’. If people with ASD have higher rates of GI-related issues, then the findings of this paper could be really helpful in understanding and improving treatments for GI problems in patients with ASD. Of course I understand the skepticism that this work could be used to try and cure something that doesn’t need to be cured, but my hope is that the more likely outcome is a more holistic understanding of ASD that leads to better medical care across all areas of health.



  • First barbecue of the summer! First barbecue with friends as an independent adult too, really. I love to cook for people and have two perfect summer recipes picked out to make this weekend- arugula salad with steak and parm, and a spicy cucumber-watermelon salad. And then Sunday will be full of chores :(
