Refried Beans & Tahini

We may not have gotten snow in New York yet this winter, but we’re sharing our most embarrassing snow-related memories to keep the winter spirit alive and well until the first snowstorm. Come for the snow stories, stay for Emily’s wildly unrelated story.  Also, don’t forget that you can join our fan club any time, and an exciting update: you can now gift annual Patreon fan club memberships! Let Santa know he can check our website, or use the below Patreon link, to learn more. Then of course, we’re getting into the books. This week, we got short stories, a memoir, historical non fiction, and literary fiction! Variety is the spice of life, babyyyy.
