Austin food blogger Addie Broyles featured me on her Relish Austin blog for The Austin American Statesman. She asked me to make a blackout poem from one of her columns, so this is what I came up with.
She also asked me a few questions:
What three things are always in your fridge? To quote the title of my friend Bill Keaggy’s book, Milk Eggs Vodka.
What’s your favorite condiment? If I ever drown myself, it’ll be in Mi Madre’s salsa.
What’s your go-to snack while reading/working with a newspaper? Almonds…and beer.
See the condition of our fridge after a party at our house: “Austin Kleon: What’s in Your Fridge Friday?”
Hi Austin, came across your work through lostateminor.com and I think it’s really wonderful.
Thanks, Syarah! Very happy you made your way here. :)
I love it! Thanks so much for writing that poem and sharing your fridge. Might even have to play around with a Sharpie and this weekend’s paper to see what fun things I can come up with…
Addie – my pleasure. Share what you come up with! http://newspaperblackout.tumblr.com
