Jared Axelrod is an author, an illustrator, a graphic designer, a sculptor, a costume designer, a podcaster and quite a few other things that he's lost track of but will no doubt remember when the situation calls for it.
He is a founding member of the daily flash-fiction website 365 TOMORROWS, and the writer and producer of two science-fiction podcasts, “The Voice Of Free Planet X” and the serial “Aliens You Will Meet.
He is not domestic, he is a luxury, and in that sense, necessary.

Allez cuisine!!!
March 3rd, 2009
If memory serves me right, two equally matched cooking talents did battle last Saturday. Yours truly squared off against none other than the mighty Kate Eckert, cooking up a storm of which there truly can be no comparison.
Luckily we had a competent Chairman to reign us in.
But what ingredient did Chairman Collins have in store for us?
MUSHROOMS!!!
I put together five savory dishes and one sweet dish with this impressively varied ingredient:
Portobello lasagna bites with manchego cheese
Korean-style oyster mushrooms in fried rice
Mushroom ragout
Cremini mac & cheese
Cream of mushroom pie
Fried shitaki and goat cheese dumplings
Kate masterfully created 4 savory dishes and one sweet dish, proving the versatility of this ingredient yet again:
Stuffed button mushrooms
Emu egg frittata with beech mushrooms and sultanas
French mushroom soup with gruyere and puff pastry
Filet mignon with oyster and portabella sauce, topped with balsamic glaze and creme fraiche
“The Tentacle” brown sugar-glazed portobella mushroom slices
The winner by judgment: Kate! Despite the incredibly close battle, she gained a three point lead to dominate the competition!
Further details of the match will have to wait until I finish editing the video.
