I was working on a client’s site recently, and they sent me a screen shot with their address in the header of the site, saying the postal code was off center. At first I thought I had messed up my Sass styles on the media query for small screens. Then, I realized what was going on: Safari in…

How I Think About Cooking Food
One summer in elementary school I stumbled on the 80s/90s classic show, Great Chefs, Great Cities. I can still hear the theme song in my head! The show captured my attention.
