My butter tart recipe, as promised. Disclaimer: I’m not a pastry chef. I’ve baked these many times, and I’m always happy with the results but I’ve just written up the recipe for the first time – including the metric conversion, as requested – so your results may differ. Butter tarts are a Canadian thing. I bake […]

WARNING: THE FOLLOWING EXCERPT MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS FOR I SEE ME, ORACLE 1 CHAPTER ONE “There are zombies in Florida.” I looked up from ironing butterfly patches onto my well-worn blue jeans just as Lina, the owner of the laundromat, plugged another quarter into one of the dryers in the bank she’d commandeered for the day.
