I went through a couple of names trying to figure out what the name of this blog would be before settling on The Magpie Stash. I tried to find a name that was not incredibly pretentious sounding and yet was representative of me in some way. I can’t say whether I succeeded or not. But here we are.

I’ve been in a bit of a writing slump (and health slump–health landslide, really) which has resulted in me being very unmotivated to write. This blog will be an exercise in habitual writing. Because after all, you can’t really call yourself a writer if you don’t well, write.

So welcome to my stash of sorts. My nest of recipes, ramblings, bad advice, quasi-intellectual philosophizing, and occasional shiny objects.

Cheers,

— M.
