Subscribe to Fishwives of Paris, my mythbusting French food podcast!I meant to spend the summer not-writing; instead, I wrote more than ever before, albeit in a new form barely big enough to be considered a vignette. These quick, free-form poems have quickly become a massive part of my life; it feels, sometimes, like the day hasn't really begun until I've written my poem, a sensation that has made me all the more aware of something I’ve long intuited: I don't feel like
