Peanut Butter Burrito
"There are basically three things that happen on this blog. One, I post about law school and funny things I encounter in it, because that's hard to escape. Two, I post my creative writing and also write about trying to get it published, which has actually been happening as of late. And three, I've got plenty of rants, mushy crap, and filler, like any good blog."
Author: "Andrea" says that this blawg is about her "life as a mama, wife, writer, vegetarian, optimist, and soon-to-be immigration lawyer. It's named Peanut Butter Burrito after the kind of odd things a nth-generation Mexican-American like me likes to eat. Originally from Southern California, I've moved slowly east, teaching and studying and graduating from Harvard Law in 2008. As of September, I'll be a fellow at a immigration nonprofit in Boston representing people in detention. I've got a great husband who's a celebrity in the world of trivia nerds, and a sweet baby girl who I like to take pictures of.
