Accessibility and Lobstah Rolls

Hey Friend!

Thanks for subscribing to my newsletter!

I plan to write about a number of different topics, but mostly it will be some tech, some lobster, some humor(hopefully) in this newsletter. I don't know about you? But I could use a good laugh during the day.


Here's what is going on.

Major Projects In Progress 🖥

  1. A restaurant website built with Eleventy.
  2. A new theme for Style Stage.
  3. A lobster-themed zine called "Crustacean Vacation".
  4. A podcast called the "Front End Nerdery Podcast" where I have my first 6 guests lined up.

Spicy Link of the Month 🌶

Ten modern layouts in one line of CSS

Una Kravets takes us on a great ride down the road of one-line CSS layouts you can use today! So much spicy goodness!

A11y Tip of the Month ♿️

Instead of settling for WCAG AA compliance, take it a step further and go for AAA compliance! When you go above and beyond, not only does it benefit your users and yourselves, but any future work done by new people on the project.

Joke of the Month 😆

Two software testers went into a diner and ordered two drinks. Then they produced sandwiches from their briefcases and started to eat. The owner became quite concerned and marched over and told them, “You cannot eat your own sandwiches in here!”

The testers looked at each other, shrugged their shoulders and then exchanged sandwiches.


Recipe of the Month

If you're like me and love lobster 🦞 then you'll love this recipe for Lobster Bisque. Trust me, it's really good!

Maine Lobster Bisque


I've set up the podcast and you can have a listen on most of your favorite podcast devices! My first guest is booked and I will announce who that is next month!

Don't forget that you can catch me streaming on Twitch, support me on Patreon, and follow me on Twitter! You can find the links below where you can find me and ask any questions you may have.

Until then, make something great!
