...and you'll find there are actually two Nancy Yos-es (Yos-i?). Kind of odd. I'm not the one who writes feminist things for the Oprah website, bless her heart. If you keep Googling, you'll find me in a few, a very few back issues of Commentary, First Things, and American Heritage, and in The Times of Northwest Indiana, The Shopper, The Southtown Star, and in a lovely, now-defunct magazine called Violet, which used to be run by jazz musician Charles Mingus' daughter Keki. Then I tried blogging. (Mom said I should.) I have five. Sometimes I cross-post to Chef's Blade and FoodBuzz, and I write at Helium. Find me at eHow, too, and I am the Chicago Baking Examiner for Examiner dot com. And oh, in between times, I got a job at a (now defunct) wine shop. That was fun. And, like geeky Miles in Sideways, ... I find lately I'm really getting into rieslings.
