011: burn it
An interview about toast, Mary-Kate and Ashley, and martini's
Recently I had a virtual tea-time with
which was the perfect chance to spill about my love of style, toast and other things.Sorry in advance for the cringe photos.

ES: My first question is: why Style Toast? It’s such a great name.
BD: I just love toast. Honestly, I used to have another Substack called Harriet. The theme was “three-martini lunch,” which of course involves toasting. But it’s not just alcohol. Toast is my favorite food – I also think it’s a funny name to call something.
ES: What’s your preferred way to prepare toast?
BD: PB & J. I like raspberry preserves and Jiff creamy peanut butter.
ES: What kind of bread are we working with?
BD: My go-to bread is so boring. I buy Trader Joe’s bread or Dave’s Killer Bread; the three-seed is my favorite. If I’m feeling fancy, I like to buy Orwashers Righteous Rye at the farmer’s market.
ES: Who was your first fashion inspiration or influence?
BD: Honestly probably Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen. My friends and I always watched the VHS tapes, and I had a friend named Ashely. In third grade, we went as them for Halloween. That same year I was voted best dressed in our class. I never really let that go. Laughs.
