In Which Professor Molly Learns There Is, In Fact, Such a Thing as Bad Publicity
It’s spring break. Donnie’s taken the baby to visit relatives on the mainland, and Professor Molly finally has time to catch up on the assessment paperwork she owes the Student Retention Office.
Molly’s new renter is a social media star seeking privacy in remote Mahina. The arrangement seems to be working out–until her celebrity renter disappears. Molly and her best friend Emma dutifully call in the Mahina PD and try to stay out of the way. But when fame creates its own reality distortion field, everyone has an angle and nothing is as it seems.
About Frankie Bow
Like Professor Molly, Frankie Bow teaches at a public university. Unlike her protagonist, she is blessed with delightful students, sane colleagues, and a perfectly nice office chair.

Her experience with academic publishing has taught her to take nothing personally.

Check out the recipe!
Professor Molly Barda loves eating. Cooking, not so much. Back in her single days, she never once turned on the stove. (It would have turned out badly if she had, as she used it for overflow shoe storage.)
Now that she’s married to a professional restaurateur, Molly has even less need to flex her culinary muscles. Donnie is happy to cook for both of them.
But Molly does have a couple of easy go-to recipes that she can pull out in case of emergencies. Here’s one of her favorites:
Cioppino is an Italian-American tomato-based seafood stew. Here is a version that even Molly can’t mess up:
Ridiculously Easy Cioppino:
Ingredients:
1 24 oz. (680 g) jar Arrabbiata pasta sauce (Safeway Signature Select is a good one)
2 pounds (907 g) of white fish and/or shellfish, of which at least one pound is raw, peeled, frozen shrimp. (Thawed or not? It’s up to you. If you leave it frozen it’ll just take longer to bring to a boil.)
1 32-oz (907 g) carton of chicken or seafood stock
Optional: Sourdough bread, cooked riced cauliflower, or tofu shirataki noodles
House Tofu Shirataki Noodle
1 big 5-7 quart pot
Directions:
1. Pour the pasta sauce and the stock into the pot.
2. Stir the pasta sauce-stock mixture and bring it to a boil.
3. Stir in the cold seafood and bring back up to a boil a second time.
4. As soon as it starts to boil the second time, cover it and remove it from the heat. If you cook it too long, the shrimps will shrink and get tough.
Serve with sourdough bread unless you’re watching your carbs. In that case, try serving it over riced cauliflower or shirataki noodles. Or just eat it plain, you don’t need that other stuff.
