I hate bones in my food. They freak me out. When I’m out to dinner, I scan the menu for dishes that might include the bone almost before anything. I will never forget my first buffalo chicken wing either. It was my senior year of college and I left an embarrassing amount of meat on the bone.
I’ve got a few blog posts in the works. There has been a fair amount of cooking in the works that I’m trying to document … but I’m behind schedule. Pretend to be shocked. I’m in the process of writing up some crockpot chicken recipes … BACON JAM … and maybe some roasted brussel sprouts.…
If you’ve ever read this blog before, you know that sometimes it takes me a long time to write things down. I mean to do it but then I get distracted with wine, the ocean, and maybe avoiding doing dishes. But, this particular recipe has been listed as “coming soon” since July 4th …. 2011.…
I’m not really into food fads .. unless of course it’s bacon or sourdough bread. The idea of cutting something out of my diet completely is a bit terrifying to me. I’m not very good at self restraint unless there is a light at the end of the tunnel. That’s why I’m pretty good at…
I tend to source my recipes from the interwebs … which is a sin considering how many cookbooks I have on my apartment shelves. Yes, plural. I love looking at cookbooks but rarely crack a page open to when looking for inspiration. I fall in love with the pictures … but then tend to forget…
It’s 10:30 PM on a Sunday and I’m tired. I’m tired but the amazing beef stew that I made today is too hot to jam into tupperware. I know this because I already melted one of my containers just a minute ago. Lesson learned. I’m working on my patience.
I’m always willing to try something new. And, it’s soup season bitches. So, let’s all get on this carby liquid diet. Let’s be real. I’ll never be on a diet. I first saw this soup on Feed Me Phoebe’s blog soon after I got back from the pig roast in Vermont. Phoebe was part of…
I’m really great at hibernating. Hibernating means sweatpants, giant pots of coffee, and eating all day long. With Hurricane Sandy visiting us for a few days this week, I was given the opportunity to practice my hibernation skills. Since we knew about this weather event for nearly a week before it showed up, I got…
A couple weeks ago … post fridge death 2012 … I was gifted some amazing goods by my friend Asti and her mom. And by goods, I mean wonderful dairy products courtesy of some cute Jersey cows in Vermont. For about 10 days, I was using whole milk … yes, whole … in my coffee…
I have a huge weakness for carbs. Specifically bread … and not of the whole wheat variety. Whole wheat can take a hike and never come back … just kidding. Kind of. I’ve attempted to make bread a few times before, some that I’ve documented on the blog… some pre-blog. It feels like bread is…
