Food Is Fun!!!
One of the Finest of Meals, originally uploaded by Jaquandor. I haven’t blogged about food lately, so…here’s a post about food. :: Up there in the photo is my dinner from the other night, when The Family and I went … Continue reading
Hmmmm…needs more dog.
A lot of my search engine traffic is for my recipe for Chicken Wing Soup, so I figure I owe it to those folks to note that I tinkered with my recipe and made it, in my opinion, better by … Continue reading
Suck it, Girl Scouts!
Well, I suppose that title may be putting things a bit…strongly. And definitely rudely. Sorry about that, Girl Scouts. But! Everybody loves Girl Scout Cookies, right? I know that I do. I love cookies in general, but the Girl Scout … Continue reading

A quick thought on “Master Chef”
It’s basically American Idol with food, which is fine, because Hell’s Kitchen is basically The Apprentice with food. Oh, and another quick thought: I’d like to go on this show, if only because when I got in there to cook, … Continue reading
Get in there and make the dish!
Notes on Hell’s Kitchen. Spoilers, so highlight to read: :: Ahhh, the “taste it and make it” challenge. :: I didn’t think I could loathe Benjamin any more than I already did going into this episode, but damned if he … Continue reading
