Space Coke!
Yes, I tried it. Yes, I liked it. It didn’t change my life or anything, and I’ll probably get some more of it at some point, but I don’t consider this stuff essential. I don’t much know how to describe the … Continue reading
Pizza Thoughts
Raise your hand if you grew up in a town with terrible pizza. [raises hand] OK, good. I’m not alone. But more on that later. Today is apparently National Pizza Day. I have no idea why today is National Pizza Day, … Continue reading
“She’ll probably add something unnecessary, like raisins”
A culinary note from this year’s Thanksgiving: My favorite Thanksgiving dish has always been the stuffing. Always, always, always. My ranking goes stuffing, corn, rolls/biscuits, turkey. (I am not a mashed potatoes fan, but that’s not the point here.) My … Continue reading
Yes, I ate the whole thing.
The “whole thing” being a pork tenderloin sandwich at Frank Gourmet Hot Dogs, a favorite joint of ours. Luckily for us, Frank is located in one of the northern suburbs of Buffalo, a good 35-minute drive away, which means that … Continue reading
Chili: Done! (an update)
Readers may recall that earlier today I discussed how to make a pot of chili. I have now completed the pot of chili. The Wife made cornbread to go with it (because cornbread is the thing that goes with chili), and … Continue reading

The Strooping of the Waffles! (Or is it the Waffling of the Stroop?)
So, like many others in this COVID hellscape, the search for entertainment of a more cheerful kind, to take our minds off the dystopian virus-afflicted nightmare world in which we live, has led us to The Great British Baking Show. … Continue reading

Orange Soda
A favorite treat of mine is orange soda, but it’s on my list of tastes that I rarely indulge because it’s just not super-healthy. (OK, it’s not really healthy at all, but you know what I mean.) But now…orange soda … Continue reading
Of Arm Jabs and Soup Memories
Yesterday I got my second injection of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine, which means that in about two weeks, when my immune system has had time to do all the processing work it has to do, I’ll be fully vaccinated against … Continue reading
