It’s no secret I was on vacation last week. In fact, I’m pretty sure I mentioned it several times, and I would have shouted it from the rooftops if I could safely manage to climb up there and get good footing. Rooftops can be tricky surfaces, so I’m speaking metaphorically here. Today just so happens…
Week In Review: The Picture Edition
I had every intention of writing a witty and wonderful Week in Review post today. After all, I was on vacation last week, and I did manage to spend three blissful days in Buffalo visiting with the family. However, I also got home fairly late last night. Hey, 8 o’clock on a Sunday night IS late for me, so I opted to eat…
Ramp Risotto with Pine Nuts
I don’t consider myself to be a culinary genius. This may come as a surprise to many of you, considering my normally over inflated ego. While I love to cook and I certainly enjoy the eating part, I don’t think of myself as a fancy pants chef. Sometimes I don’t even wear pants, and I’ve been…
WIAW: The Local Love Edition
I’m a huge fan of all things local. I support the farmers and businesses in my area as often as possible. I do my best to avoid big box stores, with the exception of an occasional Costco trip, simply because our finances have changed and the in-laws have a membership. I haven’t stepped a single foot in a mammoth grocery store chain in a very long time;…
Week In Review: The Prodigal Son Returns Edition
Is it blasphemous to call myself the prodigal son? Can I even talk about my return when theoretically I came back from my blogging staycation last week? That beautiful Breakfast post didn’t just write itself. Although my Currently post might have, considering I was completely sleep deprived and over caffeinated when I coined most of it. You can’t…
Currently: May 2014
Well hellllllo there, Mr. May. Wouldn’t it be cool, and not at all mental, if I had some kind of pin up calendar, and I talked to it on a daily basis? We could pretend May is the month for sexy pharmacists. That sounds like a great plan to me. Then again, I like living in my own little fantasy world, although…
For The Love of Breakfast
I’m pretty sure the only thing that could shake me out of a self-imposed blogging break is a post about breakfast. Well played Arman, well played. Breakfast is kinda my shit. ♫ “Cause it’s the real shit, shit to make em feel shit. Lump em in the club shit.” ♫ Apparently it’s also the kind of meal to…
Week In Review: The I’m Not Ready Edition
I need more time. It turns out I’m not ready to jump off my blogging staycation train yet. It might be because I made little tangible progress, not to be confused with actual progress, on my recipe revamp project, although you will find a new category in my header section, which reads “Granola, Energy Bars, Nuts & Other Snacks.” Yes, I…
Week In Review: The Sixty-Fifth Edition
I’m not here today. You can’t hear me. You can’t see me. You probably can’t even read this right now. That’s right. I am a blogging Ninj-ress, which is the feminine version of Ninja. Obviously. I’d tell you to check Wikipedia just in case you had any doubts about my verbiage choices, but they need to update their…
Thinking Out Loud: The Blend Edition
So I did something crazy. No I didn’t get any more tattoos or pierce my nipples yet again. Ha, I’m totally kidding about that second one. While I like some bedroom (or kitchen or dining room table) foreplay, the idea of driving a fourteen gage needle through such a sensitive area makes me cringe even worse than discovering the…
