Creative Cooking With A Foodie Flair
Kiss me, I’m . . . hyper? Wait, that’s not it. Actually, my maiden name is Blann. Might as well be O’Blann, right? O’Blann of the Thistle and Shamrock. O’Blann and the Four-Leaf Clovers (that would be my band). O’Blann’s dancin’ her fifth jig out there, lassie! Top of the morning to her face! So [...]
Since the stupid stubborn snow refuses to melt, me thinks the clear solution is creamy potato soup. Look, I don’t want to get all annoyingly weather-obsessed on ya, but I’ve taken a peepsie into the long ranger forecast and me thinks we’re bound for some serious melting. Me also thinks that it’s probably the grossest [...]
It’s snow day #2 around herrr! Which doesn’t really change much for me and my normal routine, other than the addition of nauseated gripes from my husband’s “work station” at the kitchen table as he witnesses me Huluing missed episodes of The Carrie Diaries and The Mindy Project. It’s like, look chachi, no one asked [...]
It’s Friday story time! Oh don’t act like this is the worst thing that’s ever happened to your life. So a few weeks ago I was beboppin’ around on the netz, when all of the sudden I got an email from an old friend whom I’ve known for about 8 years I think. Did I [...]
Mmmmmmyyyyokay. It looks like we’re going to make it. It looks like we’re going to pull through. I’d say about 8 feet of the snow melted yesterday, along with my anxiety. Yay! We’re headed back to Fayetteville today because GUESS WHAT. Okay, you might not know this about me, but somewhere in my youth (name [...]
Last time I’ll eeeeeever ever ever ever ever mention Thanksgiving or turkey or taters or leftovers or gobble or gibble or gooble or geeble, I swear it! Not really though on the gobble through geeble part. Oh! Let’s start a jam band called Gobble Through Geeble. I’ll play banjo. And wear a hemp necklace. Have [...]
Let’s face it. You totally have your Thanksgiving meal all planned out. Signed, sealed, delivered. Hook, line and sinker. (wait, what?) Rollin’ with the homies. (what does that . . . what?) Skip to my Lou. (I’m sorry, who’s Lou?) Cuz I’m bad. (no, no you’re not.) Buuuut just in case you don’t, and your [...]
I’m actually kind of speechless. Except for the fact that I’m not. Ohhhhh, you guys I’m this close to losing the last of my one and a half marbles over these cheesy stacks of splendor and I want to use all caps so bad but I’m trying to be better about it but we all [...]
Mex Mex Mex! Mex-a-Roo! Mex Mania! Mex to the Max! Mexa Moxa Mixa seriously end this already for the love before you throw yourself out the nearest window? Look. Imon’ be straight wicha. I accidentally made quite possibly the creamiest Macaroni and Cheese all spiced up Mexi-style. It’s actually quite difficult for my heart to [...]
Sooo, does a white plush robe, a broken wooden spoon, and my guidance towards little green lentils into a pot make me a shepherd? Hey, I just drove 14 hours all by my lonesome. I’m a little delirious in the membririous. I made these mini lentil sheps last week before I left for Arkansas and [...]
