With beer and coffee grounds! So you know it’s about to get so good right now. I first played around with this recipe, oh . . . when was it, late September? Well we immediately collapsed into ourselves after one bite, so I obviously needed to a) remember it and b) make it for you! […]

Mexican Fiesta Bowls

Mexican Fiesta Bowls / Bev Cooks

It’s not what you think. This isn’t a taco salad bowl. Or a burrito bowl. Not really even a Straw Hats bowl. (even though it has fritos in it so don’t get all loco on me.) It’s a MEXICAN FIESTA BOWL – a) because that’s what my mom calls it, and b) apparently I used […]

Apparently my mouth thinks it’s still winter. Isn’t it wonderful? So, have you ever had Five-Alarm Chili? Da-hudes. It’s HOT. But I like my face to rain, so I don’t mind. Thing is, Aaron keeps buying bags of corn chips. Like Fritos, ya know. The ones that you plunge into bean dip. He won’t stop. […]

So the other night I went to a little karaoke shindig for a good friend’s birthday. And as I’m sure you can imagine, it was like an acid trip for me. Constantly on stage with the mic firmly planted in my competitive grip, and my ’90s dramatic ballad ready to spill out of my body […]

Chili Bread Bowls

Time for çheelee! That’s the way I say çhili. Cheelee. And you have to raise your eyebrows real high like those çreepy çartoony çharaçters in Soundgarden’s old video Blaçk Hole Sun. And the L sound has to be really enunçiated, like to the point where there’s almost spit in the çorners of your mouth. And […]
