Sometimes in life ya just gotta stuff things in other things. I think for us women it obviously started at a young age, when we dutifully learned to stuff our, ahem, bras. And then it was basically mayhem from there. If there is something to stuff, we’ll stuff it. Give me that purse. I WILL […]

Lentil Salad with Roasted Red Peppers, Parsley and Almonds
The effect it had on me . . . It was like, my mind went completely numb. My throat closed in. My racing heart came to an abrupt halt, and then forgot how to beat for a good 20 seconds. My eyes froze, cried a tiny river, and then found their new happy place. My […]
Buffalo Cauliflower with a Yogurt Dipping Sauce
I can hardly contain myself right now. Would you mind if I told you why? WAIT WAS THAT A GROAN? First of all, remember when I told you all the liquid in my ear sacks spilled out onto the floor and I was dizzy and discombobulated and without a single trace of hope? WELL, they’ve […]
Asian-Spiced Mini Meatballs Over Vermicelli Noodles
I get excited about a lot of things in life. Thunderstorms, marula oil, strong coffee, boot cut jeans, the return of my favorite TV show(ssssssssss), thrifting, incense, pinpointing an eyelid twitch that’s been driving me bonk-a-lonk for hours, and Antiques Roadshow. But that’s just the tip of the Bevberg. (omg sorry) But this? Oh. THIS? […]
Fried Shrimp and Pork Dumplings with a Sweet and Sour Sauce
Fried Food Friday. You like it? Not that I feel this should be like, a thing. I’m just mighty fond of alliteration and good times, holmes. PLERS, I fry food like once every 24 millennia, so we have to celebrate! You know, celebrate good times. Come on. TRUTH BE TOLD: A) One of these days […]
Chicken Pot Pie Calzones
How do you call your lover boy? You stuff a chicken pot pie in his calzone. That’s freaking how. I’m having a mild aneurism over this whole thing actually. And actually, I do realize that I overuse the word actually. I overuse a lot of words on this blawg that probably make you want to […]
Coconut Soba Noodle Bowls
I like to call this one the Edible Snuggie. Wait, Slanket? You know what, I know this is a tense subject for many, so to appease you all, let’s all it the Edible Snankuggletie. Because that rolls off the tongue sooo easily. But really, when you’re down and troubled, and you need some loving care? […]
Easy Black Bean and Guacamole Tostadas
You know how when you close your eyes at night, images appear behind your eyelids? And it’s not your imagination really, they’re just random what-have-you designs that place themselves there without permission or inhibition? Do you know what I’m talking about? Well, the other night whilst in bed (am I a total troll using the […]
Homemade Pub-Style Beef Burgers
How about a burger? But wait. I don’t think y’awnderstaaaaand the situaaation. (said like Bill Cosby) It all started one Saturday morning last fall as I was meticulously planning the weekend with Pinterest in my lap and PBS on the TVs. Or as I like to call it: Inspiration Station. Don’t have a ticket? That’s […]
Chocolate Coconut Oatmeal Clusters
Or as I like to call them, Bev’s HA HA HA Attempt At Baking Cookies. Truth be told, these were actually my second attempt. Remember this? Rrrrright. I don’t know what I’m trying to prove here either. That I can bake cookies? That I should bake cookies? That if I want to pull up the […]
