Am I the only one who desperately wants to pet those little chickpeas and call them Frank? This appetizer! First of all, I can’t take credit for it. It’s not mine. But I did inhale 5/8ths of it in 12 minutes flat. Does that count? My sweetie pie/travel partner gal friend Sonja of A Couple […]
It’s not too early in the year for buffalo, is it? (THIS IS WHERE YOU SAY “NEVER.”) It’s a buffalo chicken twist, you guys. And it is a bloomin’ game-day show stopper. And EASY. And you get to shred a rotisserie chicken so there’s therapy involved. And buffalo sauce. Praises. So awwwwl yew gonna do […]
I put blue cheese first in the title because BLUE CHEESE. Okay, let’s talk about New Year’s Eve, please. What do you do?! Venture out? Hermit in? Invite your best pals over to play Pictionary? (“Draw something resembling ANYTHING.” <–name that movie.) Stay up past midnight? Go to bed at 8pm like normal? GUYS, I’m […]
Bites, Nuggets, Bombs, Gobs, Blasts. You know. GUYS. The gremlins are about to be home, in my house, in my face, under my feet, in my way, in the air, for t w o w e e k s. (send wine.) So I made pizza rolls! For myself! Just kidding, for them. And myself. And […]
YES I’M THAT PERSON WHO PUT SHEPHERD’S PIE ON WAFFLE FRIES. (sorry to scream.) I think the question is, why wouldn’t we? Plus it’s been forever since I’ve had a good ol’ waffle cut fry, so the idea of a crunchy, baked carby canoe o’ bliss shoveling all that beefy shepherd’s pie filling straight into […]
Four ingredients. FOUR. Four! f o u r. And one of them is cheese, so you’re clearly already ahead in life. Let’s talk Christmas appetizers! My goal here for you is ease. You know those old-school sausage cheese balls that we all made in the ’80s and ’90s for the church potlucks? OKAY, it’s that, […]
You did see the word cheesy, right? (This post is in partnership with Harvesters! But we’ll get to that.) You know my obsession with Bittman’s no-knead bread. I make it 87 times a day and blab about it 157 times a day. It’s an unstable mental condition and I won’t do a single thing about […]
WITH BRANDY IN IT. It has brandy in it, but I felt like the title would slap my face if I included that. This galette is a major problem, guys. Because. My whole vision was a holiday appetizer. You make one, you slice it up, and you serve tiny, adorable pie-shaped slices on a platter […]
WINE. There’s just no other way to begin this blog post (or any blog post for that matter). I went to Washington! Washington State. Wine country. Don’t you just love the words wine and country back to back? A few weeks ago, I had the incredible opportunity to fly to Washington (and sleep in a […]
I will not open with a beet pun. I will not open with a beet pun. I will not open with a beet pun. Look at those beets! Just look at ’em! I grew them. I grew the beets. I’ve been noodling around with gardening for about 13 years now, yet I’m still amazed that […]
