Do you remember the movie Somewhere in Time? With Christopher Reeve, Christopher Plummer and Jane Seymour? I hadn’t seen it since, hmmm, I’m guessing the ’80s probably, and I watched it again while making these breakfast taco cups last weekend, and I can’t stop thinking about it. The movie, not the taco cups. Oh I’m […]

Slow Cooker Chipotle Steak Quesadillas
I gave you my Valentine’s Day food yesterday so that today I could give you these. I gave her my heart and she gave me a pen. (name that movie) I’ve always wondered exactly what kind of pen she gave him. Because I like pens! I would have been excited about the pen. This is, […]
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 […]
Loaded Turkey Taco Salads
Noooow this is the story all about how this meal got flipped turned upside down. And I’d like to take a minute, just sit right there I’ll tell you how this taco became a salad with dope flair. In the west of the pantry shy of arms and laigs Sat a sweet potato livin’ out […]

FROOOOOSTY THE SNOWMAAAAN WAS A JOLLY HAPPY SOUUUUUUUUUUL. Well guess what, fah-reshy fresh. We got snow! Don’t ask me how much though because to me it’s all 17 feet. No matter how little or how much, 17 feet. Even the lightest dusting, 17 feet. “MY CAR IS COVERED IN 17 FEET OF SNOW I’M STUCK […]

Sriracha Chicken Pozole
I have a few questions for you today. This is some serious stuff too. So sit down. You’re actually probably already sitting down, I realize, unless you’re in line at the DMV reading this on your phone, which in that case, ew. But if you’re in line at the post office with a bunch of […]
Jalapeno Popper Chicken Chili
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 […]
