If I break out in “UNDA DA SEA,” are you going to punch me? Look at those tentacles! I’ve never had tentacles on my plate before. I like tentacles on my plate. Don’t tell Ariel I said that. This dish is something ELSE, y’all. I know it might seem a smidge unapproachable, but a) you […]

Steamed Mussels with Fries – A Wine Pairing with Noble Vines
*This post is definitely in partnership with Noble Vines wine, but all opinions and gulping are my own. We coo?* I’m not 100% lizard! Wait, I should explain. Remember about six or seven weeks ago, when I spit in that tiny clear tube, added a milky blue liquid substance to it, shook it up and […]
Lobster Rolls
Today I’m 40. FORTY. I have no idea what this is supposed to look or feel like, but I just bought myself a birthday tongue scraper and jogging visor, so I feel this is pretty much on target. (You’re like, “Waaaay too early in the morning for the words tongue scraper, lady.”) Remember when people […]
Creamy Salmon, Broccoli and Potato Bake
*WARNING: What you are about to see is not the most photogenic dish in the world. Stars did not align. Colors did not agree. I still have this mole I need looked at. But you must know the flavors in this meal are atmospheric. Transcendent. Orbital. You may now proceed. Have you ever thought about […]
Beer-Battered Fried Calamari Pizza
Babies and pizza! Not to be confused with babies IN pizza. Or babies ON pizza. Or baby pizza. Jess, I’ve been waiting months (years, CENTURIES . . . MILLENNIUMS) to tell you something of utmost vital importance. This is your virtual baby showeeeerrrr! (said like Oprah) Ashley and I came together and rounded up 9257345234 […]
One-Pan Coconut Shrimp Noodle Bowls
So have you heard about this one-pan pasta craze? This one-pan pasta cray cray craze? WHY did I just do that. I’ve been doing so well. I first saw it on one of Martha’s 15 billion cooking shows. Then after that I started seeing it on 17 trillion blogs. Then after that I started […]
Beer-Steamed Clams
Doesn’t beer-steaming sound like the most wonderful thing on Earth? (But first, a quick apology at how blurry these photos are. It was pouring rain and my hair was on fire and I think my neurological system was experiencing some malfunctions.) That said, I seriously think I could beer-steam everything ever. Beer-steamed chicken? Why not? […]
Crab Salad with Celery
Oh oops there’s jumbo lump crab in this salad, oops. Sure it’s Friday and sure it’s always to fun to end the week with something super decadent and oozy and rich and slow-motion-in-front-of-a-fan worthy. Sure. But get this. We can totally do that with this crab and celery salad! Oh but we can! ALLOW ME […]
Linguine with Pesto and Seared Scallops
I don’t even know where to begin. And that frightens you, doesn’t it? As you can see, I have zero process shots. Or as my brain likes to Sean Conneryize it, “zhero proshesh shotsh.” But I can explain! (the no shots, not the Sean Conneryizing) Remember the video that we shot at my house a […]
Creamy Tomato and Crab Fettuccine
Moooore creaaaaaaam. I don’t know what’s gotten into me with all the dreamy creamy hoopla this week. Perhaps it’s a result of all the rain we got last weekend, causing our grass to green up a few shades, causing me to soar into spasticsphere for a mental hoedown, causing me to discover a rather new […]
