Fried chicken is good, right? And why is that? It’s because of the crispy, breaded chicken skin. Okay, hear me out. I know this is going to sound a little unconventional but… what if you got rid of the meat? I know that’s a fat girl move. I know that Twitter sensation, @shitfatgirlssay would be…
I type this as I look out the window on snow covered trees and big beautiful flakes falling to the ground. Faintly, outside, I hear my neighbor spinning his tires trying to get out of the driveway. It’s beautiful. No, seriously. I fucking love winter. Here it is, February and people are complaining that the…
I love baseball. I can get behind basketball. But I don’t love football. What I DO love about football is the excitement, friendly rivalries and massive amounts of beer and junk food that surround football fandom. So I can get behind the football culture, regardless of whether or not I give a shit about the…
My mom was a working, single parent with feisty children. But the house was always clean, food was always on the table, we got our vitamins and went to bed on time every night. Thinking back on it, the poor thing probably didn’t have any time for herself at all. But I will remember my…
I have to say, I’ve never seen nor read Charlotte’s Web. But I couldn’t resist a fun title that alludes to eating something that you all love so much. Not to mention the double meaning of the word fall. BOOM. Oh wait, did you actually want to hear about the food itself and not my…
One year ago today, I posted my first recipe on Bacon and Legs. It was tasty, but not very pretty and the photography was definitely uninspired. I think I’ve come a long way throughout the past year. I’ve settled into my niche, I’ve found my voice and my recipes have improved as has my photography….
There are a few questions, that if you were to ask me, I know that my opinion would be the opposite of the general public. The Beatles or the Monkees? Well, the Monkees, obviously. Heads or Tails? Tails. I always pick tails. Would you rather have a horse-sized duck or a hundred duck-sized horses? A…
This might be my favorite themed post to-date. I love It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia (so fucking much). I’m intimately connected with it because it takes place in my city. And, holy shit, the recipe is out of this world. I knew I wanted to do something that was just SOAKED in Philly for my…
My favorite foods change quite often. Tastes change. Moods change. But there are a few constants. Cheese. Potatoes. Beer. So when I’m brainstorming recipes, I think I naturally gravitate toward these things. Cause what’s better than cheese, potatoes and beer? Pasta. Adding pasta to the mix could help. Ok, I’m convinced. Let’s make this happen……
I grew up on hearty, delicious, simple comfort food. To this day, my favorite foods revolve around the recipes my mom made for me when I was a kid. One of my ultimate favorites and what I always want when I’m sick is not chicken noodle soup, (cause I’m a fat kid at heart) but…
