I’ve been listening to some Christmas music… a lot of Christmas music… lately. But I’ve been actually listening to it and processing the lyrics. I have to say, I don’t like what I’m hearing. I’ve even put together my list of Top Five Most Fucked Up Christmas Songs. Merry Little Christmas – I thought this…
There’s something to be said about a solidly delicious pie after Thanksgiving dinner. It’s classic and comforting. Seeing as I’m not a pumpkin girl, I decided to go with an apple pie. I hear it’s American or something. Well, I American’d it up some more by adding some bourbon caramel to it. (Any excuse, right?) It’s…
Beer!? For Breakfast!? I don’t know about you guys, but when I’m enjoying a nice little dessert from my childhood, the one thing that comes to mind is: “man, this could use some beer and bacon.” Am I alone here? I didn’t think so. Let’s take our childhood favorite add just that. Bacon, candied in…
I have a big fucking secret to tell you. The Hershey Kiss has ALWAYS looked like a little droplet of shit. Yes, this is my defense of the new Hershey’s logo. Take a look at it (above), please. If you just saw this logo, you might not even realize you’re seeing anything new. It’s executed…
Genius. Badass. Trivial Pursuit Champ. Inventor of Revolutionary Devices. Protector. Witty. Master of Ninjitsu. Why wouldn’t I have had a massive crush on Donatello as a child? I was big into the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Being a child of the late 80s/early 90s… I don’t really even think it was an option. I watched…
I’m a Marvel girl (though sadly, I’m not Marvel Girl), but I don’t have a lot of experience with Guardians of the Galaxy. I stuck around X-Men and the Avengers and never really ran out of material to read, watch and be entertained by. When the Guardians film was announced a couple of years ago,…
It’s that time of year again where all the nerds step from their dark doorways, blinking into the bright summer sun, donning their bestest cosplay gear and nicest camera equipment, thrusting themselves into the sweaty world of comics, film and television with other like-minded individuals and the actors/writers/illustrators that turned them into the fanboys and…
It’s summer. The last thing you want to serve your guests is milk and cookies, warm from the oven. Though you want something a little fancier than store-bought ice cream, amiright? I figured now was the perfect time to bust out this Key LImePA Cheesecake. Tart key limes and Ithaca Brewing Company’s Fleur de Belgique,…
There’s really no crazy backstory to this recipe. I just wanted to make a lovely little nibble for my more refined friends. I had made a delicious Earl Grey Soda awhile back (the Patrick Stewart-themed Make It Soda). It was mostly well-received, but I did hear from a friend that having Earl Grey flavor in…
I’ll admit, I’m not an avid Spider-man comic book reader. So when I watch the Spider-man movies, I don’t have the book biases that others have. I’m strictly speaking of the movies based on a movie-fan’s knowledge. That being said, I was a little skeptical when they decided to reboot the series so soon after…
