The final half of the final season of Game of Thrones is upon us and we’re all wondering the same thing: Who wins the game? Each week, I’m going to do a theme recipe for each of my guesses for who will sit on the iron throne in the end. Since I’ve planned these out…
We all change. Our palettes develop. We become more refined. But I had this hunch that my palette does not think it’s too good for Spam. I think it’s one of those things where it gets a bad rep because it’s processed, packaged in a can and has one of those gross-long shelf lives. But…
I haven’t really done a Halloween recipe for you guys this year. This is likely the closest you’ll get. The vibrant orange of the mushrooms and the glossy black of the balsamic reduction make it festive enough for my liking. Next year I hope to be less busy and more in-your-face. I actually received these mushrooms,…
There are a few things that people consider “summer foods” or perfect for picnics and barbecues that my family has completely mastered. They make these foods so well, mind you, that we now also make them for Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, President’s Day… whenever we get the excuse. The first recipe is my mom’s baked beans….
The best way to spread Christmas cheer is baking lots and drinking beer. Or at least that’s how I do it, because believe-you-me, you do not want to hear me sing Christmas carols.

This column originally ran on HoboTrashcan.com. About half a year ago, I didn’t even know “Who” wasn’t The Doctor’s last name. Once I started watching the show, it took me under two months to make my way through all of the modern episodes. (Time to start the old ones!) I knew once I got going…
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……
Summer is closing soon, and I couldn’t be happier. I’m a fall and winter girl and I always dread the heat. But, I can’t deny how awesome it is to have fresher produce and bright flavors. With that in mind, I couldn’t let summer close out without doing something fresh, bright and yummy. It’ll still…
What up, guys? So excited to be back for normal postings! Wanted to give you a little something awesome and I know you are all in the mood for a grilled cheese. A rich, decadent, out-of-this-freaking-world grilled cheese. I shall confess, I’m not a HUGE lobster person. This may just be lack of exposure, I’m…
