My family and I suspect most Americans don’t spend enough time eating. Oh my we get enough FOOD to eat, but seem to spend very little time enjoying the experience. We’ve been working at adding more variety to our diet in the form of organ meats, sea food and vegetables, to my dear husbands meat-and-potato-loving [...]
I like to make soup a couple of times in the week for lunch and to add to dinner. Today I was working on tortilla soup but was distracted by chasing a pooping Pit Bull puppy: she ate an entire tube of raw chorizo that my (adult) son left sitting on the couch and it [...]
I am going to move stuff around on the blog now that I have it stable again. I am going to re-add all my recipes and pictures from the past and now that I’ve found all my old blog posts I am going to start moving them on here one at a time. So sign [...]
I found a new keeper appetizer recipe today! It’s called Buffalo Chicken dip and wow, is it good! One of my favorite dishes in the world is Buffalo Chicken wings, home made with loads of bleu cheese dressing and celery sticks: don’t forget the chips, salsa and beer! This recipe is a take on that [...]
Ok, Homesick Texan, I am going to have to start paying you royalties or something. So, a while back the menfolk hereabouts made deep fried tacos whiel I took pics. I posted them on Twitpic but did not blog about it. Here it goes: I used Homesick Texan’s recipe, only with flour that was soaked [...]
I am feeling tired and out of sorts today; did not get enough sleep last night. I should exercise but I am not going to do it. I made baked oatmeal today, starting with soaking Scottish-cut oatmeal overnight in whey from yogurt. It turned out well. The recipe came from Kelly the Kitchen Kop. I [...]
Shhh…It’s in the oven I am totally gonna eat some tonight! So, I was standing around, yelling at the Olde Man about chocolate and dessert and eaten peaches and the abomination of belly-worship while eyeballing the leftover Challah and inspiration struck! I wanted mooore bread pudding, my current favorite obsession, but something more…spicy. I checked [...]
Lovin’ them eggs Benedict, actually. Oh, the joy of runny dark yellow yolks intertwined with the juicy pale ham slices and the golden buttery heaven of the hollandaise sauce…a stick of butter=Nirvana. Really. I could drip the Hollandaise all over my body and li…ummm, maybe that is a post for another blog. Muki’s Kitchen, perhaps. [...]
One of the enduring Sabbath traditions around our house (and one of the ongoing reasons for my*ahem* large behind) is some sort of ooey-gooey treat to last the weekend. I have tried every treat imaginable, from low-carb to store bought to fancy-made. We always tend to come back to simple pies and cakes. For this [...]
Sigh. Homesick Texan , I love you but my ass is growing from eating too much of your gorgeous recipes. Sigh again. The ONLY way I have ever successfully lost weight is with low-carbing. However, I LOATHE the process of low-carbing, as it helps me wack out in my OCD way on every damned thing [...]
