Day 63: A Culinary Loose Cannon

Remember when I said you’d know when I reached the bottom of the barrel because I’d be posting recipes?

Jokes on you.  We reached the bottom of the barrel when I realized I was doing the “Mad Scientist’s Super Powered Grab Bag” once a week (at least).  At this point, I broke the bottom of the barrel already, am currently a mile under the surface of

I was an egg master once. But that.....was a long time ago.

so you're once a day resolution is paying off here - and seriously. you write about food quite well. and as the boyfriend of a woman for whom there are only two channels on television (food network and comedy central - and the latter only b/c i force her to change food network to comedy central every night at 11 to watch the Daily Show) and whose cook book collection rivals my stash of trades, I've seen every genre of food-as-entertainment approach on the market right now.... until today

I appreciate the kind words (a lot) but I don't know how a Fan Boy Cook Book would be made. I don't make anything geek themed. In fact the only good thing I had that was named after a comic book character was Nate's Green Lantern cocktail (which I forget how to make. Do you have the recipe?)

Thanks for the side bar offer, though funny story, I've been on a "Latin" kick as of late, and have been making many a pibil (thank you, Robert Rodriguez ten minute cooking school)burrito, and trying to come up with a decent tequila cocktail.

The verdict thus far? Drink it with lime (a la Cole Burns) and then chase it with something if you're fancy. Much like the temperamental Latin people, it doesn't play well with others.

I will admit. Doing a cooking entry a week would make this whole thing less stressful in terms of coming up with content.

well start there (one a week) and see where it takes you - i've got a sense it'll come easier than you think.

and yeah, "geek themed" makes me do a bitter-beer face when i think about it, but you know, it's all about how to get it on a shelf...

tequila cocktail, no muss, no fuss = Tequila & Tonic + wedge of lime.

I'll try it. I have no problem experimenting wit booze, but do you have the Green Lantern recipe?
