"You must only radically be who you are..."

Well, then let's get to it.

quote from Black Hockey Jesus of Wind in Your Vagina

It's good. We're good.

The [school] quarter is coming to a close next week and I feel pretty good about it. (Ask me how I feel next week, however.)

I'm starting back up into relationshipsville, and that's going well.

I know what I'm doing for the next two weeks, which is astounding. After that two weeks: Spring Break! Which means doing nothing except ( Read more... )

It's time for the separation of church and state (or, in this case, personal and food blogging).

I'm no longer posting recipes on this blog. Wanna see what I'm cooking? Go here: http://onemorefoodblog.blogspot.com/ That's right, there's now yet another food blog for folks to read. Because there weren't enough to begin with. And yes, I did indeed ( Read more... )

I got my car back, so now I can make soup.

I pulled this recipe off of allrecipes.com because I was feeling like eating the soup from, forgive me, Olive Garden. I haven't been there in years. I haven't had the soup in forever. Can we call it a PMS moment?

Anyhow, after reviewing a few recipes, I settled on this one. The recipe below is an adaptation ( Read more... )

Okay, this one doesn't count. Why? Because it's just throwing stuff together and eating it. But here it is anyway ( Read more... )

Okay, so I'm cheating already. I've decided that "one new recipe a week" means "one new recipe I haven't made in my own kitchen or by my own hands." So I've decided family recipes, that I haven’t made, totally count as “new” recipes. I’ll try not to cheat like this too often, because I pretty much know how these family recipes will turn out. And ( Read more... )

This week I decided to get right to the making of the new recipe. The original recipe (online here) was for Slow Cooker Lentils and Sausage.

I tweaked the original recipe based on the comments/reviews and what made sense to me. Draining the can of tomatoes does not make sense to me. I happen to think that tomato juice in a stew is just great ( Read more... )

So, there has been no New Year's resolution. Instead, I have chosen a New Year's aim. I am going to aim to do one new recipe a week. I'll hit most weeks (I do have to eat anyway), and I'll miss some.

That is all.

From Anthony Bourdain's Kitchen Confidential

Unless you're one of us already, you'll probably never cook like a professional. And that's okay. On my day off, I rarely want to eat restaurant food unless I'm looking for new ideas or recipes to steal. What I want to eat is home cooking, somebody's -- anybody's -- mother's or grandmother's food. A ( Read more... )
