Pande-fricking-monium! There I said it! That is what it has been like trying to shop this week after the panic caused by governmental incompetence. All I wanted was some fricking rice and it was sold out everywhere. Kroger? Nope. Needler’s? Nope. Aldi’s? Nope, again. Three strikes – you’re out! Guess where I finally found it?…

What The Tur-F*@kin? aka The Buffet In Hell: Pringles Edition
I know a lot of you saw the ads online. I know because half of you all seemed to have copied the links to Facebook and clogged my feed for a good 24 hours. “Pringles Announces New Turducken Flavored Pringles!” What the hell? They can’t be serious…but they were! Billed as a way of avoiding…
Tales From An Old Ford
Some memories never fade. They just crystallize and sparkle in our memories. I love music. And I grew up on a farm. Put those together and what do you get? Yup. My favorite memories of all time consist of me and my Dad driving around in that old Ford pickup of his at 80 miles…
Satan’s Favorite Drive Through
For those of you who have been wondering where I have been of late, let’s just say life has been interesting. So, my Dad was in the hospital. And, those of you who know my Dad know that he likes Arby’s. Well, maybe like is not the right word. Try “loves”. Better yet – “LOVES”….

I Will Have the Jeffrey Dahmer Special with a side of deep-fried Sweeney!
Being a cook means you get to spend a lot of time in other people’s kitchens. A lot of QUALITY time. However… Some people have odd taste in decorating. Take the signs people keep in their kitchens for instance. There are the ones you expect to see: “Wash Hands Before Preparing Food” And, the tacky…
What The Hell Is In This?
All cooks do it whether they admit it or not. You hate to throw out food. I know I do. Any time my husband opens the refrigerator and starts complaining about how full it is, I simply hold my breath, refuse to answer and hope he moves along as quickly as possible to the next…
Why Did The Chicken Cross the Road?
This story could also be subtitled: “Why is that chicken on fire?” You may or may not know it but my brother could never be described as the sharpest tack in the shed.
