Well, I did it again… I got a standing ovation while standing in a line at a superstore. It could have gone either way…I either get punched or I get applause. Luckily, I got applause. I was not having a very good day. The previous day I had totalled my car and I hurt. On…

How to Make Chicken Flavored Glue
Every cook does it. They just won’t admit it. Every cooks cheats on occasion. Some use canned spaghetti sauce. “I can take this jar of Ragu and make it taste exactly like what my mother used to make! Of course you can, IF YOUR MOTHER USED RAGU!!! Some use Velveeta when they make their mac…
Food! Glorious Food!
When is the last time you had to carve soup with a knife? Sometimes, you make the best tasting concoctions purely by accident. Seriously, I have known culinary masterpieces to come out of nowhere. Dinner last Thursday is an example. My husband is a fantastic baker, a truly amazing baker, but he is not known…
BACON! BACON! BACON!
With the pandemic and social distancing still on, shopping has been anything but easy. For instance, I have NEVER ever seen the meat case at Costco completely empty before. I am not talking less variety than normal. I mean completely empty of all fresh meat… No ground beef. No fresh chicken. No pork roast. Nada….
Recipe for the Apocalypse
Those of you who know me know that when I cook, I cook a lot. Not just a lot. A LOT! Being a former caterer and a Master Cook in the SCA, it is sort of expected. The standing joke is that I have enough food in my fridge to feed an entire Boy Scout…
The Golden Hoard
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?…
WHERE was that snake again?
I am sure by now that most of you have seen the news reports on those people from Alabama, I think, and their smoking nasty grill. You haven’t? Come on… You have not seen the news reports of the couple who started up their grill only to find that a very large snake had coiled…
Is it Chili in Here?
Super Bowl time!

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”….
