We met a group of friends for dinner last night. We were hoping for Vietnamese food, but two of the friends were visiting from California and wanted to do something “New York” style that they couldn’t get in California. Really, that doesn’t leave much. You can get anything in California. Not saying it’s going [...]

If you ever thought to yourself “Gee, how good could a tamale bought in the frozen food section at Target be?”, wonder no more.

Now, I’ve only had tamales twice before, both times at authentic Mexican restaurants, one of them where the owner/chef who learned how to make tamales from her [...]

I took this picture the other day, maybe for posterity. I didn’t do anything with it.
I just read this article about what a family of four in 1950 ate for a full year. You have to see the picture with it.
I would love to see this next to the same thing for a 2007 family. [...]

A cool site: what breakfast is to different people.
Yay, I get to write about breakfast!
Breakfast is my favorite meal. So much so that sometimes I eat breakfast for lunch. Or dinner. That’s what diners are made for. You can eat breakfast any time you want. Hell, sometimes I will get tired of cooking the same [...]

I don’t know why this popped in my head this morning, but I had a flashback to these boil-in-a-bag dinners my mother used to make. Slices of meat product and gravy in a plastic pouch, that you dropped in a pot of boiling water to warm up. Talk about gourmet cooking skills. Boil bag, cut [...]
