There are few things greater in life than the combination of sweet and salty. Especially when the sweet component comes from chocolate. But I’m not about to be satisfied with that. I WANT to make it better. Oh wait, I did. I added beer. These easy-to-make/easier-to-eat Porter & Pretzel Chocolate truffles are going with you…
I type this as I look out the window on snow covered trees and big beautiful flakes falling to the ground. Faintly, outside, I hear my neighbor spinning his tires trying to get out of the driveway. It’s beautiful. No, seriously. I fucking love winter. Here it is, February and people are complaining that the…
As many of you know, and some of you may not, I’ve been writing a weekly column for a fabulous pop culture site, HoboTrashcan.com. I’ve only been working with them since May of this year, but together, we’ve made some beautiful pop culture themed wonders. But I’m like a baby to this site, because Joel…
I love croissants. But I’m one of those annoying croissant snobs. I won’t eat just any and I seldom order them at restaurants because I have little faith that they’ll be done properly. Which is why I was pretty damn hesitant to try the frozen ones from Trader Joes. My husband’s family would make frozen…
I know this post is a little morbid and kind of fucked up. But it’s Dexter. How can it not be? With the last season barreling in on us, I wanted to do a recipe to honor our lovable little psychopath. What better way, than to create one of his specialties: donuts. But donuts are…
I had all of these high hopes and ambitions for cooking this weekend. I should have known better. It’s Beer Week here in Philadelphia. As a craft beer nerd, I had a lot on my plate. Or in my cup, rather. Though, that does mean I need some substantial food in my belly to survive…
To most of you, it is Memorial Day Weekend. That’s cool, I’m on board. I get an extra day off. And this recipe is good for that. It’s stupidly-easy, amazingly delicious and a great accompaniment to burgers and brats. You can throw it together, drink beer, hang with your friends, come back to it later…
Back in 2010, Count Chocula, Frankenberry and BooBerry cereals began being available around Halloween time. So I like to take FULL advantage of this treat. I love theming crap out and being a big kid, so this is perfect for me. Hopefully it’s perfect for you too. [I realize it is HALLOWEEN already, and my…
I’m mostly a savory-for-breakfast kind of girl. But I get sick of the same old crap all time. On weekends I like to spice it up a little. This is a perfect breakfast, buttloads of nutrition AND flavor. Not to mention, it’s the perfect amount of filling. Smoky Quinoa Breakfast Bowl 1/4 cup quinoa, cooked…
That’s it. I’m officially screwed. I’ll never lose weight again. You guys should actually NOT make this recipe. It’s a time bomb. You’ll just want to make it over and over and over again until you die. (I’m really good at promoting myself.) Pulled Pork and Muenster Grilled Cheese Sandwich 2 slices Texas toast 1/3 cup…
