They say that life is a shit sandwich, and every day is another bite. But you know what, if this was the bread for it, that would be a-ok. Hey Erin. You asked, therefore you shall receive. I've been feeling a little bit like a hobby-holly-homemaker since we moved. Why? Because I bake bread. Not occasionally. I bake bread every weekend and sometimes in the middle of the week if we run out. (also, on a side note I'm trying to figure out what to ...

Girls? You think I'm sexy? You want to do me? Everyone loves a chubby dude! T-Minus eight days until I turn 30. I'll let that sink in a little. But mostly for me. Thirty. Just like a bad ABC sitcom. Alas on the upside: 1. Julie is still older than me. 2. Her mom and dad got me the pasta attachment for my kitchenaide Now ...

Sure, Soylent Green may be made from humans, but as far as I know you can't get mad cow from little Timmy. So we just recently ended a nearly two week sprint of Julie having house guests visit us. And not that I don't like people, but I'm happy to be home by myself again. Although the last set were her parents which don't count really as house guests; they're soon-to-be in-laws! But being that Julie's mom reads this blog on occasion (Hi Kris!) I ...

One day when bears rule over the human race, the bearded man will be king amongst the hairless. Who wrote the book of love? Because I'm pretty sure this is the opening chapter. So, as you may have noticed on the occasion that I post a weekly menu up here, that Julie and I go to my dad's house for dinner every once in a while. One of the holy-grail-you're-still-the-master-cook dishes my dad makes is arroz con pollo. Now, I know. Arroz con pollo isn't ...

Imagine if it was Reese's Pisces and they were filled with ground up fish instead of peanut butter? I've been really working on trying to eat more fish as of late. Not only is it extremely tasty, but apparently it's kind of good for you or something. The problem is that, for the most part, you gotta eat it the day you buy it. Which means Sundays have become fish days. This is because i go food shopping on Sundays. I go to Fairway for ...

Corn futures rose sharply this morning in heavy trading after this mornings crop estimates from the US Department of Agriculture Two posts in one night? I'm on a fucking roll. Either that or I'm drunk, bored or the combination of the two. I'm gonna go with drunk at the very least. That would explain why we're out of beer at the least. I never believed in the beer-stealing gremlins anyway. My parents lied to me a lot. ...

The shape of dumplings to come. Pop quiz. Which one of these of these is the best thing in the world: A) Dragons B) Santa Claus C) Economically sound corn-based ethanol D) Dumplings Give up? Ha. Trick question. Lemmy IS god. No wait. D) Dumplings. Why? Because the others are fucking figments of your fucking imagination. So I was watching Good Eats the other day (what ...

You think you know what a money shot is? Unless you've seen this, you're totally wrong. I really wanted to make chicken pot pie this week. I really really did. I even put it on the menu, bought frozen peas and pearl onions. I took chicken out of the freezer to defrost. Like I really wanted to. But then I had the week from hell at work and have been retarded exhausted every night when I got home. So I haven't cooked this week ...
