You know what? Done right there ain’t a much finer way to start the day than a scratch made biscuit. Considering how simple the recipe usually is, it’s easy enough to screw up. My wife made these beautiful things and if she would be so kind to leave a recipe in the comments then you [...]

Before: After: Yep, Leigh took our chickens to the farm today. It was a one way trip for them. Today she made this lovely soup. Yes taking the first bite was a little weird, but you know what? It was miiighty tasty. I think most people in this country would benefit from raising their own [...]

Every once in a while I’ll stumble across a new food item and feel the need to blog about it. Today is one such day. A few weeks ago I saw products from Simply Asia in my local Harris Teeter. Three bucks for a shelf stable mass of noodles seemed like a bit much even [...]

Somewhere while tripping through the food-blogosphere I ran into Pure Chocolate: Divine Desserts and Sweets from the Creator of Fran’s Chocolates. After I apologized to the book for the nasty bump I immediately added it to my wish list, intending to purchase it. As with most things, that never happened, but I was pleasantly surprised [...]

Well it’s the start of another year. This one was good and some time this week I’ll do a little blog year in review hitting the “highlights” of what I’ve written and share with you what, if anything, I’ve learned. In the meantime things are settling out. We’ve made room for the new and gotten [...]

So yesterday after work I went in search of food. I was originally trying to find some sort of Asian place, preferably Thai, but it was not meant to be. Instead I found East Side Mario’s, a Canadian pizza chain. It was pretty awesome from a pizza standpoint. I had an Italian sausage with cherry [...]

So this Thanksgiving was pretty awesome. There was of course the food: And so much more.
