sweet potato stir fry with honey & ginger sauce

September 30, 2012

2

As Autumn moves in, some flavors best kept to cooler nights, and mainstays during holiday meals come into play. For now, it’s sweet potato. Sometimes the fridge is bare. Sometimes it’s packed to the gills. Sometimes you have more beers than anything else (or maybe that’s just us…), sometimes more cheese. It’s a magnificent thing, […]

Dejavu, all over again, right? You just saw these rolls. Why do you care to see them again? Because I’ve got a few minutes and I decided to break these things down into various posts so that I can ‘splain myself, and pass the time until my food needs to come out of the oven. […]

sandwich bread and a grilled cheese

September 12, 2012

When I told the contractor I was working with that I got up a little bit early to make some bread, he seemed slightly alarmed: “You got up at what time to make bread?” I began to explain that I got up literally… 5-7 minutes earlier, and was able to start this bread. Sounds kooky […]

  What do you do when you’re tired, slightly hungover, and can’t seem to make it all the way through your ice coffee without taking a break? Make something to eat. Something that isn’t too hands on. Something you can watch, or not watch and turn down and leave the cooking to join a conversation, […]

auntie’s flat bread (pizza)

One thing that I am frequently surprised about: how much I enjoy eating a fresh tomato. This seems like no crazy ordeal, for sure. But had you met me over a decade ago and suggested I chop up a nice fresh tomato and toss a piece in my mouth, I would tell you that you must be […]

pulled pork sandwiches

August 2, 2012

After a few hopeless searches, and useless results, and agonizing over recipes (not really, but it felt a little more dramatic than it really was..) I found a pulled pork recipe that I wanted to use. This lady Bridget was able to break it down for me. Took the fear out of pulling pork. Seriously, […]

Father’s Day Weekend pt 1- 1/2

June 17, 2012

2

In order to try to make tomorrow less hectic, and include more sleeping and laundry. I have tried to prep things in a way that I’ve never attempted before. I have a few things to do tomorrow, but I’m hoping the majority of them can be done while cleaning the house and doing laundry. This […]

bacon cheeseburgers, cooked indoors

When I headed home from work today (early, with a headache behind my eyes so bad it turned my stomach – or my stomach, turned itself and this thing is bigger than it seems… I’m a licensed electrician, not a licensed physician…) it felt nice and hot out. We’ve had weather dipping down into the 50’s, […]

“Only thing we have to fear is fear itself.”

Well, boys. I would disagree with you there. I can think of at least a handful of things that I fear… Heights. Why? I don’t know. I was an avid climber of things when I was a baby, toddler, child, then at some point I just was not cool with them anymore. I don’t recollect […]

Oven baked quick ribs, cornbread, beans and green beans

August 1, 2011

1

A discussion about ribs during last Sunday’s meal is what got me thinking about making them for supper this week. I’d never made them before, and probably have only eaten them twice or three times in my life. Seemed like a decent undertaking for a Sunday. I’d received a recipe for cornbread earlier in the […]
