My friend Bill sent me a link to BaconToday.com, which I now know as the Internet’s finest source of bacon information. (Seriously, that is a professional-looking site, particularly for one devoted solely to bacon. Nice job by 500 Yards Media, whoever they are.) The specific link he sent was this page on bacon cinnamon rolls, […]
Yo all. It’s been a mostly post-free summer for this website, but life is good right now, so I’ve been living it instead of blogging it. It’s just a few short weeks now until I quit my job, go on a quick vacation and then move up to Ann Arbor for b-school. While going to […]
If you had to give up beer or pizza for good, which is the right answer? I have to choose to give up beer. There’s always The Tyrconnell. There’s just no substitute for pizza. End post.
I’m sitting here reading about PHP exception handling when the idea strikes me: some peanut-butter toast would hit the spot like some sort of proverbial spot-hitting device. That got me thinking about why peanut butter is an amazing product. Peanut butter tastes great. You can rock peanut butter with lots of things: chocolate, jelly, Nutella, […]
Erin Go Bragh, dudes. It being St. Patrick’s Day — at least in one hour — I’d like all of you still living in NYC to take a moment at your local grocery establishment and appreciate the 1/4 of an aisle devoted to feeding the Irish immigrant masses, those still moving to New York after […]
Yesterday while housesitting for a friend, the wife and I finished off a hearty dinner. (For those both wondering and not wondering, I dropped culinary skillz to the tune of mussels in white-wine and garlic broth accompanied by a toasted baguette, fresh green beans in lemon-parsley butter and rosemary roasted potatoes. Fools better recognize.) While […]
If awesome was a flavor, it would be this. It doesn’t have the ham hocks or fatback that you find in the greens at Southern restaurants, but it tastes just as great and is healthier. 1 lb. collard greens, cut up and washed 14 oz. (1 can) chicken stock 1 1/2 cups water 1 1/2 […]
I’m off to Indiana for Thanksgiving, and like a good stereotype, I look forward again this year to eating potatoes. I will not be consuming a six-pack of beer to make it the Irish seven-course meal, and for the record, the one about the two dudes, the genie and the sea of Guinness is a […]
Big ups to my friends at PandaSmash.com for doing a cool job cutting on the web’s video sites. Right here. I personally would like to see more of Emo Sam, potentially a spinoff series. Hey, it worked for Rhoda. Big ups to A-Z Guitar Tabs for having such a complete archive. You think of a […]
Even though I don’t eat much meat anymore thanks to my quasi-veg diet, nothing stirs the passions of my stomach quite like those brown, finely breaded morsels of undetermined poultry origin. You hook us young, oh nugget. From those early years when mom and dad would head out to a night on the town, leaving […]
