Seeing as it’s Apple Season here in WNY…
*wiggly lines of The Time Machine*
… created an apple pie from scratch without a recipe.  I just though about what would taste good in my head. 
Mind you, previous attempts at cooking had turned out rather, um, disastrous.  If you ever run into my dad, mention “Care Bear Cake” [...]

I read once, somewhere, a while ago, that different regions of the world have different comfort foods.
Also, I’ve noticed that men and women have different comfort foods.
My challenge to you, dear reader, is to tell me/us where you are (general geographies are okay) and what your comfort foods are.  If the food is situation dependent, [...]

Last night, being the only night that fits into The Misters unrestricted schedule, we went to the County Fair.
Basically, we just go to laugh at the trash, pick up some homemade goodies for Bailey and overpay for beer; we did all three.

If you’re saying, “That looks l like a monkey riding a dog…” then you [...]

Thanks to the good folks over at Self magazine, I have this deeeeeeelicious recipe for popsicles to share.  Pretty sure that they’re healthy, but what do I know?
(and if you’re grossed out by having seeds in your pop, well, it’s tasty…)
“They” say you need:
2.5 cups of Strawberries, halved and de-stemmed
3/4 cup pineapple juice
1/3 cup RAW, [...]

The final mark in my week-long triumphant adventure came this morning.
I sat for the Notary Public exam.
Within a week or so, I should know whether I’m a success or a failure then I get to apply for my license.
Good times.
Best part (of the traffic, the test, the parking, the people…) was getting a GOOD gyro.  [...]

Seriously.
Who else is feeling REALLY out of whack this daylight savings time?
It feels like I should have sprung ahead two hours (meaning that it’s 9:50 now and if feels like it should  be 10:50, but this time last week it was 8:50)
My internal clock is off-kilter and that’s why I had to eat Wegman’s Peanut [...]

Tangled somewhere in the internets, I found an article about bacon cups at notmartha.com.
I went back a few days later and found a gaggle of articles about creative uses for bacon.  Including this recipe for  Beer Cheese Muffins with Bacon Cream Cheese Frosting.
Being snowed in (well, preferring not to venture out…) and having some guinea [...]

(wordpress was being a cranky pants yesterday so I wasn’t able to post this…)
Bacon was calling me.
Loudly.
Like a tantrum.
So I cave in and go to Tim Hortons for lunch.
While in line, I’m contemplating what to order, besides a turkey club wrap.
It’s my turn to order.
The words come out of my mouth before I realize what [...]

me: Can you slice these [apples and pears] on the mandolin for me?
him: Okay.  (he looks at me blankly)
me: apples.  pears.  mandolin.  slice?
him: So, wait, what do I do now?
me: Take a piece of fruit.
him: Okay.  (holds an apple)
me: Now, cut off a bit of the bottom so you have an even surface.  (he looks [...]

This is a post about food.
I picked up some Wegmans “Organic Super Yogurt”. I don’t exactly know why it’s super, it didn’t come with a cape and I don’t feel like I’m super after eating it.
It’s not that it’s bad… it’s got quite a different taste from StonyField Organic Vanilla…
But as I’m putting it [...]
