More than a year ago I introduced you to the spicy saltines craze. Since then I’ve mentioned a variation or two. They’re ridiculously easy to make, and even easier to make disappear. They go great with most any snack.
Their only drawback: They ain’t no stinkin’ diet [...]

Yes, it’s Lent. Goodbye Fat Tuesday…
Wifey says that some of us, including some of y’all out there in Readerland, need to get serious about fish for Friday for the next six weeks. (She also says you know who you are.) Then she gave me The [...]

A post today on the CNN International website reminds me of some of the meals I ate while visiting Singapore. The post lists five weird dishes that Singaporeans enjoy:
Kacang Phool
Fuzhou UFOs
Eel Skin Crisps
