Hottest. Soup. Ever.

As you regular visitors have figured out, I’m a fan of spicy stuff. I even eat candy that has chiles in it. So a recent post on MSNBC caught my eye. It promised me a peek at the hottest soup in the universe. I had a flash fantasy of puréed Habañeros or Jolokias in a [...] Read more »

The World's Finest Soupfest at the White House

The Occasionally Annual White House Soupfest, Domino Marathon and Bragging Contest made its biggest showing in decades on Saturday. We had folks from far and wide stop by, set a spell and eat.

Cajun and Creole Basics

New Orleans food is as delicious as the less criminal forms of sin. – Mark Twain.
Yeah, Ol’ Sam Clemens sure knew the Big Muddy. And all the good eating stops along it, I bet. I notice that he never said anything about food at any other port of call along the Mississippi. Coincidence? I think [...] Read more »

Fish 4 Friday: Crab & Asparagus Soup, or Sup Mang Tay Cua

My mother-in-law (MIL) has done it again. She’s gone and found a new dish that she really, really likes. She wants me to share it with the world. But she couldn’t quite describe it!
MIL went with Paula Jo to eat lunch one Saturday afternoon, and they tried out a fairly new restaurant in our area: [...] Read more »

How to Make Instant Noodles Taste Like a Feast

First, a quick reminder of what we’re up to here. We want tasty noodles, and we want them quick; we don’t want to make a lot of mess; we don’t want to break the bank. “Taste like a feast” is relative too. You can always splurge, but what if you’re on a tight budget? Like [...] Read more »

Running Rings in County Kerry

We got an early start today, as our plan would take us on the longest drive of the tour. We were heading down to County Kerry, to “run the ring” with all the tour buses and tourists. (We’re not tourists, you see; I got that hat and some shirts, so nobody can tell we’re not [...] Read more »
