School’s moving right along now. We’re not quite to the “same ol’ grind” stage, but just thinking about the grind made me hungry. For a grinder. Also known as a sub sandwich or a hoagie.

A couple months back, the Chile Underground declared Asian Noodles Month; it was an instant hit. (Don’t groan! Okay, go ahead, you need it.) However, some visitors were a little concerned that some of the instant noodle varieties weren’t very healthy. While I think they’re better than certain fast food meals I could name [...]

After that, you’ll have to pay me wads of cash for more curry dishes get your own copy of the book; something I [...] Tired of the same ol’ sandwich spread? Try this stuff: Curried Avocado Aioli I tried this (again) recently on simple sandwiches for lunch. Man, did it zest things up nicely!
