This entry is part of a series, Follies 2011» I’ve heard of having your panties in a bunch, but this takes things a bit too far. A Yonkers woman shopping in White Plains, NY retaliated against a Victoria’s Secret outlet, after she was banned from shopping there due to an earlier shoplifting incident, by [...]
Although I can’t claim to be 100% yet (and wifeyperson says that’s a good thing, in some respects), I’ve clearly recovered from the ‘flu bug. It’s not something I recommend everybody experience, but it sure feels good to be over it and back! So good, in fact, that I’m cooking again. Stacked enchiladas already this [...]
You’ll have to go far to find a month with more food fun packed into it than February has to offer! And this week is the pinnacle of all that merriment.

The International Chili Society will be holding their World Championship Chili Cookoff in Charleston, West Virginia tihs year! Yeah; you read that right. How could they move it [...] Kids and parents alike can get a Halloween hangover from all the sugar and poor nutrition. I think the worst day is November 2, actually. The night of Halloween you’re busy with the activities and the TOTers, you don’t eat well, you snarf down way too much sucrose and fructose and food colorings, but you’re [...] These days, everybody’s working to save the planet. I also work to have good taste. Or at least food that tastes good. (See earlier post on the F-BOM.) Well, you can’t say I’m not doing my part. Shoot, I even invented a chili verde that’s guaranteed to support the effort. I mean, it’s definitely green! That [...] |
