"Food"
In which there’s a picture of food, because isn’t that what the internet’s for? Look! It’s the spinach frittata from The Lowry. It was delivered, of course, because we never go out, especially not for brunch. The love of my life is basically impossible to roist out of his home for trivial things like eating […]
In which I don’t understand. Why do store-bought dips suck? I bought a huge container of artichoke-jalapeno dip last weekend, and while it isn’t exactly inedible, it’s really not good. You can safely buy salsa — well, many of them, at least — and those sort of 70’s-style chip dips (like French onion or whatever), […]
In which I’m dieting. Tired (again) of being fat and miserable. Dieting (again) in an effort to be less fat and less miserable. As a vegetarian, I find it very difficult to do really low-carb, so I’m doing a combination of “as few carbs as possible” and calorie restriction. Eating a lot of eggs, tofu, […]
In which it’s Superb Owl Sunday, and I’m not even sure who’s playing! It’s 1:24 in the afternoon and I’ve already downed this: (It’s a brilliant bloody mary with lots of pickle juice.) And this: (A mostly-homemade bean tostada of excellent excellence.) Life is a wonderful — and delicious and tipsy — thing!
In which I’m astonished at the texture! I like to read recipes. I have liked to do so since they were in actual books rather than on the internet. I especially like to read old recipes. The oldest through the newest, to see what’s changed and what’s the same. Ancient recipes, medieval recipes, 20’s recipes, […]
In which there are a variety of reversible, seasonally appropriate motherfucking handmade placemats!!! When your mom is psychic: You buy a table and you think, damn, some placemats sure would be great. AND THEN YOUR MOM SENDS YOU A BOX OF THEM RIGHT OUT OF THE BLUE, AND THERE’S, LIKE, DIFFERENT ONES FOR MAJOR HOLIDAYS […]
In which I wax enthusiastic about a very old product! Even with shipping, I got a frying pan, a sauce pan, and two lids for $25. Which is a really decent price, considering you could easily pay almost that for a lidded 6″ non-stick that you’d have to throw out and replace in two years. […]
In which there’s a recipe. I’ve been eating these all week. They’re really just bean tostadas, but you should make some anyway because they’re fantastic. This is a strange but delicious guacamole. Make some. (Click on the pic for the recipe.) Now put it in the fridge to chill. Put some grated cheese — I […]
In which I went on a half-assed diet the Monday after Thanksgiving because I was fucking miserable in my own body. On Thanksgiving day I did not measure my waist, but I’d measured it awhile before so I knew it was 40 inches. 40 inches! My waist! That’s fucking insane! I’m 5’4″; not even my […]
In which I’m working full-time and NOTHING (in terms of domestic chores) IS BEING DONE! Floors are filthy. Sheets really need to be laundered. Tub could use a scrub. Not sure when I last brushed my hair. Have done zero Christmas shopping and don’t even have Christmas cards, let alone have any of them addressed […]
