Only a few more days to get fat on Thin Mints

Readers, I have some bad news for you. Or maybe it’s good, depending on how tight your belt has gotten over the last two months. In a few more days the last orders will be placed, the tables will be folded and the 2009 Girl Scout Cookie season will officially come to an end. Oh, […]

Crazy Maki – Maki Clack

This week, I’m clacking about a couple of crazy makis that you might not try making on your own but are sure fun to read about. I take that back… if you enjoy experimenting in the kitchen, you very well might be dreaming up how you’d create something similar to these interesting makis. I’ll share […]

Milk: it doesn’t do my body good – Eat, Drink, and Be Snarky

There was the McDLT, which kept the hot side hot and the cool side cool in a non-environmentally safe Styrofoam package; the Angus Burger, which featured a third pound of artery-clogging Angus beef on a bun, and the McKrabby Patty, which was only available […]

Grapefruit + tangerine = tangelo – Pop Your Cherry

Apparently it’s “try new citrus fruit” week here at CliqueClack. Just a few days ago, Deb talked about her experiences with kumquats. Around the same time, I found myself in the supermarket, as I usually do at least three or four times per week. I had just finished off a really good crate of clementines […]
