Asparagus two ways – a side dish and a main dish

Darlene’s back Guest-clacking again, after sharing her recipe for chicken two ways…. First of all, I don’t intend to title every guest post with multiple variations on a single theme, but two important events happened this week in the Wilson household and both involved asparagus. When I think about it, I would probably be a […]

I hate Girl Scout cookies – Eat, Drink, and Be Snarky

It’s that time of year again! Yes, it’s girl scout cookie season! It seems like everywhere I turn there are tiny boxes of crappy cookies. That’s right, I said crappy. Come close and I’ll let you in on a little secret: girl scout cookies aren’t very good. I’ve known this for quite some time, but […]

Man v. Food – everyone loves a challenge

Today’s Guest-clacker is Nicole Yates, who’s clacked for us on CliqueClack TV, most recently about Better Off Ted….

Having never had a hamburger or a sausage patty or whatever, whether or not what I’m eating […]

I like to think of myself as an organized, prepared person, but somehow the planning for tonight’s menu went south. I had chick peas and several veggies. […]

Polenta with sausage tomato sauce – Feed me!

After a few days of client meetings, complete with hurried lunches over piles of documents and one too many conference room cookies, I wanted nothing more than to eat a home-cooked meal at my leisure over a glass of wine. Sometimes, enough is enough! As I walked toward the subway, the damp early spring chill […]

Bacon Bear Pepperoni Pizza – PizzaClack

I read the post Debbie wrote about the bacon asparagus pizza the other day and I thought, pizza sounds really good. So I read the post again. Yeah, definitely need to have pizza. Luckily I had a pizza crust mix tucked away in the back of the pantry. I dug out the crust mix and […]
