Nineteen things to do with plain yogurt

You’ll never open the refrigerator in our house and find it void of organic, plain, whole milk yogurt. This is a staple in our house, for more than just your typical yogurt uses. Yeah, I still purport that eating it from the 32-ounce container with a big spoon when no one is looking is probably […]

Zucchini chocolate chip cookies: decadent and low-calorie

When I recently promised you my killer recipe for Zucchini chocolate chip cookies, I was operating under the assumption I’d be blessing you with one of the most scrumptious little treats you could ever want to satisfy a dessert craving. Well, we made them last night and Keith entered the ingredients into “Lose It!,” his […]

I am Bob, destroyer of food processors – Eat, Drink, and Be Snarky

That’s right, everyone, I have killed my food processor. I was recently making some super delicious scones and decided to use my food processor to mix the dough. I don’t have a standing mixer and I think that the food processor cuts the butter into the dough better than a mixer can, anyway. The problem […]

What exactly is fast food? – Fast Food Generation

I mean, it’s celery. I have to admit that celery isn’t one of those ingredients I […]

Boozy chocolate: Now that’s a St. Patrick’s Day dessert

Despite having studied abroad in Ireland for a semester in college, I have some sort of mental block when it comes to Irish food: I utterly lack the ability to think beyond corned beef and cabbage. Even if I were, I’m not creative enough to think of interesting ways to prepare the dish (which, to […]

Start your St. Patrick’s Day off with some marshmallowy, sugary goodness

Look, I love St. Patrick’s Day as much as the next guy painted head-to-toe in green (and I mean head-to-toe).  It’s such a festive day as folks burst into flames after drinking too much Guinness and eating too much corned beef and cabbage. Sure, the hole in the ozone layer gets just that much bigger on the […]
