Hooray for Gingerbread Waffles!

So the best part about this time of year is the fact that there are now 23828347924 things you can buy that are either pumpkin flavored or gingerbread flavored. As I am a cheap ho, I try to not actually buy too many of these things, as I can make just as many things with [...]

The Weirdest Chai Ever from Egg Shell, Plus Mediocre Crepes!

So, for starters, I’m gonna apologize for the fact that I haven’t actually written about anything I’ve *cooked* in many moons. I’ve got a backlog of photos on my phone, but the glut of what I’ve got to work with on my actual computer is from restaurants, and I am apparently too much of a [...]

The Breakfast of Champions

Yeah, so I had some bad insomnia the other night. Woke up at 4 am, couldn’t go back to sleep. Decided at 6 am to go see who actually goes to the gym at that godawful hour. After 30 minutes on a treadmill and a refreshing shower, I found myself with another hour to kill [...]

Delightful Gingerbread Pancakes from Racines

So I’ve discovered pretty much the Best Breakfast Place Ever – Racines, which is a convenient 4 blocks from where I now live. I am a sucker for pancakes and waffles with exciting innards and topped with dessert-like ingredients, and Racine’s does not disappoint. Most notably, with the gingerbread pancakes: The pancakes were super tasty, [...]

One Breakfast Sandwich To Rule Them All

I haven’t posted in an embarrassingly long time. I blame the attack of the entirely too short vacation. Time to celebrate vacation’s end, and 4/20 apparently, with a breakfast sandwich! To clear matters up, I am not traditionally a consumer of breakfast sandwiches. This is because I am extraordinarily picky about eggs. Eating egg in [...]

Sushi, Now With More Bacon!

I’ve had this pack of bacon just sitting in my fridge waiting for a good idea. And bacon sushi is pretty much the best idea one can ever come up with. I’ve made it once before, where I cooked the bacon first, then added it to sushi. This time around, I made the sushi and [...]

Waffles are the Breakfast of the Gods

I heart waffles. I can never make *just* waffles either. I always gotta be dumping stuff in them. Waffles are probably best made from scratch, but more likely then not I’ll make mine with Bisquick. I have waffley needs that must be met in a very immediate fashion, and Bisquick is often the easiest solution. [...]

I will not eat green eggs and ham

I decided to make Drew some green eggs and ham. I’ve not dyed any food funny colors in quite awhile, and this provided the perfect excuse to do so. To be accurate, this is green eggs and cheese and ham. And, unlike in the infamous novel of the same name as this dish, the eggs [...]

Delicious Bacon Sushi! (Part 2)

So a little while ago, I applied for a part-time position as a sushi apprentice. Or, more specifically, a sushi apprentice at a sushi bar in a giant nightclub in a giant stone church. Talk about the best job ever. Well, best job ever for someone else, as I did not get the position. Hooray [...]

Delicious Bacon Sushi! (Part 1)

I came up with the idea of making bacon sushi a little while back, and once the idea was there, I could not get it out of my mind. It seemed like such a fabulous idea. How convenient that bacon was on sale at Safeway recently (2 for 1 packs of Jimmy Dean!). We got [...]
