From Cooking Show Memories to Bizarre Culinary Quests: A Journey

Hungry memories When I was just a lower case Ohh there was only one cooking show I knew of. It was called The Galloping Gourmet. The chef was named Graham Kerr. My mother watched this show religiously, wrote down the recipes on cards, then put them in a box so they could easily be found …

OK, Sure! But Is She Really THAT Good??

Preshow Life is full of uncertainties. So, it’s good to have some things you can count on; Like, flowers blooming in the spring, birds returning after the winter migration, and the fact you’ll glue your fingers together every time you touch a tube of Super-Glue. I do sometimes wonder about that last one. You’d think …

And This Is What They Teach In College??

They're Baaaaaaack Two weeks ago, my son came home from college. At least, I think he did. Not because I’ve actually seen him, but more for the scientific evidence he leaves behind. For instance, I went out for donuts on Sunday. I always get two jelly-filled, for a mid-morning snack. This week the jellies mysteriously …

Maybe I Am A Robot! So There!!

Start with a question Here’s a question for all those ultra-intelligent techies in Silicon Valley: If AI is so smart, why can’t they teach it to lie and click those little boxes that say, “I am not a robot”? Don’t even try to tell me it’s because they’re too noble, and can’t make AI lie. …

‘Ode To The Single Guy’ Just Call Me Bard… Simpson!!

Bard Windows Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day? No, I guess I won’t. Because around here, summer days really suck. I mean they’re hot, muggy, and full of bugs. Then again what did old Shakespeare know about women. How else do you explain the fact, he lived in London and his wife lived …

It’s Not The Goal, It’s The Journey… And The Journey SUCKS!!

Golden nuggets of wisdom Lately, I’ve been thinking about food and how glorious chicken nuggets are. If you don’t understand the wonder of these glorious golden beauties, let me explain. Supposedly they’re made of ‘all-white-meat’ chicken. Maybe, maybe not. Let’s just accept this as truth, and move on. They’re probably some form of meat, so …

I Usually Like Food, And That’s What’s Eating Me!!

Sorry You may have noticed I did not post last week. Ohh, I hope you noticed. I’m really sensitive about things like that, and you wouldn’t want to see me cry. It’s not a pretty sight. Then again, maybe you would. I mean people love horror movies. Don’t they? If you want to hear me …

It’s Time Somebody Stood Up For Everything Else!!!

What is happening? I was at my local donut place and saw something disturbing. They’re selling avocado toast, and almond milk lattes at the donut shop. They even had a bran donut with sugar-free glaze. I was shocked! This is the donut shop. The last bastion of unhealthy caloric goodness in the world, and they …

Cookin’ Up Some Holiday Nausea.

Holiday Cooking... I like to cook as much as anybody. Okay, that’s a lie. I guess I shouldn’t start lying so quickly. I mean it could set the wrong tone of the post. Also, at this time of year, Santa is watching. If I keep telling lies, I won’t get the newest kitchen gadget under …
