A food box filled with awesome: HelloFresh Review

What's the worst part about cooking? You know, besides the actual cooking? For me, there's two things I hate: shopping and measuring everything out. After cooking, I canNOT stand cleaning up.

StarKist Charlie has taken tuna beyond a basic sandwich

By | 2016-08-30T21:28:07-04:00 May 6, 2015|Featured, Food|Comments Off on StarKist Charlie has taken tuna beyond a basic sandwich

Tuna happens to be one fish I do eat. Salmon and tuna in salad form works for me, along with lobster and crab. Plus, if you fry me up some calamari, I'm good. Anything else having to do with fish, it just doesn't work for me. The smell, the texture, the taste - fish usually [...]

By | 2016-08-30T20:36:28-04:00 February 4, 2015|Featured, Food, Reviews|Comments Off on Lobster Risotto made by November Sunflower thanks to PeachDish

Over and over, it has been well-established that November Sunflower is not meant to be in the kitchen. I burn myself on the toaster oven at least once a day, and the smoke detectors go off at least once per day. Personally, I think it's because they are just overly sensitive. I try not to [...]

Chicken from a truck? I must be on something....but I'm not! I love chicken. If saving money means buying chicken in a truck from a company that uses their own farm chickens, so be it!
