I wrote a weekly “Recipes Lost & Found” column for years for a newspaper. Even with the Internet in existence and with restaurant copycat recipe websites by the hundreds, they still emailed and asked on sweet, lilac-colored notepaper by mail for recipes they missed or wanted to try at home. I came to see that the shari… Read more
IKR? Allison is making this sound like it is a bad thing. Read more
Hmmmmmmmmm. HMMMMMMMMMMM. (I’m up in Conifer, so probably not safe for me to discover a dive bar in Denver anyway. I can’t imagine what an Uber would charge me. A hotel would likely be cheaper.

So, I whip up a batch of chinkiang vinegar/soy/ginger sauce, put it in a small lidded bowl, and surreptitiously dump it into the provided bowl of… Read more
I hate that there are no Popeyes near my house. I’ve watched their advertising for years and haven’t been able to satisfy my craving. I finally tried it at an Ohio rest stop last year. I’m not sure if that location was the best example of a Popeyes, but I thought the breading on the chicken was fantastic. I did not… Read more
I tried not to think it... but I still thought it. Read more
Now I need to find other uses for this sauce. Wings maybe? Read more
