I hear all the time that people (husbands especially) won't eat left-overs. I can't imagine wasting perfectly good food. I just "repurpose" it.

Organizationally Challenged Or Just A Filthy Pig?

May 2, 2013 2:15 pm

Updated: May 3, 2013 4:49 pm

When I was a young man, I saw no need to keep my room clean or tidy. As long as there was a clear path to the door leading to the rest of the house from my bed, and a path from the bed to the closet, I was happy.

If you watched Sesame Street as a kid, you'll instantly recognize my opening line. Today, it's about food, of course. I am a confirmed foodie. I love to cook, I love to eat, I watch food shows all the time, and I read cookbooks like novels. My collection has outgrown space after space over… MORE

Looking Back. Regrets? I've Had A Few.

Apr. 30, 2013 5:24 am

Updated: May 2, 2013 9:45 am

I've had an interest in cooking and baking as long as I can remember. Some of my earliest memories are of watching my mom bake bread and dinner rolls. I also remember her scratch made chocolate cakes with chocolate frosting. Imagine frosting that doesn't come out of a can! Scratch made… MORE

Updated: May 3, 2013 12:49 pm

The following is a post from another blog I used to write before I started writing posts here on AR. It is a test, more or less, to see if I can get stupid photos to stay in line.
