Yesterday, I had to eat the same sandwich for about 8 hours. It wasn’t some dare I was doing but for a shoot. And don’t get me wrong. It was a great sandwich. An Italian, with prosciutto, salami, and cappicola ham. Sundried tomatoes. Provolone. Lettuce. But still… [...]

Pizza Wars
When I was traveling abroad, in order to make sense of whatever countries’ currency quickly, I developed my own economic indicator. I used a can of Coke. However much it took to buy a coke, I would then scale that to grasp how much things could buy. That was back when you [...]
We’re Just Like Everyone Else
Last night, I went to my favorite bar Jimmy’s to hang out with Siobhan and when I walked in I saw this woman who looked really familiar. She was looking at me too so for a bit I thought I knew her. I felt her name was Gail. I don’t know why.
Then [...]

This is [...]
Monstrous Creations
I played a bit of the Iron Chef alchemist the other night. I had some (hot) turkey sausages that were about to go bad so I decided I should cook them all up at once rather than risk spoiling some of them. So I browned them on a skillet. And then realized they were freaking [...]
TV Dinner
Dear Reader,
I forgot to post some thoughts on the finale of Hell’s Kitchen this week. Forgive me! I know you were curious. Last night, I watched Top Chef too so I can offer some thoughts about both. Double Bonus!
Okay, so it went as expected with HK. Who won? Rock did. [...]
I Am A Freaking Gourmet!
After thinking a lot about cooking for awhile now, I decided to actually do some last night. So I went to Whole Foods and I bought a bunch of crap. I went to the fishmonger. How many times do you get to say that in modern times? (The English major in [...]
Shrimp Takes The Cake
Last night was a bit of a tease. It wasn’t the REAL finale of Hell’s Kitchen but rather the first of a two parter. Not much happened either. They started designing their own versions of Hell’s Kitchen(Bonnie is going really ecclectic and modern with a lot going on; Rock is going very [...]
