In the season one episode “Tooms” (where we revisit monster of the week Eugene Victor Tooms and all-around creepazoid Doug Hutchinson), this happened: Ah, the scene that launched a thousand ‘shippers! So here is some iced tea (that I obviously didn’t make): NOW HOLD THE PHONE! DID SOMEONE SAY TEA??? Hell yeah, I did! Oh,Continue reading X-Files Iced Tea
In the episode “Syzygy”, Mulder and Scully go to a small town because two teenage boys have been killed under mysterious circumstances (one of the kids is Ryan Reynolds!). Turns out that something is going on that is making things not quite right. While in town, our favorite special agents find themselves acting not quiteContinue reading Fox Mulder’s Motel Cocktail
I told you it was going to be all X-Files all the time this week–so here I am sharing with you Special Agent Dana Scully’s pizza. Why pizza? Have you ever seen the episode “Bad Blood?” It’s super. In fact, since I have been watching choice episodes in anticipation of the revival on Sunday, I haveContinue reading Agent Scully’s Pizza

Oh. Em. Gee. THE X-FILES is coming back!!! This is the SECOND best thing to happen to me in the past year, right behind the Blu-Ray release of Twin Peaks (remember, I did a slew of Tuesdays devoted to that) and then the announcement that David Lynch is going to revisit Twin Peaks in 2016 on Showtime.Continue reading The Truth is Still Out There!
So, the other day I was internet stalking one of my dates*** and I decided to Google myself. Well, that’s an interesting experience. If you do a Google image search for me, I am a wide variety of retro recipe cards, plates of food, screenshots from the X-Files, and pictures of my cousin, Jessica, who wasContinue reading Pittsburgh Fried Jumbo Sandwich
OK, let me apologize for not having an actual weenie dish for you this week. I blogged the hell out of April and I am a bit tired. And it’s hot here. It’s supposed to hit 90 today in Baltimore. Which is disgusting and disconcerting–it’s only April, Mother Nature! But since it is Wiener Wednesday,Continue reading Wiener Wednesday: Fantasy Weenie Roast
Darlings! Happy early Easter! I hope that you get big ol’ baskets full of eggs and jelly beans and chocolate bunnies.

Brian wishes you a totally awesome 2012! Did you all have a good New Year’s Eve and subsequent New Year’s Day?

The exitContinue reading New Year’s Chinese Banquet and The Best of 2011

I was hoping to do something X-Files themed for the final episode of the series, but it snuck up on us. I thought that season nine was a standard-length season,Continue reading 23. Barbecued Chuck Roast, Frosty Melon, & the end of The X-Files

Lamb on Easter Sunday has been a family tradition for as long as I can remember. So I was very happy that Dinner is Served! was so kind as to have provided a lamb roast-centric card in its cavalcade of meals. Only one problem with #13: it is a roast. That means I have toContinue reading 13. Marinated Lamb Roast. An Easter X-travaganza!
