Each and every time I hear the word “peach” this is what I go to. From the 1997 action classic Face/Off, I present Mr. Nicolas Cage uttering one his most iconic lines of dialogue: Brilliant. In honor of the day, here are a few selections from the DiS1972 archives that are….peachy. Click on the photoContinue reading National “Eat A Peach” Day
My sole new year resolution this year was to post once a week–but I’ve failed. I missed a week in February and this is the first post of April. I am so disappointed in me. But, oh well. I’m gonna try to get back on the wagon. FUN FACT! According to the Smirnoff advertising folk,Continue reading Smirnoff Year of the Brunch: Easter Brunch (1969)
Howdy ho, partners! It’s Wiener Wednesday! It is also 3 days to the 5th Annual Cowboy Day Cookalong hosted by our friends at Recipes4Rebels. So today’s post is in celebration of both hot dogs and cowboys. And Elvis. LOGIC: Elvis played a cowboy in multiple movies. In the film Loving You he sings–I shit you not–a songContinue reading Wiener Wednesday: The Elvis Dog (Cowboy Day!)
Welcome to Wiener Wednesday! Time for another delightfully named hot dog dish, Pig-in-a-Poke! This recipe is from Better Homes & Gardens Barbecues and Picnics (1963). Do you know what a pig in a poke is? I didn’t know what a pig in a poke is, so I took to the internets. A pig in a poke isContinue reading Wiener Wednesday: Pig in a Poke (1963)
I made this dish back in February for a mobile meal at Boordy Vineyards. We are members of their Landmark Club. One of the perks of being a club member is the seasonal release parties. You go and taste the wines that are in that quarter’s selection. There is music and a big cheese bar.Continue reading The Best of Bon Appetit: Curried Turkey Salad in Brioche (1979)
Happy Lunar New Year! To celebrate the new year (and my upcoming birthday) Mr. Sauce took me out on Saturday night for Korean BBQ and to see the new Nicolas Cage movie. If you like Nicolas Cage, horror, camp, and alpacas, boy is this the movie for you! I wouldn’t say that it is necessarilyContinue reading Lunar New Year Snicky Snacks (1982)
Hellooooooo! I’m back from my Christmas vacation. I hope that you all had a chance to take some time off and spend it with family–regardless if you celebrate Xmas or not. VACATION RULES! My Christmas was great. I received so many lovely presents from my family, but the items of most interest to you allContinue reading Cabbage Crown and 2015 in Review
Or whatnot. Long story short, I was sick of seeing other people pop up with my oh-so-fantastic name. So yes, random person, you can have the blogspot. And yes, random WTAE anchor, you can call yourself a Yinzerella on your twitter bio. But I got the gmail. I got the twitter. I got the Pinterest.Continue reading Yinzerella Comes Alive!
Today marks the start of Pride Weekend here in Baltimore. So it just seemed appropriate to kick it off with something Absolutely Fabulous. And by Absolutely Fabulous I mean, Patsy Stone & Edina Monsoon: How sweet are these tea towels? Yes, they are tea towels. I commissioned them for my best friend Jamie’s birthday. WhoContinue reading It’s an Absolutely Fabulous Friday!
Hold on a second. Haven’t we seen this card before? Um. yeah we have! This ad appears on the “About Dinner is Served!” page. Check it: That was a little bit of Deja Vu, amiright? Speaking of Deja Vu, have you ever been on a Deja Date? I have. Back in early March. OK, here’s theContinue reading 56. Sukiyaki
Screw Ducky. Screw Blane. (His name is Blane? Blane?) Can we all just agree that Andie should have ended up with Steff in Pretty in Pink? Well, he’d be my pick. Maybe I’m such a fan of Less Than Zero because there is not only Spader but RDJ, too! Another gem with them both: TuffContinue reading Happy Birthday, James Spader!
OK, I am one day late. And for that I feel ashamed. I should really know that yesterday was Mr. Cage’s birthday. Just like I know that today is Elvis’. I had an Elvis post in mind for today (I made dishes from Are You Hungry Tonight?), but it just didn’t happen. Anyway, it seemsContinue reading Happy Birthday, Nicolas Cage!
