The blog was on hiatus for a bit because I went to Vegas. So I’m going to take #4 as an opportunity to ramble on about my trip. If you are here solely for the fish dish, you’re gonna have to scroll down a bit. Circus Circus: Claustrophobic and full of children. I have alwaysContinue reading 4.

88. Beef Enchiladas
Hola, amigos! It’s summer and it’s time for something a little spicy, and a little saucy. Enter #88 Beef Enchiladas. I kicked-off the fiesta with some Margaritas which I made as part of a guest post I did for 1972 The Retro WW Experiment. If you want to read the recipe, hop on over to my girl Mimi’s blog.Continue reading 88. Beef Enchiladas
72. Chicken Livers in Sherry
Liver. What a polarizing food. A lot of people hate it. But there are those of us who love it–me, Hannibal Lecter, Eugene Victor Tooms. Ah, speaking of Eugene Victor Tooms, everyone’s favorite liver-eating, bile-spewing, X-File, this just happened: Washington beauty queen weds at 16 — he’s 51 You probably thought actor Doug Hutchison was prettyContinue reading 72. Chicken Livers in Sherry
18. Sweet and Sour Shrimp
1970s at-home Chinese cuisine. Let that idea marinate in your brain for a bit. Scary, right?

InContinue reading 18. Sweet and Sour Shrimp
19. Glazed Rock Cornish Game Hens

Anyway, although I’m not a huge Anglophile (Absolutely Fabulous and Morrissey excluded), I wanted to make something decidedly British in honor of Kate and William’s nuptials. But theContinue reading 19. Glazed Rock Cornish Game Hens
50. Lamb Curry
Let me tell you a little story about me and curry. Imagine it–Pittsburgh, 1999. I had never eaten Indian food (my parents, at this time not being the most adventurous eaters, never ate Indian, so in turn I had never tried it. In fact, I was the one who introduced my father to the wonders ofContinue reading 50. Lamb Curry
54. Shrimp Creole
Now, I didn’t plan to prepare a Creole dish for Mardi Gras, because I really don’t keep track of such drinking holidays. I don’t need a reason to drink–your Cinco de Mayo is one of my any given Thursdays. Now on to Creole Shrimp! Now, with this recipe I followed it to the letter. TheContinue reading 54. Shrimp Creole
63. Spanish Rice: Arroz Espana para loco Carlos Estevez
Yes, Card #63 Spanish Rice. Or as I have renamed it: Spanish Rice for Crazy Charlie Sheen (I am aware that my Spanish is all kinds of wrong). Anyway, I dedicate this meal to my new favorite person on the Earth (which we all know is bipolar).
