Firstly, just because I am posting a New England post today does not mean that I am endorsing the New England Patriots in this Sunday’s AFC Championship. Because, Steelers. Duh. Also, I actively hate the New England Patriots with a fiery passion. And doesn’t everyone by now? I totally don’t understand the people in BaltimoreContinue reading Locke-Ober’s New England Boiled Dinner (1965)
It’s going to snow here today. I don’t know how much, but snow is in the forecast. And when snow is in the forecast, there is nothing better to eat than a big, stick-to-your ribs, comfort food casserole. And when it comes to comfort foods, two of the best are pierogis and lasagna. There areContinue reading Yinzerella’s Lazy Pierogie Casserole
I don’t know why decided to start doing these on Fridays. Oh, no, that’s right, it’s because I’m lazy and can’t find the motivation and/or time to write as of late. And, yes, I know it’s not Friday, but in anticipation of tonight’s Steelers vs Ravens game, I thought I’d share this gem from last week’sContinue reading GIF of the Week (one day early)
This is another dinner that I made so long ago that I almost completely forgot it. The only reason I know that I made this dinner and that I had to eventually write about it is because I have been carrying around the recipe card for No.30 in my datebook (yes, I still use aContinue reading 30. Lamb in Wine With Mushrooms
On Sunday I visited my friends Iris and Matt for the Steelers/Ravens game. The Steelers, in the face of adversity, and in spite of Charlie Batch’s old, achy joints, emerged victorious. Yay. But the real highlight of my Sunday was this hot dog holiday wreath, which was suggested by my friend (and Franco Dok HarrisContinue reading Wiener Wednesday: Weenie Wreath
I was inspired to go Hawaiian this week because the annual NFL Pro Bowl took place on January 29th and was, as always, held in the Aloha State. The Pro Bowl used to take place after the Super Bowl but they’ve since moved it to the week before in an attempt to make the game somewhatContinue reading 69. Hawaiian Spareribs
11 days ago, for Thursday Night Football, my beloved Steelers took on their bitter rivals (real rivals, none of that B’more Ravens bullshit) the Cleveland Browns. I selected #40 Beef Pizza because it is a football-appropriate meal. Cleve and I invited our friends, Leah & Todd who are Ohioans and Browns supporters. An aside–the lastContinue reading 40. Beef Pizza
Please disregard any formatting issues on #47–since I lost this post and had to recreate it piecemeal, it’s not my best work. This was to be the week of the Game of the Century: No. 1 ranked LSU versus No. 2 ranked Alabama in a fight for BCS and SEC superiority. Game of the Century myContinue reading 47. Mexican Chili Con Carne and the Game of the Week
Dear friends, I am sorry that so many of you were distressed and upset by the Browns content of #73 Lasagna. Just remember that, after a Steelers game, you are not on the floor in the fetal position wearing a Bubby Brister jersey lamenting the fact that you have never seen your team win aContinue reading A letter of apology
I do the majority of my cooking on Sundays, but since it is football season (the most wonderful time of the year!) Sundays can get a little busy because of game schedules. We live in Baltimore, but I love the Steelers (obviously) and Cleve is a Browns fan (duh). Last year we became members ofContinue reading 73. Lasagne
Two weekends ago (yes, it does take me rather long to post these, doesn’t it?), I went down to Federal Hill to meet some friends who had driven down to Baltimore for the Ravens vs. Steelers game. As you all know, my beloved Steelers got totally spanked by their opponent. Bully to you, Ravens (althoughContinue reading Retro Reheat Redux: Welsh Rarebit
