Hot diggety dog! It’s Wiener Wednesday! I’m closing out this month of wieners with just that–a hot diggety dog. This recipe is from Australian Cooking for Today, edited by Anne Marshall. Here is the cookbook: Here is Margot sitting on the cookbook: I was thinking about it and apparently I am on a bit ofContinue reading Wiener Wednesday: Hot Diggity Dogs (1977)
Tonight is the finale of Twin Peaks: The Return. And I am super-stoked, but also extra tired because I just spent the last two days making smoked cheese pigs and then editing a video about them. Please, check ’em out. Make it worth it for me. (although they are tasty and I did cold-smoke inContinue reading Twin Peaks Eats: Jerry Horne’s Legendary Smoked Cheese Pig
Today is National Milk Chocolate Day! And on Twin Peaks: The Return, Agent Cooper finally had himself some damn good cherry pie. OMG, that look of food bliss on Kyle MacLachlan’s face! I truly believe that pie should be celebrated on the regular. So for this special day, I’m going into the archives for a deliciousContinue reading Twin Peaks Eats: Cherry Chocolate Pie (1966)
“Diane, I’ve just opened Laura Palmer’s diary. This is the, uh, the last entry, dated February 23rd. It reads:”‘Asparagus for dinner again. I hate asparagus. Does this mean I’ll never grow up?’” Laura Palmer was a girl full of mysteries. But one thing we do know for sure: she was not a fan of asparagus.Continue reading Twin Peaks Eats: Liberace’s Asparagus Vinaigrette
All Twin Peaks fans–(what are we Peakers? Like Trekkies or Fannibals? Someone tell me, please)–know exactly how Dale Cooper likes his coffee: So I have whipped up a cocktail that is not only as black as midnight on a moonless night, but as dark as Evil Coop’s soul. Speaking of which, what are we callingContinue reading Twin Peaks Eats: Black As Midnight Cocktail
Four episodes. Only four episodes in and we’ve been treated to: Bad wigs, snakeskin print shirts, mysterious boxes, vomiting, outer space, and a chewed up wad of Bazooka gum on a stick. After all of that, I think that we ALL need a drink. For inspiration, let’s go back to episode two of season oneContinue reading Twin Peaks Eats: Audrey’s Freshly Squeezed Cocktail
FINALLY. IT’S SUNDAY AND IT’S HAPPENING AGAIN. I am so fucking stoked for this. I’ve been waiting 27 years for this. 27 years since eleven-year-old me was utterly traumatized by Twin Peaks. I had BOB nightmares for a long while afterwards. And even with subsequent viewings of the series (I think I just watched itContinue reading Twin Peaks Eats: Garmonbozia Soup
In 2014, in anticipation of the Blu-ray release of Twin Peaks: The Entire Mystery, I did a series of Peaks-themed posts. Back then, the idea of David Lynch and Mark Frost returning with a third season of the show was…well, unthinkable. But here we are! Starting with the premiere of season 3 on Showtime onContinue reading Twin Peaks Eats: Jerry’s Baguette With Brie & Butter

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!
Sorry I’ve been AWOL, kittens. But I do have a very good reason–I just moved into my very own house! The house is a work in progress. Very much a work in progress. In the second bedroom it looks a closet exploded–just clothes and clothes and clothes everywhere. And there are boxes filled with random shitContinue reading Microwave Jack O’ Lantern Salad
Today is the day! I should be receiving my Twin Peaks box in the mail this afternoon. Needless to say, I am very excited. Plus, for this final Twin Peaks Tuesday I’ve saved the best for last: the official Twin Peaks cherry pie! This recipe, from Twin Peaks: An Access Guide to the Town, was passed alongContinue reading Twin Peaks Tuesday: Official Twin Peaks Cherry Pie
OK, I don’t have any new content. Because I am tired. And the other website went up yesterday. And I’m just not feeling 100% at the moment. So, to tide you over until next Tuesday, when I will finally get my box set in the mail, here are some Peaks-centric links that will have toContinue reading Twin Peaks Tuesday: 1 Week Left!
So we already know that Agent Cooper loves cremated bacon and eggs over hard. But how does he like his flapjacks? Nothing beats the taste sensation when maple syrup collides with ham! OK, can we agree that Agent Cooper is just one of the best TV characters of all-time? God bless David Lynch for writingContinue reading Twin Peaks Tuesday: Maple Syrup
You know, I never intended for these Twin Peaks posts to be food-themed, but it makes sense since this is a food blog, and Twin Peaks is such a food-centric show. Proof: this scene where for about 2 minutes Ben & Jerry Horne (yes, like the ice cream guys) wax poetic and chow down onContinue reading Twin Peaks Tuesday: Jerry’s Baguette with Brie & Butter
I’m still celebrating the Pieathalon, so it’s a good thing that Twin Peaks is so pie-heavy. Be sure to watch the great video at the end.
In one of the series’ best moments, hell, one of tv’s best moments, Agent Cooper, in the dining room of the Great Northern Hotel, sips a damn fine cup of coffee and orders a very specific breakfast. Now, I’d like two eggs, over hard. I know, don’t tell me; it’s hard on the arteries, butContinue reading Twin Peaks Tuesdays: Coop’s Breakfast
