I usually like to make fancy things. Lots of ingredients, complex flavors, and lots of time. Sometimes I remember the best things are the simplest. So last night, as I was driving home from class, my husband put a chicken in the oven and started the rice cooker and corn. How simple does it get!… [Read more…]

One of my absolute favorite things is guacamole and chips. I love my guacamole simple but it MUST have a few key ingredients. They are: avocados, salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Once I purchase avocados I am guaranteed to have the rest of the ingredients at home. It is a simple dish, but it is… [Read more…]

It is a rural town about twenty minutes south-east of Hartford, Connecticut. I pulled up to a beautiful yellow farmhouse like home complete with… [Read more…]

So my husband pointed out to me today that I have not posted since Valentine’s Day! It is now almost the end of April and I have severely been slacking on my posting duties. Well, not really duties, but I have still been slacking. I think I just got sick of trying to be witty… [Read more…]

Superfan and Fan are Indian, and as such, have a love for good Indian food. So they took us to Tantric on Stuart Street. Before I… [Read more…]

On Monday night I made what is one of my most favorite meals. Chicken sausage, eggplant, tomatoes, and mushrooms tossed with some wheat pasta. It is amazing and so simple! First I cube the eggplant, wash and rough chop the mushrooms and put them in a 13×9 greased pan. Then I through in a carton… [Read more…]

In honor of the New Orleans Saints winning the Superbowl, I decided to cook some good old fashioned Cajun food. What could be better than jambalaya! I found a recipe online, as always, and set to work. It seemed like a fairly simple recipe, spicy sausage, onions, green peppers, garlic. Add some diced tomatoes, water,… [Read more…]

Tuesday night was the premier of Lost and I am a HUGE fan. I contemplated making a lost style meal, aka wild boar and mangos with “Dharma beer” but well then I decided I wasn’t sure where to find wild boar and maybe, just maybe, a Lost themed meal was slightly over the top. Instead,… [Read more…]
