Last week I found myself searching for a side dish recipe to accompany the salmon I had planned for dinner that night. Blackened Salmon Actually, let me pause and tell you more about the salmon cooking method that is such a staple in my kitchen. Typically I purchase frozen wild Alaska salmon filets for this … Continue reading
It’s been far too long since I’ve shared a new recipe on the blog! Twelve whole days, actually, with my “Honey-Chipotle Turkey Meatballs and Roasted Chickpeas” post being my last shared recipe. But don’t worry – I have been cooking, and here’s the evidence. I’m a sucker for any dish involving cornbread. This casserole has … Continue reading
A week or two ago I mentioned here on the blog that I would be attending the launch of the Dishcrawl event in Ann Arbor, and today I am back to tell you how it was! Dishcrawl is a foodie adventure and event that occurs in many cities across the country. I was very excited … Continue reading
Hey bone heads! Just kidding. None of you, my dear readers, are bone heads. Unless you’ve never been to Bone Heads Bar-B-Que before. Then you might be a Bone Head. I should be a salesperson.

I really enjoy reading about others’ StitchFix experiences, so I’m hoping you guys (er, maybe more so the girls, but hey, who knows), might at least find it semi-interesting as … Continue reading
Happy Saturday! It’s a little weird out there today. The grass is as neon green as ever, the sun keeps peeking out from behind the Simpson’s-esque clouds, and there are patches of snow on the ground (which, incidentally, are quickly melting). Last night, I had evening plans for a show on Braun Court, so it … Continue reading
‘Twas a rainy day in Ann Arbor today. A perfect day for nabbing a window seat a Black Pearl and taking advantage of the happy hour food and drink specials, with Five Star SexiMexy. The best fish tacos in Ann Arbor are to be had at Black Pearl. I love the chipotle mayo. Colossal Coconut … Continue reading
I love a dinner made of whole foods! I tried roasting chickpeas for the first time last week, using Not A Leaf’s recipe and method, involving seasoning with brown sugar and lots of garam masala. They turned out great! Smoky, spicy, and sweet, as promised. Also for dinner, I made Martha Stewart’s Honey-Chipotle Turkey Meatballs, … Continue reading
