Hope you had a Happy Thanksgiving nommers! We are thankful for our 15 pound turkey nugget this year. He was just a little bigger than our actual turkey, and raring to get the day going at 4:45 AM.

You know, I think my favorite brunch spot in Ann Arbor is Nick’s. The whole experience is usually quite solid – their menu offers both brunch favorites (Western Omelet or Blueberry Pancakes) as well as some unique dishes (Bacon Waffle or Sweetie Pie Skillet layered with sweet potato tots) that always satisfy, the prices are … Continue reading
Last weekend was my birthday, yo. I did lots of cool stuff. Tin foil on the head like it ain’t no thang. Free Birthday-eve dinner at Mongolian Grill. They have kale on the veggie bar now, for the win. Loadin’ up on those green veggies. Birthday breakfast at McDonald’s. One of my greatest guilty pleasures … Continue reading

Talladay Farms offers two traditional corn mazes as well as a haunted corn maze. Today we took part in the … Continue reading
This past Labor Day Weekend, we finally got around to doing something we’ve been talking about doing all summer – making some BBQ in the smoker. You might remember reading about RibFest 2013 a few months ago. Yes, 2013. It’s been a while. Too long. This time around, we decided to smoke a 4.5 pound … Continue reading
Hey friends! Hope you all had lovely weekends. I enjoyed quite a few fun activities this weekend, including our annual summer work gathering with fantastic food, as always. My plate was filled to the brim with fried chicken, BBQ’ed meats, creamy mac and cheese, grilled veggies (brussels sprouts, beets, sweet potatoes, squash, peppers, and the … Continue reading

Food Burgers on the grill. Wedge salad and steak at Blue Tractor. Homemade pasta salad. KFC, in … Continue reading
