Food Porn: Farmhouse Eatery and Bar

So how ’bout brunch, huh? Yeah, that’s a bacon mushroom omelet with a side of truffle fries.  We stopped at the Farmhouse Eatery & Bar for brunch the other day and this is what I ended up with.  OMG.  It was so glorious, but I’m glad that we walked 5 miles that day.  Check out…

Lost Movie Night Noms: Arc’s Birthday Dinner

It was Archaellys’ birthday not that long ago and somehow I forgot to post the coordinating movie night nom for that celebration. Oops. I don’t know how it happened, but the week must have gotten away from me. It’s always kind of my thing to let the birthday celebrant pick whatever they want and I’ll…

Jerk Chicken Stew with Coconut Rice

Archaellys has fallen in love with Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag and I have to admit, it is a gorgeous game!  This, of course, influenced our last movie night and we had a pirate theme.  Treasure Island (1950) and Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl.  Naturally I wanted our noms to…

Snarfy’s Secret Spicy Sriracha Sauce

Okay, it’s not really a secret if I’m posting the recipe, right?  I don’t know why I haven’t made this more to put on things.  Well…. I *DO* know why and it involves not eating as much mayonnaise anymore.  But.  Well.  Hmmm. I needed something to dip my fries in last night and I didn’t…

Flourless Chocolate Cake

It was Archaellys’ birthday the other day and I wanted to do something special for him.  I let him pick the movie night noms for that week, but I definitely wanted to add an element of surprise.  I used to bake people homemade cakes from scratch, but of course, with me being gluten free, birthday…

Food Porn: Carnitas

I know I tweeted this pic out the other night when I was eating it, but I just had to post the delicious carnitas here too.  You know, for safe keeping.  Good grief, La Piñata, you make some AMAZING carnitas.

Spicy Iranian Chicken Stew

I love my chiropractor.  She’s totally like a big sister to me, and being an only, I’ve always wanted a big sister.  Lauren is one of the most supportive people I know – she’s always willing to listen and help steer or give advice.  In fact, she’s one of my biggest cheerleaders and gave me…

Sukiyaki

I was trying to figure out what to make that would go along with our Miyazaki night of Howl’s Moving Castle and Ponyo…  There are so many delicious Japanese noms that I could make work.  At first I thought about trying to figure out a gluten friendly version of ramen, since that’s what they eat…
