Confession time: I didn’t like stew as a child. I was more about soup. But now I loooooove stew. Especially when it’s cold out. OMG yes. Here’s a pretty basic recipe that you can make on the stovetop if you have an hour or two until dinner. If you have longer, go ahead and assemble…

Finger Foods of Epicness
I must hate me. Seriously, because why else would I make a dinner consisting of only finger foods? While I loooooooove finger foods something fierce, they are one of the harder things to assemble when there’s an assortment. But here’s what I made for movie night on January 31 (sorry it’s late… been busy with…
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…
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…
Movie Night Noms: Scrapple and Eggs
Our movie night for December 27 is Christmas Observed in The Rumpus Room. Arc and I really wanted to have a Christmas celebration with our Twitch family, and this is the best way that we could do it. At first, I really wanted to go all out and make another Christmas dinner. I thought about…
Pulled Pork Extravaganza
Pulled Pork. Aren’t those some magical words? Pulled freaking pork. Please. Yes. It’s relatively easy to make too. I find the hardest decision to make is how to consume it. It was suggested that I turn the pulled pork into pulled pork poutine (thanks Lustymaid!) so that’s what I had for dinner. Arc also wanted…
Lost Thanksgiving Recipe Round-Up
There were a few recipes missing from my Thanksgiving post so I’m going to put them all in one place: here. I know Thanksgiving is pretty much a distant memory as we move closer to Christmas. It was only a little more than a week ago, guys. Seriously. A week. WTF? Anyway, back to the…
Buffalo Chicken Bites and Gluten Free Mac and Cheese
HOLY SWEET BABY JEBUS. Mac and cheese was my ultimate comfort nom when I was kid. I would make the blue box stuff almost every Saturday morning for myself at first thing and have it for breakfast while I watched Saturday Morning Cartoons. And I don’t mean the sissy cartoons they show now (do Saturday…
