Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: The Sriracha Lover's Ultimate Gift Pack
I use this when I want something a little tiny bit sweet, really hot, and not vinegary. Eggs, noodles, fries. Never pizza. Kiss the cock indeed!
Meat-o-philes, Head to Rare Bar & Grill
I miss the fried pickles.
Awkward Moments With Paula Deen
My boyfriend would leave me for Paula in a heartbeat.
I wonder if this will change his mind or speed up his departure.

Spice Hunting: New Things To Do with Mint
Put your leftover sprig in a glass of water (pull off any leaves below the water) and leave in a sunny window. You'll grow more mint! And maybe more mint = more problems, but I feel like if I can harvest it from a plant, I can just pick what I want and the leftovers will still be a plant!

NYC: McHale's is gone, where's the best bar burger these days?
Molly's, yeah!
But in the interest of not just being a parrot... I'm rather fond of The Old Town Bar's burger.
And... Molly's!
10 Questions With Anthony Bourdain
They both make me a little angrier than I should be at people I don't know. And I'd never buy a pre-chopped onion, but for Pete's sake it's the one vegetable I can think of that is actually miserable to chop!
Bad example, Tony. Pick on something that doesn't bring me to tears to prepare.
Recipes You Can Read in Five Seconds
Twitter makes my brain hurt. Am I that old?
Cook the Book: 'How to Cook Everything Vegetarian' Book Giveaway
Ergh, not that India isn't in Asia, or anything like that.
Cook the Book: 'How to Cook Everything Vegetarian' Book Giveaway
I'm fond of anything and everything with Chinese Broccoli, especially Pad See Il/Euw.
All the best vegetarian dishes I can think of happen to be Indian or Asian. Why is that?
Food myths: Which ones make you crazy?
I always cringe when people insist that MSG is affecting them after eating. Didn't we disprove this a long time ago?
Cook the Book: 'Beyond Nose to Tail' Contest
Finally, the book I'm afraid to win! Please, don't pick me!
The best I can do is chopped liver. I'm a wimp; this stuff scares me! I think of what my grandparents ate and loved, and I'm embarrassed at my own reluctance.
Then again, I don't feel at all limited by the parts I will eat, so there's that.
Enjoy your offal, everybody. I'm backing away slowly...
Food-Themed Baby Halloween Costumes
One of my favorite things is seeing Dachshunds dressed as mustarded up hot dogs. Nothing about a baby lobster bothers me.
In fact, I'd consider borrowing someone's baby just to dress it up like a lobster. Well, no.
Weekend Book Giveaway: Real Barbecue
The Salt Lick in Driftwood, Texas. Can I go back now??
New York French Fry Honor Roll: Add Yours to the List
David Burke in a Box, or whatever that place is called under Bloomingdale's makes ridiculously good fries.
I miss Taco Bell's three-olive enchirito - what do you miss?
The chicken club burrito made an indelible impression on me as a teen, and although they tried to bring bacon back at one point, it was never the same.
I haven't been in about a year and a half after having quit cold turkey. I wonder if I'll ever go back.
Am I a Supertaster?
This debate has been raging among a certain friend of mine and myself for a long time. We tried this test at a friend's party and ended up with hilarious but unhelpful results.
That's her in the pictures, by the way. I looked much more ridiculous but at least had the good sense to take the pictures rather than be in them.
Cook the Book: 'Savory Bread From the Mediterranean'
I'm a biiiiig fan of Pide, if you can call that flat.
Start Scrolling
Gorgeous! Am I proud or embarrassed to be able to identify some of those sandwich bits? And can you make a poster/paint it on my wall? I'm in love.
D.C.'s Best Burgers
Any idea where the best non-fancypants burgers are in the DC area? I love 5 Guys, but we need a different idea.
Lunch with the family and they're not into Fancypantsin'. We don't know DC at all and are staying in Alexandria.
Help?
Photo of the Day: Bounty
Oh, to live where avocados grow...
Cook the Book: 'How to Pick a Peach'
Tomatoes are by far my favorite and the most versatile. I'll eat them raw until I get sick, and cooking makes them even better a lot of the time.
That said, Chinese broccoli is my favorite cooked vegetable. Sorry, tomatoes. No hard feelings, I hope.
7 Train Eating Tour
Have fun. I'll wave from my window.
Cook the Book: 'Pure Dessert'
Chocolate trifle is the most fun to make, I think, because it looks snazzy and I get to build it.
