Mistakes? What mistakes? Ask my dad and he will tell you it was always planned that way. From the home made pizza that fell through the oven racks (way to cut back on carbs w/o trying), to burning digiorno (charred is the new foodie trend) this man is a pizza chef. He can do almost anything else but it seems that pizza is an unfortunate downfall. Hopefully a pizzapro would give him some legitimate backing...

What cocktail shouldn't be made a dessert? But if I must choose lets go with a mint julep. It sounds like a dessert anyway and lends itself well to the category (simple syrup, mint, bourbon). I believe it would be a perfect southern style hit!

wait wait wait...am I the only one that occasionally seriously CRAVES sherbet? As a law student, I could honestly appreciate this lesser substitute, yet easier to snack on.
p.s.-anyone ever tried the strawberry milkshake oreo? Also equally enjoyed this less then par amazing-ness

My favorite winter time soup is chicken and dumplings. My grandmother made the BEST recipe and passed it down to my dad who just passed it down to my brother after getting married. I can reveal what all is involved but the dumplings are similar to alton brown's so its obviously good....

This is a very presumptuous giveaway by assuming Siracha doesn't pair well with everything. (Which it very well could given the circumstances) However I suppose if I have to narrow it down, my favorite dish with Siracha has to be simple, the hard boiled egg. Easiest breakfast to make, salt, pepper, and then let the Siracha sing as the complement condiment. Pizza yes, Asian good yes, but hard boiled egg-simple, practicable, and really get to taste it.

I stuck a thermometer, and I am not kidding, into a faux turkey. I was putting on Thanksgiving for several Indian people and the faux turkey called for a certain temperature; not wanting to mess up I had to make sure it was the the right temperature. However I felt a little embarrassed, and I think others would laugh that I stuck a thermometer into soy. eh-what can ya do?

The Station is always good. Top of the hill and spankys are also great choices-especially on a game day! god i miss chapel hill! really the best way to go is tailgating :-)

Thanks everyone for your feedback!! I am going to attempt my first homemade pimento cheese. wish me luck!

nothing beats corn on the cob, in the husk, grilled along side onions, peppers, and then amazing bison burgers. the ultimate grilling amazing-ness

nothing beats a mango!!

My favorite is Vietnamese stuffed tofu. They are like 2 blocks cut in half and then hollowed out into little bowls and stuffed with mushrooms, rice, and tomatoes. But the seasoning is so delicious and amazing. I crave them soo much!

I did a VEGAN shepherd's pie last year and not a single person could tell and thought it was the "real thing" until I told them after it was all gone. Let me know if you want the recipe!
