Dinner Tonight: Channa Masala

I couldn't get garam masala, and I don't have time to make it from scratch, so I am going to use a Madras curry powder. I'll have to see how it goes.

In Videos: Paula Deen Talks Kitchen Gadgets on the 'Today' Show

She certainly didn't talk about kitchen stuff much. I thought she was going to show off some cool new gadgets. Instead she focused on color and dog stuff, and children's gardening supplies. She seemed rather scattered.

Recession Candy: When the Going Gets Tough, Do You Buy More Sweets?

My bf used to smoke, but now he uses chocolate instead. LOL It's a lot cheaper buying a couple hershey bars a week instead of a couple packs of cigarettes.

Gross Out Food Moment

I have a very strong fear of maggots. When I was in elementary school a friend and I brought in some acorns and put them into our cubby. Well, when we returned to school the following week there were maggots in our cubby. Disgusting.

A girlfriend of our roommates left a bag of buttermilk pancake mix in my cabinet. I can't eat milk or wheat, but I figured it would get used eventually for my boyfriend or something. So, one day that eventually came around. I opened it and found it full of maggots!

I was also just told of a woman who went to an IHOP here and had a GIANT RAT crawl up her leg and into her lap. OMG

Sushi - Love it or Hate it?

Sush is delicious, and I like to make it home. My friends gobble it down at parties, and my boyfriend and I love going for conveyor belt sushi at Geinki. I have to sneak in my own little bottle of Braggs though because of the wheat in the Kikkoman soy sauce.

Sherry Yard's Flourless Chocolate Cake with Meringue Topping

And this is why I wish I could get a nice Kitchenaid stand mixer. I only have an electric hand mixer, and it flings food across the room.

Not Surprising: Vegans Have It Rough In Airports

I have celiac disease, not something I chose mind you all, and lactose intolerance. So, on planes, I don't have the choice of buying the five dollar "snack box" with the mystery "meat stick."
I have to take my own. A lot of people want to take apple sauce cups, but they're an ounce over the limit. What a bummer.
So, last time I flew I took a ton of Larabars, Lunabars, beef jerky, and I took an empty bottle and filled it up with water past security.

Question of the Day: Do you have food allergies?

I have undiagnosed Celiac disease (self-diagnosed), and lactose intolerance. I have been told by some that after going on the gluten-free diet for a while they were able to have small amounts of cheese and/or ice cream again because their intestines had healed. I am hoping to get a good taste of a nice sharp cheddar again some day. I know the brie and me will probably never again be.

During October, National Pizza Month, Sean Taylor Celebrates Accordingly

What bad timing, as October is also Celiac Awareness month. I suppose a gluten-free crust will have to help me celebrate!

What do foodies do?

I'm a student pursuing my AA in Liberal Arts until I figure out how to incorporate all of my loves into a BA; and I work one day a week for a high end jewelry designer. I also spend probably way too much time thinking about food. My bf is constantly telling me that everything isn't always about food, while I think it is.
