Wordless Wednesday: Thanksgiving Recap
Pork w/ Garlic Shallot Sage Butter
I could care less about this recipe. I had leftover pork tenderloin from a stir-fry dish the night before and needed to use it up. That’s not to say this isn’t tasty. A good cut of meat and herbs and butter and you’ll have a hard time going wrong. I’m just not much [...] Read More »
Crab Gumbo
What we have here is the baby born out of my first draft of Gumbo. Just like last time, this was influenced heavily by a recent post at No Recipes. What we also have here is a new category on Food Goes In Mouth: Oops!. I think a good percentage of food bloggers subscribe to a [...] Read More »
A Glimpse At Process: First Draft Gumbo

White Boy Egg Rolls

I started thinking about making tasty [...] Read More »

Of course, if you want more pictures of all the unholy food I’ve been cooking you can always check out my Flickr Photostream. Warning: visually sensitive vegetarians may want to take precautions in case [...] Read More »

New School Shit On A Shingle
I have no intention of ever taking a picture of this dish with any sort of colorful garnish. I’m not a fan of useless food decoration. The lamb soup uses the mint. The chicken truly should include that basil. This thing we see above doesn’t deserve or warrant greenery. For [...] Read More »
