Cuisine to a Five Year Old…

By jen

We have a long history in my house of naming foods in an odd way.  Chicken soup is chickie water, why?  Because I use to be so unevolved I hated soup, called it meat and water.  Now I have seen the light and am nuts about soup.  Daughter No. 4 when she was little couldn’t [...]

Monday Blah…

By jen

Why is it, even though I am not working at the moment, I still hate Mondays?  Just doesn’t make any sense.  The most difficult decision I had to make today was deciding what to do with the two pounds of ground beef I have in the fridge for dinner.  Still not sure.  Meh…

Ok, I Just Cannot Get Over This…

By jen

She Fucking put PEAS in gucamole!  I want to do bodily harm to this woman.  All I can say is she must give a blowjob that has no compare.  I cannot think of a single other reason she is on TV.  She fucking put peas in Guacamole!  She could have called it Vomit Looking Avocado [...]

You Know What Sunday Is? Jen Mocks Food TV Day

By jen

Oh for fuck’s sake!  Sandra Lee is making guacamole.  Dear God!  She is mashing avocado, peas, and onions together and adding rotels.  IS SHE INSANE?  She should be shot for sins against avocados. It looks like a bowl of somethingi that comes out of a baby diaper.  I am now going to go cry for [...]

Ok… I Baked Something To A Good Result…

By jen

Miracles never cease… maybe McCain can win! I wanted cobbler.  Do not ask why… I just did.  So I hit the google machine woo woo.  Problem number 1?  I do not bake so it had to be easy.  I have documented my efforts at baking before; exibit A: Satan’s Barbed Cake. But I was determined [...]

Rachel Ray Just Gave Everyone Trichinosis

By jen

She just said that store bought chorizo is precooked.  I can say with certainty that 99% of the chorizo in San Antonio and most every part of Texas I have shopped freakin’ chorizo is fucking raw.  Perhaps you can find the smoked variety at an epicurean market or some of the bigger HEBs, but not [...]

My 30 Minute Meal For the Night:

Rachel Ray doesn’t have shit on my mad skills of fast cooking. Skettie with Meatballs mmmmm Sauteed baby spinach with bacon and garlic.  Dear GOD… I could eat a washtub full of that stuff. I like them mixed together, btw.

Who Says Four IT Geeks Do Not Know How To Have Fun?

By jen

It is like the begining of a joke… What happens when you get four IT geeks together at a high end seafood restaurant? A Cajun/Mex halfbreed, a German, a Mexican, and a Dominican walk into a fancy seafood joint… Last night the hubby and I went out to dinner with some friends.  Like most IT [...]

This Is Why I Do Not Bake…

By jen

I have mentioned it a million times.  I am no baker.  I can cook like a champ, but baking and me are not meant to be.  My mom gave me a gigantic sysco cake mix that is a just add water thing.  Now I didn’t want to make 8 round cakes so I decided to [...]
