Stuffed chicken wings coated in shake and bake extra crispy with a pinch of garlic salt mixed in.   I stuffed them with dark meat this time instead of Italian sausage like last time.


What's with the retro phone? Also I made some pretty good Lebanese style moussaka. Cinnamon makes for such an fine main dish spice.

So its been a while since I posted in this thread. I was going to post ysterday, but I cheaped out and had some take out pizza while snacking around.. Tonight however, my fiance prepared some awesome Angus rib-eye stakes, tenderized to perfection and cooked to perfection as well.. so soft and moist.. Just isnt much like a well cooked/seasoned steak. Had sides of baked potato (real bacon bits, sour cream, cheese) and a nice crisp salad.. Even had a nice bottle of red to wash it down with.. nothing to expensive, but it was fitting nonetheless. I don't always eat nice, but.. it's nice when I do.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep.

Burritos. Jalapeno beans, pepperjack cheese, doused in siracha, with 3 drops (and no more) of ghost pepper sauce for kick.

I eat this 2-3 times a week. Dirt cheap, damn tasty, low(ish) fat.
I'll try anything once, and twice to be sure.

So I don't know what was up but I completely ruined a pumpkin so I had some pesto that was supposed to go with it and I had no idea what to do with it. Decided to get creative with it and add it to some home made tomato sauce and serve it of some penne pasta with some sliced up Italian sausage. Turned out pretty damn awesome.

The pesto was walnut and arugula instead of pine nuts. Its a pretty tasty alternative.

Have a pecan pie in the oven for tomorrow. Its all I have to do as I am going to some family. I don't really know these people and they live in New York. So I am bringing a piece of the south to them and they better damn well like it.

Ham and lentil soup today.

Gonna make turkey pot pie tomorrow. A while back I accidentally discovered that if you use sweetened unsalted butter in the crust recipe, it turns out amazing. Been doing it that way ever since. Also, trying a new version of my recipe for coffee cookies. Cold brew coffee for extra strong flavor, and less baking soda so they aren't so cake-y.

How are coffee cookies? I never was a fan of coffee. Much more a tea person.

I like them, but I am a huge coffee drinker. Most people who don't like coffee don't care for the bitterness, and that doesn't really come through in the cookies.
