Ok, So last night Ruth and I decided to go out for dinner.  This is not a particularly odd thing for us, especially on a day off right after a show closes.  Sometimes you just want to not have to cook.  usually on Sunday nights we go to her parent’s house for dinner, but since I had to go in to work to strike the show, I didn’t have time. So, nothing super fancy, we decided to go to the Macaroni Grill in downtown Salt Lake.  We...

Once again I come to you with a post inspired by Mama Kat’s Writer’s Worksop.  This week, the prompt that struck me was number 5: “Describe a home cooked meal that makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside.”  I like to cook and even more than cooking, I love to eat.  Home cooked meals are definitely the best and I have to say, I don’t eat enough of them.  It would be much better for me in terms of my health and my...

I am dedicating this post to a blogger friend of mine, Ella Unread as she has been longing for good cookies.  This recipe is one of my favorite chocolate chip cookie recipes.  The original recipe comes from the people at America’s Test Kitchen.  That is probably what makes the recipe a little more technical, but it is really yummy.  It is kind of a fun recipe to make as well. You don’t have to do some of the things like bake on...

Even though my girlfriend is off to France for the week I am still heading up to her family’s home for dimmer tonight.  It is going to be a Corned beef collaboration.  I love an excuse to make this corned beef recipe, and this seemed like a good one!  I hope that you all enjoy this recipe as well.  It pairs well with mashed potatoes and challah rolls.  If you try it out, let me know what you think!

I Have decided to try something new.  I like to cook.  I probably don’t do it as much as I should, especially when we get into tech weeks for shows (which I am about to start).  However, I try to do some kind of cooking or baking on the weekends so it seems like a good time to post up some of my favorite recipes. I also like to try new things so I have set up an interactive recipe book.  If you try and like my recipes, or if you just have...

So, another crazy thing that that has come through the news is the fact that your hotdog may be in danger.  Everyone knows a hotdog, you may not like them , you may not want to know what is in them, but a hotdog is probably one of the most recognizable foods next to the hamburger.  The hotdog is the staple food of America’s favorite pastime, baseball (along with beer), as well as many summer activities.  What would the summer be without...
