The daughter recently made the Cheeseburger Casserole recipe from the popular recipe book, Saving Dinner. It’s a cute book, and has many good recipes. The Cheeseburger Casserole, however, was not so hot. OK, I admit I’m not a fan of casseroles, anyway. They almost always have pasta or rice in them, and I actually don’t [...]

Every week I am going to try posting a tentative menu plan. Right now, everything is usually scrawled all over half dozen sticky notes, and we all know how organized those can be. :-p So maybe by posting things here, I won’t forget what on earth I’m making for dinner 5 days ahead! If you [...]

I can’t say I am terribly fond of baked ziti. It tends to be dry and a bit tasteless to me. I am very find of Italian dishes but baked ziti seems to be very… American. lol. American style is great for a citizen watch or architecture, but I think American food tends to be [...]

Yes, I’m blogging about the iPhone Crockpot app AGAIN. I’m purposely forcing myself to try out a large number of the recipes (I usually grow bored with them by now), so that I can get used to the thing. If you’re wondering what I’m talking about, see my post here about the app I’ve been [...]

I mentioned earlier that I downloaded a new app for the iPhone, the Crock-Pot Slow Cooker Recipe Finder app. I’ve been toodling around with it a lot. I’ve built a list of favorite recipes from it. The best thing I like about the app is the ability to save a recipe, and the app with [...]

I joined Foodbuzz eons ago. I have since tried to understand how on earth the thing works, but have been unable to figure it out. What the heck does it do? Is it just a cooking kiosk, a site where people toss up links to their food blogs? Is it a voting site, where people [...]

Store-bought apple cider is so expensive! I did a little research to see how I could make my own. I had no idea it was so complex! :S This video is very entertaining, the guy tells about the basic process of making cider. LOL. I love the guys’ faces when they try their cider. LOLOL!! [...]

Look at this screenshot. Doesn’t this make your mouth WATER?! It’s from Foodbuzz. That luscious dessert is Tiramisu, a luscious Italian dessert. The recipe is here, although it’s in Italian so i can’t make heads nor tails of it. Whatever it says, the dessert looks fabulous. I get emails from Foodbuzz just about every day, [...]

I got an iPod. I LOVE IT I LOVE IT! I’ve been wondering about getting one for the longest time, and I finally did. It’s really an amazing little tool. I use it for EVERYTHING now. I’ve been wanting an organizer like this for a long, long time. The coolest thing I discovered is Apps. [...]

I found this website called TasteSpotting. WOW. The stuff looks so good. It’s a “pictorial” kind of cookbook. There are almost 3,000 pages filled with photos. You can click a photo card to view the recipe, and print it out from your Acer Aspire or whatever. Yum! I saw a lot of Asian recipes, and [...]
