Kelly attempts Crack Pie. Delirium ensues.

Now, if you’re at all present on Twitter or Pinterest (or, you know .. the world) you’re quite aware of this “CRACK PIE” insanity. If not, however — here is a little background: Crack Pie is Christina Tosi‘s addictive and slightly heartbreaking (when it’s gone) recipe, made famous at Momofuku Milk Bar in NYC. It … Continue reading →

Hannah has mi harto. But really.

When I first stumbled upon Hannah Hart months ago, I think my first words were “it’s like she knows my soul.” It’s not an exaggeration. Why is My Drunk Kitchen so popular? (You mean, other than Hannah being the shit?) Simple. It’s popular because Hannah’s obliterated antics rekindle college memories within all of us .. regardless … Continue reading →

Booze obsession meets Pinterest.

As you most likely already know, I’m a big fan of pretty much obsessed with Pinterest. If you’ve even looked at this blog and or my Twitter for hmm, I don’t know .. a milisecond? you would know that I’m also a lover of cocktails and/or any alcoholic beverage (except for solo Jose .. we’re … Continue reading →

EAT. [VIDEO]

http://vimeo.com/27243869

For a video with such a short title and simple concept, it’s certainly inspiring. Rick Mereki, Tim White and Andrew Lees put together this video, containing footage from their 44 day trip to 11 countries, consisting of “18 flights, 38 thousand miles, an exploding volcano, 2 cameras and almost a terabyte of footage.” Next time I’m feeling lack of inspiration for a new recipe or what to eat for dinner, this video will do the trick.

Not to mention Andrew (featured in video) is nice to look at.

If you like this video, be sure to check out their other shorts, MOVE and LEARN.

(I don’t think I’ll be experimenting with any insects, however.)

How to Smoke Meats on Your Stove [VIDEO]

http://vimeo.com/35580909

The people over at SAVEUR.com are becoming .. what’s the word .. my favorite? In this video they show us how to create a stovetop smoker using things you’d most likely have in your house (except for the wood chips … you might have to go out and buy those. Sorry.) This method is perfect for those of us who a. don’t have the money to buy a nice smoker, b. don’t have the outdoor space to put said smoker or c. want smoked meats during inclement weather.

That being said, there’s really nothing stopping you from eating smoked chicken or pork tonight for dinner, is there?

I didn’t think so.

Shirley Temple, meet my friend Jack Daniels.

Shirley Temples are a childhood treat that I don’t think I’ll be growing out of anytime soon. One night I was drinking my go-to whiskey ginger and wanted to spice it up a bit. I found some grenadine stuck in the back of my cupboard and it’s like a light bulb went off — “DUHHH, … Continue reading →

Will you be my Valentine, Chipotle?

My obsession with Chipotle is not normal. Let me break it down for you: I currently live in the lovely state of Vermont. However fabulous, this state does NOT contain a Chipotle. Due to this void in my heart, I have taken it upon myself to create a long-distance relationship of sorts to keep that … Continue reading →

Enjoy & embrace the magic.

This ain’t yo momma’s banana bread — it’s mine. (and yes, with NUTS)

Sooooo … It’s been about a thousand years since my last (real) blog post. My deepest apologies. In a peace offering, I bring you this: You can practically see the delicious bouncing off those heavenly slices. I’m sure you’ve been practically dying since we saw each other last — I know I have. That aside, … Continue reading →
