The other day I cooked a little dish that I’ve decided to rename: ‘I don’t know what the fuck I’m doing.’ This is mainly because I found myself saying this out loud a number of times while I was cooking it. At one point I nearly shouted it. And that my friends, is the goddamn truth. What I’m…

The Dreaded Tonic
I’ve been dreading doing a recipe that I know beforehand that I won’t like. I’ve been putting it off. But I thought I’d take the plunge, and get one ticked off the list. I can’t stand tonic water. Like, really, really can’t stand it. No G&Ts for me, thank you very fucking much. Blargh. I…
Rapscallions…and rice
Hi. You’re probably wondering what the hell you are doing here. The fuck if I know. Some of you may have been here before. Some of you may be new. Some of you may be ‘constant readers’ like the ones Stephen King refers to in many of his books. I will try to creep you out and amuse you in…
Silky Smooth-talking Bastards
Those silky mother fuckers have done it again!! Another excellent recipe. Silky roasted bell pepper pasta with zucchini and basil ribbons. Hell yeah. It was quite easy too. Especially if you don’t mind chopping. It can be quite therapeutic once you get going, can’t it? chop chop bitches, chop chop. Or you can totally cheat…
Pinto Pretenders
Okay, so I’ve been dying to try the BBQ Burritos with the grilled peach salsa. The peach salsa especially. It looks so mouthwateringly-good in the cookbook. I bought all the stuff to make it, and then BAAAM!! Got a stomach bug and was out of action for 24 hours. Then I wanted to wait another…
Quinoa Oatmeal…with a side of Spartan freedom.
I thought I should try making one of the breakfasts this time. I halved the recipe. (Why? Just because. Don’t ask. Didn’t your mama teach you to mind-yo-own-business?!) It was super easy to make, clear instructions, and while it was simmering away on the stove I decided to watch a bit of ‘Orange is the…
Taco Tuesday…wtf is a jicama?
Okay…so the lentil tacos are tasty as hell, ESPECIALLY the sweet fresh herb salsa. I would never have thought of combining those flavours into a salsa to go with tacos. These Thugs are geniuses. But….I did sort of…divert from the recipe a little…sort of accidentally? Well…unintentionally. I didn’t read through the recipe properly in the…
Who needs a fucking real antenna when you’ve got scones?
Need I say more? Let’s just say this recipe is so goddamn easy to follow that my three year old kid helped me make it. And it’s easy eating. Tasty and it evokes that automatic arm action; that old hand-to-plate-to-mouth-aaaaand-repeat kinda action. And the lavender does give it a sorta fancy pants vibe. Which is kinda…
