Dan Dan Noodles...Asian-style goodness

The week is winding down and we decided to stay in.  For those of you that saw my original menu plan for the week, I had planned on going out to dinner on Thursday night.  That never happened and we finished the night off with a re-run of the pulled chicken sandwiches from Tuesday.  Tonight,

Pulled Chicken Sandwiches...not your regular chicken sandwich

It worked out well that I had planned this meal for Tuesday.  We had a friend stop over on Tuesday night after an attempt to get together with us on Sunday.  Our friend was going to stop over around 6:30PM and "will have eaten" according to his message.  All is well on that front with

Stuffed Cabbage Rolls

On Sunday afternoon, while the other half was handing out Halloween candy (yes, our city is one of the scared ones and only holds official trick-or-treat during safe daylight hours!), I was working on both a roasted chicken and stuffed cabbage.  I hadn't had stuffed cabbage in years (other than a few times eating the

Home Run Ending to a Mediocre Food Week

I am thrilled to say that this week has been a complete success.  Though I had a few bumps earlier in the week, my buddy Julia came through as always.  This brings me to a periodic concern I have about all the cooking choices available today.  Are you testing your recipes??????  I believe the secret

You win some, you lose some

This week, I attempted a couple of pork recipes that didn’t go so well.

The first was a pork roast from Gourmet magazine.  The roast was a 1 day wet rub marinade that included black peppercorns, pink peppercorns, garlic, and fennel seed.   For taste, it was great.  Unfortunately, the cut of meat I used and the
