Scrub Russet potatoes. Pierce each potato four times with a fork, top and bottom. Roll in olive oil and coarse salt. (I added some garlic powder tonight – I’m sure it will be delish.) Bake directly on middle rack at 400F for 45 minutes. Slather with your prefered baked potato topping and eat the whole [...]
I stopped at the movie theatre on my way home from work and bought a large bag of popcorn. I’ve been craving real movie theatre popcorn for a few days and microwavable popcorn just doesn’t cut it. Plus, it’s started to have a funny taste to it – the chemicals, maybe? Now I have a [...]
My friend M wanted to be mentioned on my blog, so here he is. He came over tonight and cooked perogies for me. He’s done some sort of cooking school / chef program / whatever so I always let him cook and then I’ll clean up. It works for both of us. We watched some [...]
