A New Gluten Free Snack!
I’ve been on what I like to call the “Athleta Girl” diet for the past month which involves a lot of salad and not much in the way of new recipes for this site. If you aren’t familiar with the Athleta brand or the girls in the catalog, let’s just say that they are all […]

3 February 2012
Shani and I love wine! I’m always on the lookout for the next good value I can get for under $10 at TJ’s, which has led us into our own wine tasting events. It’s always fun and sometimes we find a new favorite, which is what happened this week when we tried 3 new reds […]

This is the simplest appetizer around! (next to chips and salsa that is) We’re fond of both the Original Savory thin mini Crackers (rice) and the Baked Sea Salt & Pepper Crisps Made with Rice crackers.

So these are super simple and yet very tasty, with the flavor of the mushroom really […]

30 May 2011
Okay, before you get too excited, I must tell you that these are not made from scratch onion rings, they are out of the bag. Much more like a Funyun – a cross between a chip and a rice puff – than a true onion ring. That said, I still love them! Salty, sweet, […]

30 March 2011
This one is super basic, but yields a very rich tasting and unique appetizer. If I recall correctly, this one goes back to something they were serving at the Belgian Lion before the Coulons closed it, but I’m not sure. (Arguably, this was one of the best restaurants in San Diego county, and I had […]
