peanut butter truffle pops
My very favorite roommate from college requested that I post a cake pop recipe. Unfortunately, I’ve only made cake pops one time… and it was one time too many. Cake Pops? More like Time Suckers. But I...

roasted peach and jalapeño popsicles
Summer time, and the livin’s easy. Unless you live in Arizona just like me. (Sung Sublime style.) Then it basically sucks. Yeah, I know. It’s a dry heat. You know what else is a dry heat? An oven....

carne asada
There’s a little taco shop up the street that Jonny and I hit every now and then to fight over split an order of Carne Asada Fries. Let’s get this straight, there is absolutely nothing about french...

sausage stuffed mushrooms
If stuffed mushrooms were people, I’d marry the stuffiest one and date the rest on the side. I’ve always been a huge fan of mushrooms, and this is one recipe that I ‘tested’ around four times before...

firecracker ice cream sandwiches
Just in time for 4th of July weekend, it’s like a deliciously perfect homemade ice cream sandwich got down and dirty in a bag of Pop Rocks candy… I do have to say that I was hoping for way cuter photos...

caprese salad with crispy basil and pancetta
This dish is what I call a ‘head slapper.’ As in, take the first bite then slap yourself in the forehead and say ‘why didn’t I think of this sooner?’ Then grab a bag of frozen peas for your head, and...

honey mustard spareribs
Yup, there are sticky sweet fingerprints on my keyboard right now. And it’s the perfect time to write this post since Jonny and I just threw elbows to devour the second round of these ribs, and the...

mini bourbon peach pies
I grew up in the era of the original McDonald’s fried apple pies. They were so frickin’ deliciously hot, sweet, ooey-gooey perfect. Then somebody complained about them being ‘unhealthy’ and the next...

blueberry mojitos
I love it when a plan comes together. Especially when that plan involves fresh blueberries, homemade mint simple syrup, and ice cold silver rum. I also loved the original A-Team back in the day, but...

crispy spicy shrimp
It’s official. Jonny and I may never be able to go out to eat again. Of course, that’s somewhat of an exaggeration. But until our kids stop finding it amusing to act out scenes from Wreck-it-Ralph in...

apple fritters
I would probably eat anything if it was cooked inside of a fritter. Well, maybe not anything. Seriously though, I’m hard pressed to think of many things edible that wouldn’t be just that much better...

italian wedding soup with turkey meatballs
Let’s just call this ‘Magic Soup.’ No, not magic like ‘potion-style voodoo’ magic. Magic in the sense that my four year old asks me to make ‘his favorite soup with the green spinach’ at least once a...

creme filled spongecakes
AKA, crap-free Twinkies. Finley and I made these from scratch last week. Three days later Hostess announced the return of the Twinkie. Coincidence? I think not. They were totally threatened by our...

sausage and egg sandwich with maple sage mayo
Weekend breakfast splurge? Yes, please. I’m sure I’ve mentioned before that my parents own and operate an ice cream shop in North Central Pennsylvania before? And because, (like someone else I know...

chicken tacos with chipotle crema
Okay, forewarning. The image below screams ‘gluttony’. I know, I know. It couldn’t be helped. I ate my lone taco in, like, 3 seconds flat because it was that good, so I was left with Jonny’s ginormous...

salt potatoes
Say hello to my little friends. I grew up eating Salt Potatoes and, naively enough, thought everyone else in America did too. They’re such a staple on Upstate NY Summer meal menus that they literally...

snickers bar brownies
Holy. Crap. These are amazing. My magical mind works in mysterious ways. And, quite often my recipe inspiration springs from random bits of strange night time apparitions. Last week, for example, I...

gruyere biscuit topped beef pot pies
When I say “COMFORT”, you say “FOOD”! I’m a huge fan of pie for dinner. Or cobbler. Steak cobbler, to be precise. And this little beauty does not disappoint. When I was a kid we ate a lot of beef....
