    Rum and Zinc

    I know that in my Lawnmower post, I said that I wasn’t going to make a Rum and Zinc because I didn’t want to buy an entire bottle of zinc pills for a single recipe. Well, I recently became aware of all the wonderful properties that zinc possess and… No, not that! As much as…

  • “Breaking Bad” Blue Cupcakes

    “Breaking Bad” Blue Cupcakes

    This is the first time I’ve done a recipe that comes from a Simpsons couch gag. I realize the “Breaking Bad” Blue Cupcakes actually play a part in the episode (What Animated Women Want) as well.

  • Lemonade

    Lemonade

    I think The Simpsons writers are real Lemonade enthusiasts, because this beverage comes up as a plot point more often than you might realize. Of course, the most obvious example is from the classic episode Lemon of Troy, which includes one of my all time favorite jokes: “Wait a minute, there’s a lemon behind that…
