  • A Fresh Batch of America Balls

    A Fresh Batch of America Balls

    Happy (almost) Independence Day! And by that I mean happy independence day to any American readers. Anyone else who is reading this probably doesn’t care about July 4. In honor of this special occasion I had to make the most patriotic food I could think of: a fresh batch of America Balls! So this is…

  • Stonecutter Ribs

    Stonecutter Ribs

    Summer time equals barbeque time and what better way to enjoy the summer (or your initiation into a secret society) then by having some Stonecutter Ribs. I’d like to take this opportunity to express that I am in no way an expert on ribs. Nor have I ever claimed to be. Full credit for the…

  • Clove Tom Collins Pie

    Clove Tom Collins Pie

    I have been avoiding the Clove Tom Collins Pie recipe for a while, for obvious reasons.

  • Doughnut from Shangri-La

    Doughnut from Shangri-La

    Full disclosure: I didn’t make the doughnut portion of the Doughnut from Shangri-La, it is a store bought doughnut. But my justification is that on The Simpsons the doughnut is ALSO store bought. So that works, right? Right? *Giant sloth shrug* Anyway, while Apu helpfully lists almost all of the the so-called “sprinkles” that Homer…

  • Marge’s Marshmallow Squares

    Marge’s Marshmallow Squares

    Marshmallow squares make a few appearances in early seasons of The Simpsons. Which is important to note because early on they are specifically called Marshmallow Squares and NOT Rice Krispie Squares, which makes me think of a novelty flying disc for some reason… Mr. Burns: Hello, Simpson. My lawyers and I were in the neighborhood…
