The other day on Felt Like a Foodie I kind of joked around about strippers. I meant no offense. We all know that it isn’t a job for everyone and I shouldn’t judge anyone. (Unless your parents gave you a name like Candy Cane, Cinnamon or Sunshine, you really didn’t have a choice.) I do …

Thanksgiving 2015
I just wanted to wish the readers of Felt Like a Foodie a Happy Thanksgiving weekend. Whether you spend the day with a table full of people or a quiet meal with the one you love the most, I hope that not only your belly is full but so is your heart. Personally, I have …
One more reason to change your menu
It is Thanksgiving week. Are there things you look forward to the most like the laughter, a pretty set table or an excuse to eat multiple pieces of pie?
