One of my favorite parts of my childhood was singing with my mom and sisters. (Even though half of us were tone deaf.) Mom would pull out her guitar and we’d look at all of her sheets of music and lyrics and beg her to sing certain songs. I remember sitting on her bed (the …

Dog in a Goat’s World
Do you prefer peace? Are you most comfortable at home? Are you artistic but resistant to change? If so, this is your year! It is Chinese New Year and the Year of the Goat…or is that a Sheep? I think people lean towards the sheep because sheep are so cute and cuddly. I like to …
Foodie Fun Day: Ramen Workshop at The Chopping Block (and Guest Blog)
I have a confession. I cheated on Felt Like a Foodie this week. Part of me feels kind of dirty but I also have gotten a rush out of it. Don’t worry, I did it safely….I did spell check, grammar check and didn’t do it for a check. (I’m not that kind of blogger!) I didn’t …
For the Love of Pho
It is a week before Valentine’s Day so the time is right to tell you of my new love. My beloved is HOT, satisfying and good for me. I want every liaison to last forever and I long for it on my lips. It is something I dream about and is the base of many …
Using My Noodle
Know what I hate? (Besides rainy days and Mondays, they always get me down.) Sticky noodles!!!! Have you ever had this problem? (By noodle I am talking about pasta/macaroni not some other kind of weird noodle you may have in mind.) The ol’ hubster (and his noodle) were gone somewhere last weekend and I was …
Foodie Fun Venue by Sunda New Asian

Part of Rockit Ranch Productions, Sunda is a superstar when it comes to showcasing both Eastern …
Are You RA’Eady to RA’Umble?
This February has been VERY popular for competitions. There was the Super Bowl. (But I think more people watched the Puppy Bowl.) The Winter Olympics are in full force in Sochi. (Speaking of puppies, wouldn’t Sochi be a good puppy name?) And then there was Foodies Show Heart this past Sunday at RA Sushi in …
Ravioli Potsticker
I have a shocking confession to make to you today. I hope you are sitting down. Put down any hot liquids so you don’t burn yourself. Ready? I am not perfect. (Sit for a second and let this shocking news sink in before you read any further.) It is kind of like a supermodel that …
Cabin Fever Kimchi Fried Rice
There are a lot of things I am going to remember about the winter of 2013/2014. I, obviously, will remember the innate amount of snow. (Thank you hubby for using your big, strong muscles to clear the driveway so nicely.) I will remember the crazy cold days like this morning’s temperature of -15. Brrrrr. But …
2014 Resolutions
Happy New Year!!! How did you celebrate? Did you whoop it up with friends? Or did you just stay home and drink two bottles of champagne on your own? (You know who you are?) We don’t usually do much to celebrate the New Year. We smooch at midnight (if I am awake) and talk about …
