So, last year I did it. I made my husband happy. What I gave him was close to perfection, very hot and made him take a nap instantly. He isn’t going to be so lucky this year. I’m just not in the mood….to make the traditional St. Patrick’s Day dinner. I didn’t want to disappoint …

Comfort Food: Tomato Soup
Comfort. By the time March rolls around in the Midwest, I am looking for comfort from the cold in everything. I want a big fleecy woobie (blanket made from fleece with a colorful pattern) around me at all times. My weekend wardrobe consists of something with elastic around the waist and fuzzy material. (Yes, I …
Make Granola. Not War.
The more I write about food, the more I realize there is so much history behind even the most simple foods. Today’s example will be granola. When I hear “granola” I think of the hippies in the sixties. They were not mainstream people so they rejected the meat and potatoes that they grew up eating. …
Red Carpet Veal Oscar
I’d like to thank the academy for this opportunity to write about the Oscar’s on my blog. A foodblog isn’t a place you would normally go to read about movies and today is no different! I am not a huge “moviegoer”. Sitting multiple hours in those uncomfortable seats really makes me antsy. I inhale popcorn …
Throw Me Some Beads?
As much as I have been enjoying my “Foodie Fun Days,” I will have to admit that I miss personal time cooking in my own kitchen. (My husband is missing it too.). I am having a challenge keeping up with seasonality and miscellaneous holidays. (Groundhog Day, Lincoln’s Birthday, Spay Your Dog Day, Etc.) For example, …
EGG-Cellent Day with the Girls
EGG-citing! EGG-traordinary! EGGS-hilerating! EGG-ceptional! Can you guess what I want to talk about today? Yep, EGGS! (I didn’t want to keep cracking you over the head with my puns.) Once a month or so, I get to have one of the best days ever with my girlfriends, Egg Day! The tradition started after our last …
Way to a Man’s Heart….
I hope everyone had a great Valentine’s Day. My favorite way to show the love I have for my husband is by slipping on the sexiest thing in my wardrobe…my apron! (He will disagree with that statement.) I am one of those women who believe that food is love and the most direct route to …
Lettuce Wrap About the Super Bowl
Are you ready for some football? (Um, not really.) Super Bowl XLVI will be played on February 5 in Indianapolis Indiana. It should be a great game between the New York Giants and the New England Patriots given the amazing season both teams had this year. (Okay, I have no clue how their year went …
Let It Marinate
I love when I open my email (feltlikeafoodie@gmail.com) and find a request for the foodblog. I take all my emails seriously and try to fill the demands of the public. (Public meaning my relatives.) I received such an email this weekend. It went something like this: Dear Foodie, You are incredibly talented, very funny and …
Upcoming Events…
As promised last year, I wanted to give people a head’s up on a few wonderful food and wine events that are taking place in the near future. First, the 15th annual Fairmont Hotel and Resorts Grand Chefs Gala/Jean Banchet Awards for Culinary Excellence is taking place THIS Friday night, January 27 at the Fairmont …
