The best non-bacon sandwich….

Happy Easter to those who celebrate it! And if you don’t celebrate it Happy Sunday. Reminder that Easter candy goes on sale tomorrow! Also a reminder that it is April Fool’s Day so watch out for those pranksters. Speaking of Easter candy...my shame candy so to speak (or the one I am ashamed to like) is Chicks and Bunnies (Brachs). Do you have one you are afraid to admit to liking?   Our favorite local watering hole (The Diamond Knot) got a remodel and opens back up next week but we got to go for a sneak peak night and see the new digs as well as try out the new menu. We are very in favor of the cheesy garlic bacon tater tots and their chicken and waffles dish! Most people will find this one silly. But Jarome Iginla got traded this last week. After Briere he is my favorite player and Jerome played for my favorite team the Flames. Iginla has played his entire career with the Flames (16 years) and I can't really think of a time when I don't remember him … [Read more...]

Pull My…Pork…

Sunday is Easter. Wow. Not prepared for that AT all. Are you? Some people asked how do people steal content. Here is a great article by I Am Baker that talks more about the Facebook pages I was talking about. We were talking cooking/baking fears on Facebook this weekend. Most people said baking with yeast? Do you agree or do you fear something else? Ever notice that the people who tell you that the past is the past are the ones who do the crappiest things? And you are to forgive them? Would you say that to someone living next to a sex offender? Oh he/she doesn’t need to register…go let your kids play with them…the past is the past. Yeah, right. Here is an even better idea then telling people they have to forgive and forget the horrible crap you did…don’t do it. Stop being a crappy person that is impossible to respect due to your actions. How about that? Same thing goes for those who always complain they don’t have money but then you see them check themselves in at the … [Read more...]

…And I Feel Fine…

In case you aren’t up on current events you are going to die today…or tonight I’m not totally clear on that. I’m not sure if the calendar went UP TO the 21st and so you are good for today and then at midnight you kick off or if that we die today. Nonetheless we are gonners. I’m hoping that it happens at midnight (going into Saturday morning) because I have the late game tonight and so I would be playing hockey at the time and I am more than sure that is the way that I would want to go. Plus MDP would be playing alongside me playing hockey. And that would just be some sort of made for TV movie if ever there was one. You know, if we weren’t all dead. So because I’m going to die and it won’t matter here we go confession time: When I was 8 years old I wanted a stupid mirror heart that literally cost $.10 and I did not have that. I asked my dad and he said no. So I stuck it in my pocket. I still stress about the fact that I stole that to this day. Ironically I tried to … [Read more...]

On a roll…

Just a reminder still have THREE people who have not claimed their prizes!! Go back and look please! And speaking of prizes make sure to leave a comment and enter for the Amazon.com gift card. Even if you don’t want the prize you can participate in the job question. I am loving the answers they are so interesting! This here is a little deviation from all the sweet treats that are usually on here. Though these do use homemade brioche buns (feel free to buy some) which is baking! I love lobster rolls but they get a little pricey especially when feeding more than one person. So I found that shrimp rolls can satisfy my craving for them especially when you throw in bacon and some avocado to the mix as well. Sadly our avocado that we took with us to the beach was less than appetizing and so it got tossed out but these were yummy all the same! Everyone ate and loved them…even the pup. :) I usually put a little diced celery in mine as well but some of the people eating the rolls were … [Read more...]
