When it comes to restaurants, there doesn’t seem to be a shortage of roadhouses. I am not complaining about this, because roadhouses almost always offer familiar favourites and cold drinks, and that’s just about all I require in the context of eating out. I know a few people who tend to pull their noses up … More Here’s your sign to visit Kelseys Original Roadhouse
If you aren’t a fan of shrimp, or shellfish, for that matter, I do apologize in advance for the fact this post won’t hold much relevance or interest to you. But, for those of us who do enjoy shrimp, buckle up, my friends, because this recipe is a friggen winner. I love shrimp, and I … More How about a Shrimp Street Corn Skillet for dinner tonight?
Eggs are, in my own humble opinion, a vastly underappreciated food. Not only are they considered staple ingredients in all sorts of baked goods and dishes, but there are a hell of a lot of different ways you can eat a plain egg. Whether your preference is scrambled, over-easy, poached or hard/soft boiled, eggs are … More Hungry? Some Folded Breakfast Enchiladas might help
A lot of people pull their noses up towards the idea of consuming a hot dog, and while I can understand why, to some extent, I can’t say I comprehend their leeriness entirely. Sure, if you happen to watch a video about how hot dogs are made, or perhaps do an extensive look at the … More Move over, hot dogs; Pretzel Dogs are here to stay
When it comes to French fries, I imagine a lot of people would argue that homemade is the best kind. And, understandably so; a lot of foods are often the best tasting when they’re made by our hands as opposed to a machine in a factory, and many of us tend to appreciate food to … More French Fry showdown: which brand reigns supreme?
As much as most people love consuming barbecued food, I have come to realize that many people do not enjoy the actual task of barbecuing. I don’t think it’s a matter of not wanting to do the actual task of grilling, but rather, a fear of the barbecue itself. I should add that a lot … More Don’t fear the barbecue
I’m a sucker for bowls, and I’m a sucker for anything cheeseburger-flavoured. So, when I spotted a recipe for Cheeseburger Bowls from thepioneerwoman.com, I knew I had to share. My husband brought to my attention how I often create bowls out of whatever we are having for dinner on a particular evening; I didn’t even … More Hopw about some Cheeseburger Bowls for dinner tonight?
Salads have earned themselves a somewhat shitty reputation in the culinary world, and the general lack of appreciation towards them angers me a wee bit, as preposterous as that sounds. I think most people, when they hear the word ‘salad,’ automatically think of lettuce and some shit dressing. If that is the sort of salad … More How about some Jalapeno Popper Corn Salad for your next potluck?
As much as my husband and I enjoy The Keg, we try not to frequent it too often because it is on the pricier side. That being said, we promised each other back in May that we would go out for dinner to celebrate our birthdays – seeing as we are now almost entering July, … More What’s your go-to order from The Keg?
As stated at the conclusion of yesterday’s post, today’s will be a continuation of absolutely arbitrary facts. I’ve always found random facts to be interesting to read, and considering how they’re simultaneously educational and entertaining, I figure there are worse things I could be occupying my free time with. Sometimes I will research specific facts, … More Facts for fun (part two)
My sister is a hell of a cook, and I am fortunate enough to often sample her creations. She is an absolute gem in the sense that whenever she makes something new and exciting for herself and my parents, she always makes extra for Blaine and me. Last weekend she tried her hand at homemade … More Let’s make homemade Big Mac Crunchwraps
I haven’t exactly kept my love for McDonald’s a secret here on my blog, and I’m certainly not going to pretend that I am not an avid fan. The only person I may make this exception for and lie about my McDonald’s preferences to is my mother, and I know she will read this, so … More McDonald’s Birthday Cake McFlurry: yay or nay?
When it comes to fast food, McDonald’s is normally my go-to. I always order a McDouble with bacon and a six-piece chicken nugget with hot mustard, and it positively slaps each and every time. Sadly, McDonald’s is not available via DoorDash, so this past Sunday, I decided to order from A&W for what I believe … More A&W: Yay or nay?
It seems as though just about each and every time I open up Instagram on my phone, I find myself watching a Reel explaining how to make a relatively common food from very uncommon ingredients. Sometimes I can’t help but wonder if some foods should simply be left alone in their harmless existence, and how … More Cottage cheese … ice cream?!
While my background isn’t Polish, it is European, therefore, I have certainly familiarized myself with the joyous creations known as pierogis. Bizarrely, when I was a child, I wasn’t a huge fan of them. Thankfully, I grew up a bit, as did my palate, and while Blaine isn’t the biggest fan of them, I enjoy … More Let’s hear it for pierogis
I haven’t been to Costco in a hot minute, and as much as I could benefit from going, it’s arguably best I don’t to abstain from spending money on items I don’t necessarily need. It doesn’t matter how prepared you are prior to going to a Costco – you’re always going to buy things you … More If you love birthday cake, you need to visit your closest Costco
I was inspired to share a recipe with all of you for today’s post, with the inspiration stemming from a complete and utter lack of functioning brainwaves on my behalf. I think I’m having a Lyme flare-up with the shit weather we have been having here in Southern Ontario (cool and rainy), and despite my … More Let’s make an Amish Breakfast Casserole
My husband’s birthday and my own are a mere four days apart, so we always celebrate them together. We are having a dinner with my parents, sister and grandmother to celebrate, and upon being asked where Blaine and I would like to order our birthday dinner from, we picked a restaurant that prepares one of … More Let’s make a “Killer Club Sandwich”
I wrote a post a short while ago discussing something known as oil pulling. I had never heard of it prior to a friend telling me about it, and because my teeth have taken a bit of a hit with my health over the past year, I was more than willing to try just about … More So, does oil pulling actually work?
The ingredients you incorporate into your rub can quite honestly make or break the cut of meat in question when it comes to steak. Even worse is going without a rub entirely, and in my own humble opinion, preparing any type of meat without seasoning is a crime against humanity. I’m fortunate to have been … More What is your go-to steak rub?
When I was a child, I was absolutely under the impression that calzones were the best-tasting food in existence. I had one and was immediately hooked, and while I’ve grown and matured a bit since this occurrence, I still think calzones are fucking fire, and they’re a common comfort food favourite. I’ve never tried making … More How about some homemade calzones for dinner tonight?
I’ve been seeing more and more material popping up on my social media channels as of late pertaining to baking soda water. When I initially heard of such a thing, my first thought was ‘ew, that probably doesn’t taste great,’ but upon actually investigating the topic of baking soda water, I’ve come to learn a … More Baking soda water: fib or fact? (part one)
I realized I haven’t shared a recipe here on my blog for a little while, so I figured one is due. I try my best to choose recipes I think would please most people, as opposed to something very specific that requires a tailored palate, and I figure pasta is one that normally appeals to … More How about some Cheesy Beef Pasta for dinner tonight?
This could just be my own personal observation, but does anyone else feel as though finding a new and creative recipe on the internet nowadays is rather challenging? There are millions of recipes available, yes, but so many of them are redundant and boring, and, personally, I like a little bit of creativity when it … More How about a Chicken & Cheese Tortilla Pie for dinner tonight?
My mom, sister and I recently had a conversation about fish. Both my sister and I eat fish with Tartar sauce, however, my mother does not, and neither does my husband, Blaine. In Blaine’s defence, he has never really been a sauce guy. He prefers plain and, in my own humble opinion, boring, but who … More Here’s how to make your own Tartar sauce
If there are two things in this world my husband loves more than me, I am inclined to believe they would be hot dogs and pizza. I swear that Blaine could eat pizza daily for the rest of his life and never tire of it, and hot dogs are a close second. I should stipulate, … More Pizza … hot dogs?
I suspect most people who possess taste buds have been to Montana’s at least once in their lives. I don’t think it is an exclusively Canadian restaurant chain, but, in the instance it is, I do offer my sincerest apologies to my American neighbours; without sounding too harsh, you’re missing out. I don’t go to … More What is your go-to Montana’s order?
I think it is common knowledge how important it is to start your day off with a good breakfast. I suspect most of us were inundated with this ideology from a young age by our parents or caretakers, much like I was, and the significance of breakfast makes sense; you want to begin your day … More Cake for breakfast? Yes, please
I started to make dinner before I sat down to write this post, and one of the things I am currently cooking as I simultaneously write this is smoked cheddar sausage. I should arguably clarify that I am personally not cooking the sausage; my air fryer is. Blaine and I love smoked sausage, and we … More How about a Smoked Sausage Skillet for dinner tonight?
This past Sunday, Blaine and I were trying to determine where to go for dinner. We came to the realization that we hadn’t been for dinner together in quite a while and, therefore, should arguably do so again; we narrowed our options down and eventually settled on a restaurant we haven’t enjoyed for a little … More Have you been to Symposium in Brantford?
