That’s me at the Grand Palace in Bangkok, Thailand. My husband and I traveled to Asia a couple years ago. Aside from seeing spectacular Buddhist temples, enduring incredible heat, and riding on elephants (it’s bumpy), we ate A LOT in Thailand.
It’s not only that food is cheap in Thailand. It’s that the food tastes as spectacular as those sparkly temples look.
While in Thailand my...
Remember Dipstock? Yea, it’s been almost a month ago and I just now realized I made a horrendous oversight. One of Dipstock’s most active participants, Cris Goode, made a dip for Dipstock and I didn’t feature it here as promised.
Maybe you recall Cris from Halloween Dipstock. She made FOUR dips then, including a zesty bacon spread. If you haven’t checked out Cris’ site, you...
Here in Colorado you can rarely order a burrito or chile relleno or enchilada without it being smothered in green chile, and that’s a good thing. Once you’ve drenched your cheesy Mexican food in green chile there’s no turning back.
As much as I enjoy green chile, I’ve never bothered to master a recipe, and I’m not sure why. I think this spring is the spring. My mission:...

What I love most about the recipe is her suggestion to serve guacamole with pork rinds,...
I’m not particularly crazy about St. Patrick’s Day. I mean, the party is nice, but the food…well, the food is nothing special. At least that’s what I thought until I discovered corned beef.
Oh, corned beef. You delicious, salty meat, you. Where have you been all my life?
After browsing around the web and finding a Reuben dip on A Farm Girl’s Dabbles and a variety of...
Take a minute to Google the word “hummus.” No, really. Go ahead. I’ll wait.
Notice how many possible results there are? Google tells me that there are 3,830,000 hummus results, which is not quite as many results as bean dip gets (4.4 million), but it’s still impressive. I mean, potato chip dip only produces 315,000 results!
My point here is that hummus is a fascination. It’s a...
