“Deck the table with balls of meat Falalalalalalala Really so good no one will leave their seat Falalalalalalala There’ll be none in your trash barrel Falalalalalalala I’d even share them with my sister Cheryl Falalalalalalala” I think one of my (and my sister’s) favorite parts of the holiday season is the excuse to make a …

Green Bean Fiends
Fiends. I keep hearing that word in my head every time I watch the news in the last couple of weeks. I usually stay away from current events on Felt Like a Foodie but the monsters that seem to be popping out of the crevices of this Earth seem to be haunting me. I feel …
Saturday Night Special
The other day on Felt Like a Foodie I kind of joked around about strippers. I meant no offense. We all know that it isn’t a job for everyone and I shouldn’t judge anyone. (Unless your parents gave you a name like Candy Cane, Cinnamon or Sunshine, you really didn’t have a choice.) I do …
Thanksgiving 2015
I just wanted to wish the readers of Felt Like a Foodie a Happy Thanksgiving weekend. Whether you spend the day with a table full of people or a quiet meal with the one you love the most, I hope that not only your belly is full but so is your heart. Personally, I have …
One more reason to change your menu
It is Thanksgiving week. Are there things you look forward to the most like the laughter, a pretty set table or an excuse to eat multiple pieces of pie?

Reincarnating Stuffing
Am I the only one who thinks that about reincarnation? I always wonder if we do come back to life, what would I want to be. A butterfly would be cool because no one ever gets mad at a butterfly. That whole cocoon thing has always been intriguing. Plus, I could have wings with some …
CHILL 2015
Yesterday night we blew into Chicago to enjoy the Ninth Annual CHILL event presented by Luxe Home in the Merchandise Mart. (For those of you who don’t live in Midwest, we were having 30-40 mile wind gusts so we literally blew into the city!) This was my fifth year enjoying the event that benefits The …

“A fun adult imagination is a terrible thing to waste.” I’m not sure if that is really a quote but I guess since I just wrote it in quotes, I could be quoted for the quote. There are a lot of things I imagine. I don’t live in a world of make believe (or maybe …
Extreme Chili
I was standing in line at the grocery store the other day and an attractive man was standing beside me tapping at his wrist. (Please note: He was attractive but no where near as cute as my husband!) I thought it was an indication that he was in a hurry and offered to let him in …
