Happy Friday Everyone…or for some of us does it matter what day it is because they are all running together? I will admit that I am pretty good at knowing the days of the week because of my television habits. I’m not sure if that is something to brag about….I know the days of the week….what’s on …

Pandemic Noodles and Petty Thoughts
I’ve discovered something amazing about my ability to write blogposts. It isn’t really a gigantic lightbulb moment, it is something little I’ve known for years. It is actually something that would be kind of obvious to most folks but for some reason it has taken me by surprise. I can’t write with disruptions. I can handle a little …
Hypocritical Oaf
If there was a “Hippocratic Oath” for blogging, I sometimes wonder what it would be. Are there blogging ethics I should worry about? Do I think I am doing Felt Like a Foodie justice? Are there rules we all should follow? It popped into my head on my walk today when I was thinking of the recipe …
Tom Yum Sum
I think I have become kind of a penny pincher. It is weird because I’m not a penny pincher about EVERYTHING. I buy quality clothing and shoes but draw the line at super fancy purse. I do get my hair cut and colored professionally but I go to a home salon to get it done. And usually with food, …
Don’t Be Stressed, Dumpling
How many times a month do you say you are busy or stressed out? It has become your go to answer each time someone asks “what’s up” or “how are you doing?” I’m good with my friends who on occasion use this as their response but there are those people who say it all the time and …
Eggroll in a Bowl
I’m trying to make a decision if I have a bad habit, an obsession or something that requires therapy. When you enjoy something when does it become an addiction? I’m seeing an issue and I’m not sure if it is an innocent behavior or a serious problem. It has to do with bowls. I think I wrote …
Grand Theft Green Beans
I’m not sure where most of my readers live but this week has shown to be one of the most beautiful weeks here in NW Indiana. It is the magical kind of weather where it is cool enough to wear a sweatshirt but warm enough to toss on shorts. It is sunny enough that you …
BS Birthday Blog (Brussels Sprouts Birthday)
I had an epiphany last week. I seem to have a lot of them lately. They are true lightbulb moments that I sometimes look up to see if a lightbulb just flashed over my head. I’m wondering if epiphanies come with age or I need maybe I just need to be medicated. (Now I’m thinking of one …
Xiao Long Bao Or Mistake Memoir
Practice makes perfect or in some cases practice is just practice. My past weekend goal was to make Chinese Soup Dumplings (Xiao Long Bao). Known also as basket dumplings or XLB, they are probably my favorite dim sum option. To make them, you need to plan a day or so ahead because one of the …
Udon Noodle…Um, Not a Noodle…Udon Stir-Fry
New Flash. March is National Noodle Month!!!! Did you know that? Do you need an excuse to eat more noodles? I don’t. I was all excited to write this awesome blog on Udon Noodles and then I got corrected that “technically” Udon Noodles aren’t noodles. This is where the food world is confusing to me. …
