10 years. Double Digits. A decade. This month I celebrate the beginning of writing Felt Like a Foodie. I’m really proud of this achievement overall. I’ve written hundreds of blogs and taken thousands of pictures. I’ve met some incredibly famous people who have proven why their stars shine brightly. I’ve also crossed paths with some chefs who have shown me that …
Salads
Romaine Calm
I think I need to compose myself. I’m at that point that I need to make sure my fingers slow down and not type words I don’t mean but I’ve really had it. I’m done. Ka-Poot! I’m talking about this winter! I was misled last week by a “reliable source” that we’d only be seeing one more day …
Your New Favorite Shrimp Pasta Salad
One of my favorite parts of summer is also one of my most dreaded parts of the summer. It isn’t the fact that we finally have beautiful sunshine and yet the afternoons are too steamy to go out. It isn’t the fact that our scenery in NW Indiana looks so amazing that our roads get …
Not Reinventing The Wheel or Cobb Salad
Reinventing the wheel. Some say we should always be thinking of how to make things better and more efficient. We can improve on concepts, make things visually more appealing and keep trying to better a product. We keep thinking that we can improve on things and yet we go back to square one…to the original…to …
A Mean Blood Orange Salad
There is something about the end of winter that brings out the worst in people. I don’t know if it is the cold or lack of sunlight. Maybe it is the fact that you don’t get out to see as many people you would like to because the roads are bad. It could just be …
A NUDE Dining Option….
Naked. Buff. Nude. Stripped. Birthday Suit. Unclad. Bare. Would you go to a restaurant that would give you the option to eat in the nude and waited on by semi-dressed servers? Apparently, a restaurant in London is the new hot place to go to if this is on your bucket list of things to do. …
Undressed
Clothing. Who decided that we needed to wear clothing? We aren’t born that way. (If you think about it, you really can’t be created at all without some nudity involved.) Little kids seem to be content with walking around in the buff and there are parts of this world where indigenous nudity is the norm. …
No News IS Good News
Dim the lights. Get under a blanket. Cue the scary music. Today I am going to share some frightening things with you so I thought I would set the mood first. Are you ready? (Make sure you aren’t drinking any hot beverages as you read this because I don’t want you to jerk suddenly and …
Ty Cobb Salad?
My husband and I did something the other day that we haven’t done for a loooooong time. It is stereotypically something guys want to do more than girls but this time I was pushing for it. The interesting thing is that he only wanted to do it if we had another couple involved. Since I …
Foodie Fun Day: Sweet Tomatoes
One of my favorite parts of spring is getting my tomato plants into the ground with the anticipation of a garden full of sweet tomatoes. There is nothing better than grabbing a tomato off the vine and enjoying it in your meal. Speaking of which….have you ever been to the restaurant Sweet Tomatoes? They call …
