I’d like to thank the academy for this opportunity to write about the Oscar’s on my blog. A foodblog isn’t a place you would normally go to read about movies and today is no different! I am not a huge “moviegoer”. Sitting multiple hours in those uncomfortable seats really makes me antsy. I inhale popcorn …

Throw Me Some Beads?
As much as I have been enjoying my “Foodie Fun Days,” I will have to admit that I miss personal time cooking in my own kitchen. (My husband is missing it too.). I am having a challenge keeping up with seasonality and miscellaneous holidays. (Groundhog Day, Lincoln’s Birthday, Spay Your Dog Day, Etc.) For example, …
EGG-Cellent Day with the Girls
EGG-citing! EGG-traordinary! EGGS-hilerating! EGG-ceptional! Can you guess what I want to talk about today? Yep, EGGS! (I didn’t want to keep cracking you over the head with my puns.) Once a month or so, I get to have one of the best days ever with my girlfriends, Egg Day! The tradition started after our last …
Way to a Man’s Heart….
I hope everyone had a great Valentine’s Day. My favorite way to show the love I have for my husband is by slipping on the sexiest thing in my wardrobe…my apron! (He will disagree with that statement.) I am one of those women who believe that food is love and the most direct route to …
Lettuce Wrap About the Super Bowl
Are you ready for some football? (Um, not really.) Super Bowl XLVI will be played on February 5 in Indianapolis Indiana. It should be a great game between the New York Giants and the New England Patriots given the amazing season both teams had this year. (Okay, I have no clue how their year went …
Let It Marinate
I love when I open my email (feltlikeafoodie@gmail.com) and find a request for the foodblog. I take all my emails seriously and try to fill the demands of the public. (Public meaning my relatives.) I received such an email this weekend. It went something like this: Dear Foodie, You are incredibly talented, very funny and …
Year of the Dragon Pot Stickers
Happy New Year! Or as they say in China Happy New Year! (I translated for you since most of my readers don’t speak Chinese). It is my favorite of all Chinese holidays. (Okay, I don’t know any of the other holidays.) It is the year of the Dragon, the only legendary animal on the Chinese zodiac …
French Onion Soup Worth Yelling About
It is rich. It is warm. It is a little sweet and a little salty. Its depth of flavor will make you close your eyes in delight. And it can easily be found on menus but not necessarily what you want. (Okay, where am I going with this?) I am talking about French Onion Soup. …
Dropping the Ball on New Year’s Eve
One of my biggest challenges as a foodie is knowing my audience. I’m not talking about an audience like when I used to line up my stuffed animals and do stand up in front of them. (Betty Teddy never got my jokes.) I’m talking about making the right food for the people who will be …
I’m No Dummy, That Cannoli Is Inside Out
One of my resolutions this year is to entertain more. No, I’m not talking about entertaining like in song, dance or ventriloquism. (Because we all know ventriloquism is real craft that only can only be done by seasoned professionals. Did you see my lips move when I typed that? I didn’t think so!) I’m talking …
