“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 …

Bean Thinking About Thanksgiving
Writing a food blog around Thanksgiving is really a funny thing. It is one of those holidays you just don’t mess around with because people are really set in their ways of what needs to be on the table. Do you only have mashed potatoes or is it okay to add some scalloped? Maybe you …
Happy Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving! I wanted to take a second and just thank you all for supporting Felt Like a Foodie. You have all touched my life in a way that you will never know. Many of you know my story but for those of you who don’t, the Post Tribune was kind enough to publish a …
Duck Fat Pumpkin Pie Crust
I can’t believe it is already November. It is one of the busiest months of the year with the election tomorrow, Food and Wine Chef Showcase and CHILL next week. (And for those of you who have asked which Presidential candidate I am supporting….I can only give you a hint…it is a man.) November is …
Repurposed Turkey Soup
Thanksgiving is now behind us and I keep running across articles about “repurposing” your Thanksgiving dinner. This makes no sense to me. The purpose of the food is to feed you, right?

Thanksgiving Post #5: Brian’s Song
As Thanksgiving approaches, I get kind of sentimental about thinking of all of the people in my life that make me thankful. As I am going down my list, there is one name that sticks out, Brian. Who is Brian, you ask? Well to my brother in laws disappointment, I am not talking about him …
Thanksgiving Post #4: Work On Your Timeline
Thanksgiving is only a week away. Are you ready? Some of my readers (okay, it was only two people) have emailed and asked me to help them organize their timeline for the Super Bowl of dinners. (This is where the OCD people take out their lists and the unorganized people start to roll their eyes!) …
Thanksgiving Post #3: Good Gravy It’s Less Than Two Weeks Away!
Choo! Choo! All aboard for the gravy train!!! Thanksgiving is in less than two weeks and there is one thing I demand be made by scratch and that is the gravy!! It is one of the easiest things to make and one of the tastiest! It can revive a dry turkey, enrich the flavorless potatoes, …
Thanksgiving Post #2: Side Dish or Super Squash Star?
In the midst of all my foodie fun, I have got to talk more about my imaginary Thanksgiving dinner. Let’s face it; the turkey is the star of the show but what about the supporting cast of characters? You know who they are….the side dishes. The side dishes don’t get enough credit for the role …
