The Turkey Always Looks Juicier on the Other Side

November 25, 2011 dinner event

There was an episode on Nip/Tuck (yes I like that show, don’t judge) where a beautiful model struts into a plastic surgery center asking for plastic surgery. (Picture credit from Entertainment Wallpapers) She’s stunning. She’s tall and skinny with curves at the right places. Her hair is shiny and her teeth is brilliant-white. There’s nothing [...]

Foodbuzz 24 x 24: 5 Pies, 1 Hand, Much Booze

August 28, 2011 dinner event

I got a nasty scare Friday night. I called my parents as I do almost every evening, and my dad told me that my mother’s heart was palpitating. My mom has had minor heart palpitations ever since she was 13, but it’s been getting worse since she’s gotten older and hit menopause. The palpitations last [...]

And no matter who that stranger is, he or she responds warmly. Maybe it’s because Mimi [...]

The Present

August 25, 2010 blog meet-up

I talked about the Past. I talked about the Future. You know where this is going. Time to talk about the Present. I’m not actually in the right mind and attitude to talk about the present, because I’m still all hyped up about being back in school. I’ve missed everything about USC—its beautiful, red-bricked, Greek-style [...]

You Say Dog Food, I Say Woof!

July 16, 2010 eating out

I wish I had a t-shirt that said, “Real Foodies Eat McNuggets (Too)”. Maybe I’m opening a can of worms, and several of you are recoiling in horror, interjecting with protests about the questionable meat in the “chicken” of McNuggets, the hormones in the “chicken”, the weird unreadable chemicals, the malpractice of the company, the [...]
