Recently, I came into some possession of salmon belly trim (trim is usually pretty awesome and cheap ya know), and I hate wasted food. I decided to make something real quick, easy, and perfect for the (finally) warming weather. The diced trim was just mixed with whatever I had on hand at home- just simply…

Recipe: Pizza Night!
I’m super excited about this post cause I have wanted to try and make my own pizza for a while now. I even trained on the pizza station at my job on Newbury Street (the same place that inspired one of my pizzas in this recipe). I heard from a good friend that I could…
Game of Thrones Recipe: Leg of Lamb in Dark beer with honey and thyme
Yesterday was the season finale of Game of Thrones, and I had the night off: I knew I had to do something special to celebrate. Since this was a special occasion, I decided on leg of lamb. Since I was cooking for a crowd, however, we all pitched in some money. All in all, I…
Recipe: Southern Ribs
This week, I didn’t do a post on Game of Thrones. Sorry. I’ve been laying in my bed, depressed. It was a tough episode. More intense than most episodes. Don’t believe me? People have been freaking out over this episode, because the final scene was incredibly gory and heart–wrenching. I’m not going to ruin it…
Game of Thrones Recipe: Lasagna
Last week, there was no Game of Thrones, and the world shed a tear. Since no Game of Thrones is still not a good enough reason to starve, I still cooked dinner on Sunday, a crowd–pleasing meal that’s easy and fun to make: Lasagna. While this recipe was inspired by Emeril’s Lasagna Recipe on Food…
Game of Thrones Recipe: Simple Fried Chicken
This week I decided to keep it simple while enjoying Game of Thrones by making my mother’s recipe for fried chicken. It was a good idea. Besides, using your hands and tearing food apart with your teeth is so Game of Thrones–y. Ingredients: 1 package party drumettes [$5] Flour, all purpose [$2] Veg. oil…
Game of Thrones Recipe: Lemon Cakes
This week I resumed my cooking for the Game of Thrones themed party The Russian and I throw every Sunday. I decided to make Lemon Cakes, and it was a good decision. I’m no baker, but these were easy to make and were a hit at the party. Of course, the recipe was inspired by…
Game of Thrones Recipe: Fish Tarts
It’s pretty safe to say that last night was one of the best Game of Thrones episodes I have ever seen. Ever. It was thrilling. I decided to go with my take on a medieval surf and turf: fish tarts and grilled sausages. Of course I got the recipe for the tarts from A Feast…
Blogging and its effects on the Boston food community
Kristen Fenton, who writes Indulge Inspire Imbibe, began her food blog on a whim. “I lived in the North End and I was constantly being asked for restaurant recommendations … I just decided to put it online if everyone was asking. It is a nice place to also document the photos I was taking, Fenton…
Spending some quality time with my Game of Thrones Hero
I was lucky enough (and The Russian too, he rides my coattails everywhere 😉 ) to spend some time with Chelsea Monroe–Cassel the other day, author of A Feast of Ice and Fire and blogger at Inn At The Crossroads. For someone who loves Game of Thrones, this woman is practically the messiah. She really…
