You used to be my favourite foodporn site. Then there was a battle about ownership and you went offline and someone started foodgawker so I started going there to satisfy my need for recipes. Then you came back online and I considered both sites to be equal. That is, until recently. Nowadays tastespotting has Patron […]

This is the joke that never ends
By Caitlin Jane in food, Griping, loveI wound up at a walk-in clinic this afternoon. Since we’ve been home from Cuba I have been blessed with pretty serious stomach cramps and haven’t had a solid…well, I will spare you the gorier details but let’s just say that the phrase “pissing out my asshole” is appropriate. Now I’ve been told to stick […]

Double Carbo Blast
By Caitlin Jane in foodDon’t be put off by the name of the recipe, it’s so good-one of my standbys. When I first started making it, oh, a million years ago, I had a hard time dealing with the shells, but nowadays it’s totally easy. I think I might have skipped the “rinse under cold water” step. From the […]

And the answer is…
By Caitlin Jane in foodI’ve been into pickling lately, it’s sort of fun to do and satisfies my need to chop things up in an orderly way and then organize them into jars. The eating is mainly not done by me, and that’s also ok. My most recent pickles, the turnips, have been tasted and they aren’t as good […]

Homemade ‘nola bars
By Caitlin Jane in foodSo, as always, I mean to take pictures during the cooking process and then forget. Suffice it to say, the day after, nothing looks as pretty despite it still tasting deliciously. Delicious. Whichever. When was the last time I brown nosed foodgawker? Well, I slurp up that blog daily, bookmarking untold numbers of recipes and […]

Pickles!
By Caitlin Jane in food, making stuff is goodSince Ashley‘s been blogging about making cheese, I got all jealous and wanted to be more productive too, so I am back on pickling mode. I made some pickled beets the other day, but they aren’t that great, I think the cider vinegar I used was a cheap one and watered down. They still taste […]

I love porn! Porn porn porn!
By Caitlin Jane in food, making stuff is goodAnd not the sex type porn, oh, no no no. Food porn. Seriously. I pour over 2 food porn round up websites daily, drooling over beautiful photos and tempting recipes. My favourite used to be tastespotting, but when they went offline due to a discrepancy over ownership, foodgawker was born and now I am a […]

Literary deliciousness
By Caitlin Jane in books and reading, foodA friend of mine-hi Jenn!-posted a picture on facebook the other day that made me to a little sleuthing. Her picture was of a hand written poster advertising soup peddling (with a drawing of a bike) in Toronto. Intrigued, I searched on google for soup delivery and found David Ansel’s website. He’s in Austin, TX, […]

Super supper time!
By Caitlin Jane in foodHave you ever made something from scratch (well, more or less) and it came out pretty much perfectly? I experienced that tonight. At work, I made us tomato sauce and it was so good. I could have had a bowl of that with no pasta and I would have been happy. Sauce: 1/2 zucchini, small […]

The olden days
By Caitlin Jane in foodI went to see my parents today in St.Catharines. We all went to see Madama Butterfly at the movie theatre, part of the Live At The Met series. Butterfly is a pretty huge show, popularity wise, but I am not sold on it’s story. Very sappy and kind of embarassing. I know, she’s 15 and […]
