This is why we don't leave 14 year olds alone in the car with our cell phones.

Love for Appalachia

"Victuals: An Appalachian Journey, with Recipes" by Ronni Lundy is SUCH an amazing cookbook.  It has taken me a long time to write this review as I immediately ran into problems locating the ingredients.  Almost every recipe called for Sorghum Syrup and that is something that we just don't have up here in Seattle.  The other issue was regarding Ramps...something that I still do not quite know what they are, even after having made several recipes from the book but at least there was substitution of sorts provided. I cannot say if these recipes are accurate representations of Southern Cooking as my entire experience with fried chicken was KFC until I was a pre-teen but I can tell you that these recipes are delicious.  Once you hunt down the Sorghum Syrup (think Amazon), you can accomplish amazing feats. There are great corn recipes, the infamous Skillet Fried Chicken and a Sweet & Savory Banana Pudding that is to die for.  Combine those amazing tidbits wit...

If someone told me to buy a cookbook that only discussed one ingredient, I would have told them they were crazy.  I would have scoffed at the idea that a whole book could be designated for one type of food, cooked one way and still be relevant and innovative.  This is that book. This book is great.  There is so much more to Fried Chicken than I ever imagined. After the introduction (Great for seeing how to cut up a chicken for proper frying, descriptions, definitions, explanations, smoke points...this section has got it all!) author Rebecca Lang has broken the book down into 3 sections: Skillet Fried, Deep Fried and Combination Fried (cooking the chicken prior to frying).   The best part of Fried Chicken is that it is so much more than just Southern Fried Chicken (not to worry, there is an amazing recipe for that in here too!), There are versions of friend chicken from around the globe, and all the sauces that accompany them! Think Saigon Street Wings,...

This Does Not Bode Well For My Future

Yep. I'm definitely getting stupider. Example #1: A few weekends ago I somehow got shampoo up my nose while showering. The following day I got toothpaste up the other nostril. Example #2: I recently gave myself a heart attack when I stepped on a piece of bubble wrap . Example #3: While getting gas the other day I committed the following infractions: * Parked too far back so moved car forward * Moving car forward resulted in my parking rightnext to the pole so I couldn't open my door * Moved car back and got out * Realized that gas tank is on the other side of my car (this is not a new or borrowed car, mind you) * Moved to other gas pump * Got out and realized I had parked too far forward * Had to hold gas pump tight so it would fit because I WAS NOT moving my car again! * Pushed "no" when asked if I wanted a receipt, forgetting that I have been trying to keep track of what all I spend my money on * Finish pumping gas and go to building to ask for a receipt * Walk arou...
