Fugly Ugli Fruit
By Tammy in Ingredients on Mar 6th, 2009 | 5 Comments
The Ugli Fruit — it’s… well… UGLY. And it’s in season right now, so I had to give it a try when I saw it during my weekly Russo’s visit.
A member of the citrus family, the Ugli Fruit is mostly grown in Jamaica — where it is sometimes called a Jamaican Tangelo....
Baby Bok Choy & Noodle Stir Fry
I’ve been craving noodles and had a bunch of veggies left in the refrigerator from the juicing, so I decided to throw together an Asian stir fry earlier in the week. Now, when I do things like this… I really suck at keeping track of how much of what I throw in, so bare with me — as...
I am giving up Corporate America for Lent
By Tammy in Eating Responsibly on Mar 5th, 2009 | 10 Comments
Not really… since I don’t celebrate Lent and especially since I am far from religious (pretty much as far to the left as you can get). However, I have decided to try my hand at giving up “Corporate America” for the month of March. Yes, I know… today is already the 5th — but...
Would you like to see our WHINE list?

I thought it would be really funny to post all of the “hate comments” I have ever gotten. It never ceases to amaze me how angry people get with you and how often they feel it’s their right to rip you a part and tell you what you are doing wrong.
In any case, I find it hysterical and...
Bill’s Pizzeria in Newton Centre
I decided to treat myself to one of my all-time favorite pizza and sandwich shops yesterday… Bills Pizzeria in Newton Centre. When I moved to Boston 11 years ago, my first apartment was in Newton Centre — so I had the opportunity to spend some time trying out all of the local restaurants....

What do you think now??? This picture gives you a little better idea of the sheer volume… at least compared to the other pictures I posted.
The picture is blurry b/c it was taken with a camera phone and emailed to me… but you get the point.
You all KNOW what I think… but I am not...
Fasnachts Küchle — Teil zwei (Part 2)
By Tammy in Everything on Mar 3rd, 2009 | 1 Comment
Same food… slight variation on annunciation. The friend who I mentioned in my previous post was kind enough to send me some real pictures from todayof her mother cooking Fasnachts Küchle. She told me that her recipe is almost identical to the one I posted, but with a little less sugar. She also...
Fasnachtsküchle
I was catching up on FaceBook earlier today, when I saw that a friend of mine posted the following update:
“XXX‘s Mom is making Fasnachtsküchle!! Yay!!”
Fasnachtsküchle, what’s that??? Obviously it was food and obviously I needed to find out more information… so I inquired...
Starbucks Straw Conundrum
By Tammy in Everything on Mar 3rd, 2009 | 8 Comments
Has anyone else noticed that the cold drink straws at Starbucks are no longer capabale of holding their shape when inserted into the cold drink lid? I noticed this phenomenon around Thanksgiving and think it’s because the lid is thicker plastic now and therefore, crushes the straw. It’s quite...
