Several years ago, my future wife (at the time) and I discovered this wonderfully complex and simple chicken dish.  It was rich fancy (to us at the time) and took 3 hours to cook.  We haven’t had this dish in a few years (due to the 3 hours).  We had some friends over last night [...]

That’s right.  I said it.  I had my first grill out of the year.  While it wasn’t very appetizing, it was still a grill out.  The earlier I can warm up my grilling skills for the year the better.

I have been tasked by my favorite boss (my wife) to cook Christmas breakfast.  This year my family is celebrating Christmas at my house.  Wilie some people might see this as a burden, I see it as a blessing.  There isn’t much I enjoy more then spending quality time with my family.
My wife gave me [...]

If you live on the southside of Indy (or anywhere really) you HAVE To stop by Hula Bean Coffee.  These guys will make you wnat to NEVER go back to Starbucks.  The smoothness is 2nd to none.  They use 100% Kona coffe.  While this makes it a little more expense, it is worth every penny.
