Chocolate Chip Cookies Without the Chocolate Chips

The #1 craving I have had this pregnancy? Chips Ahoy! Chocolate Chip Cookies…without the chocolate chips. Does such a thing even exist? To be honest I have never liked chocolate much. I actually don’t like most sweets and have not craved many sweets with either pregnancy. But there is something about the carb-laden “cookie” part […]

The 31st Way to Upgrade Your Ramen

Yesterday, the foodie site Serious Eats wrote about the 30+ Easy Ways to Upgrade Your Instant Noodles. And while I certainly wouldn’t call every method “easy” (just reading about the Ramepherd’s Pie gave me a headache), nor did all the modifications actually look that tasty in this blogger’s opinion (Ramacos and Ramac & Cheese look…interesting), I […]

Leprechaun Trap Cake

Happy St. Pattie’s Day! It’s been a while since I downed any green beer or got pinched for not wearing green on this holiday. Thinking back to my younger, partying days makes me a bit nostalgic (didn’t you know that Koreans are the “Irish of the Orient”? ;-)), but considering my current level of fatigue […]

I ♥ Sriracha Sauce

I haven’t craved much spicy foods since I got pregnant (the horror!), and I have continued to stay away from the stuff while breastfeeding. That being said, I am a connoisseur of spice/hot sauces and my all-time favorite remains sriracha sauce. It is precisely for this reason that I believe this updated food pyramid to be awesome: […]

Guest Post: Freezer Meals

Today’s guest post comes from one of my favorite food bloggers, Amy. While J and I have been very fortunate in that our mothers have been cooking up a storm for us since the arrival of the baby, we would most likely have gone the freezer route if the grandmothers weren’t so readily available (or willing!).

Guest Post: Your Job is Ruining Dinner

I don’t particularly like cooking, and I’m embarrassed to reveal just how many days per week we order in (especially during the latter weeks of my pregnancy). However, home-cooked IS best in my opinion and I prefer my mother’s dishes over a restaurant’s any day. In this piece Susan ponders if women’s careers have lead […]

Dim Sum Flowchart for Dim Sum Virgins

I may be married to a Chinese guy, but I still play it pretty safe when it comes to Chinese cuisine and can be somewhat of a dumbass when it comes to Chinese dishes. This flowchart, which can be downloaded in PDF format, would come in handy for people like me. P.S. — I still […]
