The Secret Sandwich (and Dipping) Sauce for Super Bowl Sandwiches

By Eliot, on February 7th, 2025%

I decided to go through my saved draft archives and see what I could clean up. Honestly, some of them just needed a bit of editing and could be published. Some were missing a lot if information, and some were just mere ideas that I jotted down and saved to explore and create later. . . . → Read More: The Secret Sandwich (and Dipping) Sauce for Super Bowl Sandwiches

What I’m reading….

By Eliot, on February 4th, 2025%

If you haven’t noticed, I’m kind of all over the place with my posts recently. There was the retro rant about days gone by and a book slamming review. I’ve also been revisiting old drafts and trying to rework them to see the light of day.

I’m reading more and more in the evenings . . . → Read More: What I’m reading….

Table for Six and a pitcher of margaritas

By Eliot, on January 30th, 2025%

I usually don’t do EE posts for Lit Happens, a FB book club that I mostly participate in. I’ve only done three plus the very late one I recently revisited, The Farmer’s Wife (which was a Lit Happens feature a few years ago), so I decided to post about our current January read, Table . . . → Read More: Table for Six and a pitcher of margaritas

What in the world?

By Eliot, on January 26th, 2025%

The photo is the blog’s namesake: Eliot (RIP). I’ve been going down memory lane lately. I hate the way my old posts from ten plus years ago sound. This title, however, sounds like a post from 2012. This is a long rant and I couldn’t come up with anything else. . . . → Read More: What in the world?

Pumpkin-Oatmeal Dog Treats

By Eliot, on January 22nd, 2025%

I usually make at least one batch of dog treats during the holidays. I’ve posted my usual recipe here.

This old recipe is good and the dogs love it, but it was a little convoluted to make, especially this past holiday season when I had NO time.

I had four huge pumpkins to . . . → Read More: Pumpkin-Oatmeal Dog Treats

The Farmer’s Wife by Helen Rebanks

By Eliot, on January 17th, 2025%

Another book review from the draft post archives!

Apologies to Helen Rebanks (the author) and to Camilla (who was gracious enough to mail out copies to us) regarding this late, late, post. Camilla featured the book, recipes, and comments in late November 2023! (I was able to send her a blurb and a photo of me . . . → Read More: The Farmer’s Wife by Helen Rebanks

Tiffy Cooks by Tiffy Chen

By Eliot, on January 14th, 2025%

Here is another cookbook review from 2024 that I found in my draft posts.

Chen is another social media star/food blogger made good. (It seems like every single cookbook I pick up is either by a podcaster, Insta-personality, TikTok star or blogger. More power to them!) She shares her home cooking skills by connecting us . . . → Read More: Tiffy Cooks by Tiffy Chen

A review: Beautiful Boards: 50 Amazing Snack Boards for Any Occasion by Maegan Brown

By Eliot, on January 3rd, 2025%

I’m not sure how many cookbook reviews I will do this year, but I read a new one before the holidays and wanted to share.

Even though the “put it on a board” fad may be waning and you can get all the inspiration you need from Instagram, I still love a . . . → Read More: A review: Beautiful Boards: 50 Amazing Snack Boards for Any Occasion by Maegan Brown
