Made you look didn't I? I mean who wouldn't. Look at these freaking potatoes. You take baby potatoes, you boil them, then fry them in a cast iron pan in olive oil and onions.

You will not be able to. I guarantee it! You all know I love me some potatoes, evidenced by my rock star Aerosmith Potatoes. I could eat … [Read more...]

Aerosmith Potatoes with meyer lemon and garlic salt by Cravings of a Lunatic

Okay so let's start out by saying I really hope Aerosmith does not come sue me over this. Steven and buds, if this steps on your trademark toes just holler at me and I'll change the name. Unless you try them and like them, then let's talk. Alrighty roo, here's the explanation you've all been dying to hear when it comes to the name of these. Every time I say I'm making Aerosmith Potatoes people think I'm inviting Steven and the gang over. Which, let's be honest, would be sort of … [Read more...]

Roasted Tomatoes by Cravings of a Lunatic

Today I am posting something more serious than the usual fare I serve up. I heard about The Giving Table from Cassie of Bake Your Day. She had given me the honour of interviewing her for Burning Down The Kitchen. I always ask the folks I interview if there is anything they are working on they would like me to share. Cassie blew my mind with her small request. It was to mention her work with this organization in raising awareness about the conditions workers face in the tomato fields. Her … [Read more...]

Hi folks! Just a quick recipe before I run off to the barn. We had quite a storm today so we are running out later than normal. I did enjoy the rain though. I laid on the couch and watched Supernatural. Hubs came in and asked what we were having for lunch. I may have muttered "a Sam and Dean sandwich" but I'm not sure. I was in a cute boy coma. What I utter during those moments is out of my control. It cannot be helped. … [Read more...]
