Cooking

I don't mind a soft pizza, but I can't have a mushy pizza that is just falling apart and not even able to be picked up! I need some crispiness!

So in the spirit of culinary inspiration, what have you tried recently in the kitchen that surprised you? Have you tried a new protein or a new recipe and were surprised at how well it turned out? Or did you try a new twist on an old favorite just to shake it up?

I know we've talked about condiments you put on everything...but what about spices? What are your favorite "use em every time" seasonings?

Bear with me. 'Cos it was PDG, you guys. That stands for Pretty Darn Good, if you didn't know.

Would you try something different with your mac and cheese, or do you like to stick to the traditional stuff?

Steak Frites sounds good now, but you might not be in the mood to chop up thousands of potatoes when the night comes. And then the box/bag is just sitting in your fridge, waiting for you. Judging you.

I mean, how would they possibly be any good, and aren't they kind of pricy? Well, I decided to bite the bullet and try one.

So I had to find out what people are doing with the gall dang dishwasher if they aren't using it to clean.

I did try to get fancy one year and make a Champagne Ham with special home made mashed potatoes. Nobody really noticed.

Once I went fresh cracked, I never went back.
