I collect recipes. I do this with the intent of actually trying them at some point but I think it has gotten out of hand. Most of the recipes, I’ve placed into sheet protectors and they are arranged using [...]

I’ve always been fond of Cheetos and for those who have a preference between puffs and crunchy, I must admit that I’ve belonged to both camps although I tend to prefer the puff variety lately. All Cheetos used to be my friends until Frito-Lay came [...]
I love fried food. It goes against all conventional wisdom nowadays to eat very much of it but that doesn’t stop me too often. The problem is that fat makes food taste good. There’s no getting around it. Maybe that’s why the cholesterol lowering drugs Lipitor and Zocor are the top [...]
I have been on a fifteen year mission to find the best fried ice cream served in a restaurant. This self-appointed task has been somewhat hampered by the fact that my husband doesn’t really care for Mexican food and Mexican restaurants are where fried ice cream is generally served (although I’ve read that fried [...]
