I love to bake hybrid-bread. As you can see, this is the follow up to Pretzel-Nann!

Basically, a high protein/fiber wheat bread pita, with Everything Bagel seasoning (I make especially for myself) and baked on a HOT stone (bakingstone.com).  Awesome flavor, and very hearty and healthy. I think!

It is bad enough we have people stalking us, now, condiments. This is a bunch of BALONEY! (never had ketchup on baloney, hmm…).

This is one of those things where it *JUST HAPPENS*… you are looking through the different stuff, minding your own business, and maybe checking out some sweet onions. Then, BOOM.. Ketchup Stalker ALERT.

I suggest you write letters to your local grocers INDICATING to them that they should not carry products that ask me to FIND them. That is REVERSE stalking, and they are asking for it. NOT GOOD.

Yes. Bored. It will happen even to YOU!  I was reading a cooking magazine (Obviously) and there was this cartoon (above), so I decided to snap a picture, and diddle withit using PicSay on my Android phone. So, there it is. As you can plainly see……… bored!

And the Mushroom is NOT having none of this stupid Sausage sh*t, either.

Lobster FEAR Stew!

Today is a day of days. I was interviewing a Master Lobstereer, and encountered some fantastical story about super heroes, ninja battles and of course, Lobster Stew. Below is a direct quote from Master Lobstereer, GRONSON:

So, as you can see, it was quite the ordeal. In some instances, I believe this man was touched by the God Chicken of the Sea on the efforts to sustain hunger pains. We bow at this excellence.

However! The real news here is an excellent Lobster FEAR Stew that was created by these fine crustacean underwater creatures. Although I cannot share the recipe with you, for obvious trade secret reasons, please gaze at the photo and become jealous.

Welcome to another installment of the title up there. (wtf). Have you ever just did not know what you wanted to drink? Me either. The miracle of this event came to be on Augsto of the Sunday, 8th day of the month. Prior to any bathroom shenanigans.

I came, I had a thought, and here it it. The worlds (my world) first… (wait for it…)

Iced Coffee Root Beer Float!

I bet you wish you were that straw, huh? Getting all that roasty coffee icy root beer flavor flowing through your intestines? Yeah. Mmmm.

I cannot really articulate into words the freakish joy I get when I think about how awesome it would be to use this on some person who does not want me to use it on them.

There are no  more rules! Please make a Telephone Hot dog rotisserie. Or a Clock/Garlic Crusher.

From my FAVORITE gadget blog (gizmodo)

Sure, so I took this photo and dolled it up in PicSay on my Android phone

I have this THING for Mustards. And Containers. Specifically ones that have snapping things on them to keep things … contained.

I also have this THING for my Android phone, and when the mood strikes (Wutaah!) I like to photoshoot something with it.

You MUST love Android, and containers and Mustard to appreciate mobile container condiment computing. If you don’t, you are missing out!

I are responsible.

So there I was:  thinking. As usual, on now I might be able to combine my favorite things so I could ear more at once. THEN! I remembered – I have changed my eating habits. Shux!

Anyway, I love making my own bread now, but there are some things you just have to get from a PRO.  So I do – two of those things being Indian Naan bread and soft Pretzels. But! This does not mean I can’t make the first (I think) ever Pretzel-Naan! And since it will BE the first, it will be the best (to me). So I did.

As you may have guessed, I took a Pretzel recipe, and a tried-and-true authentic Naan recipe and simply combined the mixing and baking process.  Now obviously, I do not have a Tandoor, so I used the greatest thing ever (what else?) a FribraMent baking stone!

Basically, I my awesome bread mix, which has bread flour, whole  graham wheat, flax-meal (for texture and healthiness), and added the Pretzel attitude, but also the smoothness of Naan.  Yes, it worked the first time – yes it’s awesome and NO I did not take any photos. OOPS. It’s STILL rising in a nice dry place.  Soon, I will eat it all.  TO tantalize the taste buds, I scoured Guugle for something poofy and pretzel-like. Here you go (for now)…

My inspiration comes from Andrea!

Boy do I. Recently, I changed my eating habits. Don’t ask. I’ll tell you: I don’t want do have a heart attack due to high cholestoral. So, I changed nearly everything. No red meat, nothing fried and no cheese(!). Well, if the cheese adds something, like salt, that’s fine. I can use less table salt (I don’t use much as it is), and still add flavor.

Anyway, this post is inspired by the link below. 

Serious Eats – Double-Double

Yeah, OK – I’m no chef. Hardly a cook. But I do have an appetite and I know what I like to eat – and I’m here to make you hungry.

That is my philosophy going into this new cookbook I am writing.  It JUST may CHANGE the way you look at, cook and EAT food.  I know, that’s a lot to say in one sentence, but I have been practicing with a writing instructor.    ~

Some of you may be asking – what  is THIS guy going to write about? Well, did you read the title? Its about cooking. It’s a COOK BOOK. I will be cooking and sharing my point of view about food, and eating it.  I typically cook for myself, therefore everything I make and taste rocks.  But now, I want to show you want I can do.  Kapeesh? Good.

Thanks!
