Initially I was going to round up the amount and call this 50 Cent Potato Soup, but then I remembered the rapper (aka: "Fiddy") and wasn't sure how a frugal soup recipe could successfully have anything to do with a guy whose big album was "Get Rich or Die Tryin'." And so, introducing: 45 Cent [...]

Witch’s Finger Breadsticks
Thursday, October 22, 2009 in Appetizers, Breads, Food, Kid Friendly, Vegetarian
Come hither, my pretties. That's right… just a little bit closer. These numbers – or shall I say, digits – beckon everyone to bite the hand that feeds them. Well, at least the fingers. Possibly the creepiest breadsticks ever, these witch's fingers are great for dipping in soup or chili, or scooping up some marinara [...]
Bacon-Wrapped Chicken Skewers, aka: “Love”
Monday, October 19, 2009 in Appetizers, Carnivores, Chicken, Food, Gruntworthy for Guys
I knew I was in deep when my guy was having a really bad day, and I found myself Googling bacon-wrapped meat recipes so I could cook him a yummy dinner to help cheer him up. See, I'm a vegetarian, and while, yes, I'm fine with people eating meat in front of me at restaurants, [...]
Spiced Apple Cider, Crock Pot Style
Friday, October 16, 2009 in Drinks, Food, Holidays
It’s the time of year for spiced – and spiked, if you’re so inclined – apple cider! The kind of cider that warms you to your toes after searching for the perfect pumpkin or hiking around the muddy Christmas tree farm. The kind of cider that is a must-have during holiday get togethers. The kind [...]
Easy Peasy No-Lime-Squeezy Key Lime Pie
Wednesday, October 14, 2009 in Dessert, Food, Fruit, Gruntworthy for Guys, Vegetarian
The heart of this recipe is from the side of a bottle. It’s one of those things you look at and say, “Hmm. This looks really really simple. It’s either going to be a glorious disaster or gloriously good.” Oh, oh, oh. Most definitely the latter. Usually I love going the scratch path when I [...]
Roasted Squash with Rosemary and Feta
Saturday, October 10, 2009 in Chicks Dig It, Food, Sides, Vegetarian
I picked up a bush delicata plant at Molbak’s Nursery last May, and stuck it in the garden to see what it would do. The plant itself flourished, though I think I should have hand-pollinated, because we only ended up with three of these wonderful heirloom squash. I gave the first of the three to [...]
Crock Pot Vegetarian Chili
Thursday, October 8, 2009 in Food, Gruntworthy for Guys, Main Dishes, Soups and Salads, Vegetarian
I love, love, love my Crock Pot. I mean, how cool is it that you can throw a bunch of stuff in there in the morning, turn it on low, and come home to a delicious home-cooked dinner, all ready for you to dig in? By the way, have you seen this three-pot Crock Pot? Talk [...]
Apple Pie Muffins
Tuesday, October 6, 2009 in Breakfast, Food, Gruntworthy for Guys, Vegetarian
This recipe for apple muffins is pretty popular at The Hazel Bloom house. An awesomely apple-y muffin topped with pie-crust-like crumbs? I do. You should try Apple Pie Muffins so you can, you know… do too.
Peanut Butter Noodles
Friday, October 2, 2009 in Food, Kid Friendly
My friend Laurie, a devoted mother of two and generally cool chick, shared this recipe with me. She swears it's kid-friendly, and I trust her judgment because this is a gal who very impressively made most of her baby food from scratch, and aside from that time she tried to sneak me disgusting sweet potato [...]
Smiley Cupcakes
Thursday, October 1, 2009 in Entertaining, Food
Sometimes an aspiring domestic diva doesn't have the time to do the things she wants to do. Sometimes she can't make the cupcakes and frosting from scratch, and and go overboard creating impressive cupcake decorations. Sometimes, when the aspiring domestic diva works a full-time job and needs to squeeze in some time in the evening [...]
Teriyaki Chicken on the BBQ (with Tofu Option)
Wednesday, September 30, 2009 in Adaptetarian, Camping Food, Carnivores, Chicken, Food, Gruntworthy for Guys, Vegetarian
I'd been searching high and low for the perfect chicken marinade for a long time before I came across this keeper on Recipezaar, Teriyaki Marinade for Chicken or Steak. This is good stuff, I'm telling you. The flavor makes it all the way inside the chicken, and the chicken cooks up nice and moist – [...]
Blender Mojitos
Tuesday, September 29, 2009 in Camping Food, Drinks, Food
I'm sure there are some that would say making a mojito in a blender is sacrilege, but when we're camping, if it's good, it's golden. I firmly believe in putting the "campy" into camping, after all. And when any recipe involves our friggin' awesome hand-crank blender, all the better – not to mention easier. We [...]
Preserving Parsley
Friday, September 25, 2009 in Canning and Preservation, Food, Garden
Other than the fennel (I have no idea what to do with the fennel, by the way), the big herb garden winner this year has been the italian parsley. Good because I love parsley, bad because the cilantro on its left and the dill on its right didn't fare so well because of it. A [...]
