One week…seven recipes…boo yeah! Hopefully the first week of unResolution month has been “full filling” for you and that I am making you as hungry as I am making me. Speaking of me, today’s recipe is near and dear to my heart … insofar as it tried to clog it up with lots of grease […]

Twilight Vegetarian Food Rage
Every now and then something comes along and tells me that vegetarians and vegans still have a long way to go. Friday night was date night for me and my wife and she REALLY wanted to see Twilight. We compromised for our date night. First, we went to go to Spin (which I like) and […]

Food Wars: Carnivore, Vegetarian, Vegan, Raw
So I’m vegan. I don’t really talk about it too much on Blog Well Done because I am afraid I might scare off some of my hypothetical readers. I wasn’t always vegan but got inspiration from, vegan4k.com. In fact, when I was still doing blogspot.wordpress.com, I was a carnivore, though given that my wife was […]
Chinese Cooking
Chinese cooking has long been an topic at which I have turned up my nose. For many years, I was awash in a sea of Panda Expresses, crab rangoon filled with Philadelphia cream cheese, and MSG-laden Chinese buffets. A lot of that had to do with college. During those four years, I looked at Chinese […]
Mmm… Shogun
Tonight we went to my favorite sushi place…Shogun in Overland Park, KS. (Yes, Kansas seems an odd place for the mecca of sushi, but I’ve eaten sushi in every town I visit. Shogun is best, though Maki in Irvine, CA isn’t too shabby.) So there’s only one problem…I’m vegan. I do have an ace up […]
When I Am Sick, I Crave Junk Food
I don’t get it. I really don’t understand. At a time when I should be loading my body with fresh fruits and vegetables and all the vitamins and minerals that entails, all I want to do is eat two things: hot and sour soup and friend wontons. This has been the meal of choice for […]
Tag, We’re It
Sue tagged me. And since hers is my favoritist blog ever, I decided I should respond in kind. No matter how long it took me. Rules: 1. Link to your tagger and post these rules. 2. Share 5 facts about yourself 3. Tag 5 people at the end of your post and list their names […]
Cheap Entertaining or a Reasonable Facsimile Thereof
This idea has really started to resonate with me. After a Christmas party that carried a nearly $20/head charge, the Super Bowl, and my birthday coming up, entertaining has just been on my mind. I try to stay away from entertaining as a topic here because there are many excellent blogs that cover it. However, I […]
