My Top 6 Cereal Obsessions from Back in the 90's

I no longer take part in eating sugary breakfast cereal, but I can reminisce in a post discussing my favorite breakfast cereals as a kid. In order:

1. Berry Kix

I always ate these watching a Disney movie. One of my most vivid memories is when I would go to my Dad’s house early in the morning and watch Aladdin while eating a big bowl of Berry Kix.

2. Fruity Pebbles More Here...
A Bitter Oil Symphony

One of these days there will come a time when right in the middle of one of my reviews my brain will seize up and I will fall over dead, much like the animator in Monty Python’s Holy Grail. Until then I shall continue my frenzy like search for fame and glory… or at least enough to nudge my way out of pinching more pennies than Scrooge McDuck (curse you 1980s childhood!).

That rambling thought aside, today I am finally bringing you my latest sent by mail product expose, a box full of oily vinegary bottles not used in a movie by Ron Jeremy… via a series of samples from The Spicewood Food Company. More Here...

Fried Spiced Crispy Skin Salmon

This is a guest post from Teczcape.

I actually fried these! Yes, with the intention of getting super crispy skin for these salmon fish fillets-turned-sticks.
For fish without skin, you can do battered and fried fish fillets or fish sticks like this Cod Fish Sticks or Fish Fingers.

San Francisco International Airport: A Major Foodie Destination

I wrote a post about good airport food at JFK in New York about a week ago. This is going to be Part Two of Finally! Good Airport Food. This time around I am featuring San Francisco International Airport, an airport I have visited twice in my lifetime, most recently this past July. My family and I arrived two hours earlier than normal for our scheduled flight back to NYC so that we had enough time to experience what SFO International Airport had to offer our hungry mouths.

Sunday Brunch at Jack Bistro

Every morning that I go to the gym, I always feel hungry afterwards no matter what time it may be. Yesterday after the gym, I had brunch with my sister, her boyfriend, and my boyfriend. I had a sudden craving for eggs and I didn't care in what shape, form, or taste it was as long as I had eggs.

I discovered a restaurant in Union Square, NYC after walking back and forth called Jack Bistro. More Here...
Baking Class, Anyone?

Even though I would call myself a baker before a chef, I still think my technique and creativity could use some sprucing up. I bake the usual cookies, cupcakes, pound cakes, and so on, but I haven’t gotten experimental in a while. My go to dessert endeavors are chocolate chip cookies, vanilla cupcakes, and brownies. Time is not on my side these days, nor is patience, so making an event of someone actually coming to my kitchen and standing there with me to make something unique might be perfect for me.

My macaroni and cheese recipe testing quest continued this weekend with a recipe provided to me by Marissa of Mama Sparkles, courtesy of her sister.

She provided me the recipe weeks ago and I regret waiting this long to try it. It’s definitely the creamiest macaroni and cheese recipe I’ve made yet and I really enjoyed it. There were a few more steps compared to some of the other recipes I tried, but worth it. More Here...
