I’ve been pretty busy this past week! My brother, Wyatt, stayed with Kramer and me for a few extra days last week and we had a great time. We saw two great comedy shows, ate some delicious food, and while I was at work, Kramer took him to Coney Island, where they rode the Cyclone [...]

This is a really simple summer meal to make after a long day of running around; that’s when I made this. I was in the city all day and didn’t feel like slaving over the stove for very long. I rummaged around in my kitchen and pulled out some random items that I had been [...]

One thing that I miss about Arizona is being able to grill! We live on the top level of our apartment building, so we don’t have anywhere to store a grill. There’s nothing like being able to grill in the summer; it keeps your house cool, it allows you to enjoy some sunshine and fresh [...]

Mexican food isn’t always super hot and spicy, contrary to what you might read on here on my site. I do prefer things to be extra spicy, but sometimes that can come from a few dashes of hot sauce and not from the dish itself. This is a great example of simple Mexican food that [...]

I lived in Arizona for eight years, so Cinco de Mayo is something that I’m used to celebrating with good food, good beer, and good friends. Unlike what many people might think, Cinco de [...]

Mexican food is one of my favorite types of food. I need things to be spicy; I crave heat in my food. If it doesn’t have some heat, I don’t feel like it has any flavor. I’ve been having trouble finding spicy foods in New York, too. Not that there aren’t lots of places to [...]

As I said on Wednesday, Kramer and I have really been missing Mexican food, so we decided to make our own at home. I shared the corn tortillas that I made with you then, and now I present the best chicken tacos that I have ever made. These tacos were nice and spicy while still [...]

Don’t get me wrong; I love New York and I love living here. I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world. The only downfall, as far as I’m concerned, is its lack of authentic Sonoran style Mexican food. I miss the deliciously marinated meats, some of the best carne asada in the United States, [...]
