Kyochon

Kyochon

Of course, I never heard of Kyochon. But when I was walking by it with my pal Matt, he said, “Oh…Kyochon!” To me, it looked like another fast-food restaurant. And normally, I’m not a fan of fast-food, but Asian fast-food? Sign me up! So much of their food lends itself to quick service: noodles,... Continue reading »

Tiny Tattoos

Tiny Tattoos

I am not what you would call a “tattoo person”; in fact, I am the antithesis of a tattoo person.  I mean, I don’t even have my ears pierced.  This is one part fear of messing with my skin, one part fear of “the look” from my parents (yes, I am a grown-up), two parts chicken … wait … how many parts is...

Nigel Slater's Chicken Curry

Nigel Slater's Chicken Curry

My sweets, I have a confession to make. My name is Luisa and last weekend, I used commercial curry powder.Yes. I know.

While most of us woke up and went to work this morning, Rihanna got up, slid into this a pile of ruby fishnets and started downing rum out of a cup she found lying next to a chicken coop.

Recipe: Baked Apple Dumplings
