French toast is no exception. It’s top on the list of things I would consider for an ultimate breakfast menu! It’s also something that I am usually skeptical about on the menu of a new restaurant.

Juicing is the best way for me to start a new and intense exercise regimen without starving my body.

I’ve been making chicken nuggets at home since I watched a less than appetizing segment on the news or some discovery channel show about what’s really in commercial “chicken” nuggets, and I use chicken VERY loosely.
I was sort of put off when I saw the plethora of by-products used in the mass-produced chicken nuggets. [Read more...]
This snow is really throwing me for a loop, I have no good natural light for taking food pics and I’m not comfortable driving in the messy road conditions which has me caged in like a bird.
