The Boys Who Cook
BY JORDAN KRISTOPIK
- Jambalaya!
I’m not going to try to pretend that cooking isn’t heavily female-based. Preparing dinner for others, planning parties, and being the eternal host…hey, it’s our 1950’s family instincts, right?

Caught Red-Handed
BY JORDAN KRISTOPIK
- Red Velvet Cake that you'll actually want to eat
I do not understand red velvet cake. Why on earth would you want your cake red? It’s not like it’s a specific flavor: “Mmmm, this cake tastes so good and red to me!” Do you know what red velvet cake is? It’s regular yellow cake with a few spoonfuls of cocoa powder and red food dye. Boring, yes?

Paczki Pictures
BY JORDAN KRISTOPIK
- The Beautiful Paczki
Now that I've nearly survived Fat Tuesday, I thought I would post my pictures of my paczki. I got strawberry, plum, and rose from Copernicus Deli, and one custard one from Grosse Ile Bakery, thanks to a friend who drove there today. I can't decide which is my favorite...

Don't Hold Back on Fat Tuesday (Like a Good Catholic)
BY JORDAN KRISTOPIK
The Polish Catholic is coming out in me again. No, I haven’t found a sudden interest in church as my family keeps expecting, nor have I started praying to all the saints. It is, of course, solely food related. Tomorrow is Fat Tuesday. And while many days of the week for me are “fat” based, I really plan on going all out tomorrow.

Microwave Monday: Mug Eggs
BY ERIN GREEN
- These eggs will soon be part of a delicious breakfast sammich.

What, you ask, are Mug Eggs?
They are scrambled eggs, made in a coffee mug. They take less than two minutes to make and produce delicious fluffy scrambled eggs without dirtying a pan and waiting to cook them. Here's what you do:

Super Easy (and Healthy!) Spinach Pie
BY JORDAN KRISTOPIK
- It may be ugly...but it's delicious.
I love spinach pie. Flaky Phyllo dough, lots of feta, and a touch of lemon. All baked to perfection. Spinach pie, however, is not something I can make quickly and easily for dinner. It’s also not the healthiest option for a meal—the nutrients of the spinach are drowned in cheese, dough, and eggs. But thankfully, I have discovered a wonderful solution to this problem: the spinach casserole.

It's Girl Scout Cookie Time!
BY ERIN GREEN
- Meet the Cookies--from girlscoutcookies.org
It's Girl Scout cookie time, basically my favorite time of year. Boxes are so cheap, the cookies remind me of childhood, and of course you're supporting a great cause. My favorites are Samoas, the carmely coconuty chocolatey hexagons, and Thin Mints, dark-chocolate coated minty wafers. Mmmmm.

A Tale of Two Cupcakes
BY JORDAN KRISTOPIK
- Strawberry Birthday Cupcakes
For my birthday, I got a cookbook. But not just any cookbook--a cupcake cookbook. A cupcake bible, if you will. I'm still floored that I haven't yet blogged about cupcakes, my favorite dessert. Hell, my favorite food. I've made dozens of cupcakes, and in the past week I've made two recipes from the book.
