The Lazy Man’s Chocolate Pie

This year, we’re making pies for our family Thanksgiving feast. All of my brothers and their families all gather at my parents for the day. C is making pumpkin and lemon meringue.

The Lazy Man’s Ginger Chicken Stir-Fry… at least the leftovers

Yesterday—which is when I’m actually writing this—I told the Missus, “You know, every time I make a new dish, I should take a picture of it as a matter of course.

The Bread Machine Chronicles: Homemade Hot Dog Buns

From Bacon [...]
