A Saucy Surprise

Yesterday, I had one of those Old Mother Hubbard-esque  I-don’t-know-what-to-make-for-dinner moments. via Now, I don’t know if you are like me, but I hate these moments, and it’s even worse when they sneak up on you while you’re really hungry.

The word “beer” always makes me think of the scene from Mickey Blue Eyes when Hugh Grant’s proper English character is trying to pretend to be a mobster and really can’t fake an italian accent! Now, unlike Hugh, accents I can do, but I’m not much of a beer person. Despite that, I’m just asContinue reading “Beer + Marshmallows?”
