Macaroni and Cheese – Outside the Box

So here’s the thing: originally, I was going to write up a post about the gazillion and one things you can do with cheddar cheese. But I kind of felt like I would be telling you guys things you already know, and so, why bother? Then we introduced this awesome new feature, Outside the Box, […]

It’s Not Meat, It’s You – Let me explain…

I am breaking up with meat. First, I thought maybe meat and I could just slow things down a bit and not see each other as often, but now I realize it’s just not working out. Still, it’s hard to let go. It’s been well over a year since I’ve started distancing myself, but I […]

Nori is not for me – Maki Clack

I’ve been reading Maki Clack since CliqueClack Food came into existence. My sushi experience is limited to trying nigiri sushi once, and it was horrifying. Raw fish is just not my friend. Yet, Debbie had me very intrigued with all of these tasty-sounding vegetarian combinations. Plus, I had never given nori a shot. Nori is […]
