You’ll be seeing a lot of popcorn recipes on here, considering popcorn is one of the greatest foods. This caramel cinnamon popcorn mix is perfect for when you want to snack WHILE being incredibly happy. I have also tested this recipe out on runners, and they all approve. One of my favorite things about popcorn is that it…
It’s so hot out. And I know I sound like a broken record every time I walk upstairs, but when I can feel the temperature increase with every step, it seems like the thing that must be commented on. Our landlord graciously fixed our air conditioning, but unfortunately it doesn’t reach the upstairs very well. I look back…
Is there ever a more appropriate time to eat pasta than the night before a race? This sort of ritual takes me back to my high school cross-country days, but pasta the night before a race isn’t just a thing for high-school runners, the Boston Athletic Association serves up a giant pasta dinner the night before the Boston…
Garlic and I have had a pretty complicated relationship in the past, but I think we’ve finally reached a healthy place. Garlic is awesome, and it knows it too. It brings dishes to life and it’s rightly used in some form or another in about 85% of the world’s savory dishes that come to mind. People notice garlic’s…
We’ve come a long way as a species. We used to run to hunt down our food. Now we run with things on our wrist that tell us exactly how far we are going, how fast our heart is beating, and how many steps we’ve taken so far. I’m sure the cavemen also thought such things, but I…
I am a very particular pancake eater. In America, eating cake for breakfast is totally cool as long as it’s made in a pan or in the shape of an “O”. Young Autumn was also perfectly happy when a box of Dunkin Doughnuts (I grew up in Massachusetts, so no Tim Horton’s for me) appeared on our kitchen…
Have you ever woken up with the thought, “today’s a good day for a big breakfast”? If so, this grilled cheese breakfast sandwich is the meal for you. Wanting a big breakfast requires a specific state of mind, at least in my opinion. I’m really not much of a breakfast person (until it’s about an hour before lunchtime…
I don’t think it’s possible to feel like anything less than a sophisticated god/goddess of the earth while eating this dessert. I mean, humans have found a way to turn avocados into a chocolate dessert… At this point, what can’t we achieve? This dessert is more for after you have a lovely, relaxed run in a beautiful nature preserve…
You know how pasta is the standard choice for pre-race carbo-loading? It’s such a classic choice that people may think you’re strange for not eating pasta the night before a race. People who care about running, that is. Anyway, just as pasta is the established pre-race meal, I have come to the conclusion that pizza is the perfect…
How amazing is pizza? How amazing is pizza AFTER A RACE?! Yes, the answer is, “even more amazing.” Okay so usually not right after a race, especially a long race. Right after, I feel more like puking than eating. But later that day, look out world because I’m eating everything. I’m probably more proud of this fact than…
