Wholly Guacamole, This Stuff is Good!

A couple of years ago my wife went on a happy homemaker spree and started making fresh guacamole for me to enjoy while watching football.  Her guacamole is awesome, and it quickly became part of my Sunday ritual – Jets game, pilsners and stouts, and guacamole with Tostitos Gold chips.  Unfortunately, her interest in making […]

The Super Friends of Snack Foods

I’ve developed a bit of an obsession over the past few months with a pretty lowbrow treat: Munchies Cheese Fix Snack Mix.  I think it’s absolutely the best one on the planet, beating out anything Chex or Cheez-It or Annie’s or Utz can whip up.  Why?  Because it’s the SuperFriends of snacks.

Beyond Beer: Five Things I’m NOT a Snob About

Okay I’ll admit it – I’m a beer snob!  I won’t preach at folks or judge them for drinking whatever they like, but I have high standards about what I drink.  I’m also a car snob and sometimes can’t fathom why folks would spend good money on a boring appliance when they can be driving […]

Off Topic: Waving at the Bus

This is pretty awesome and something I thought you’d all get a kick out of. There’s a guy who has been hilariously embarrassing his 16 year old son each morning since September.  His name is Dale and he’s a stay-at-home dad in American Fork, Utah.  His son Rain’s school bus route changed this year, bringing […]
