  • Whatever Wednesday: Bacon with Brown Sugar and Sriracha

    Before I start my rhapsody on the glories of bacon and Sriracha, let me just confess that this wasn’t my idea and isn’t my recipe, which is why we’re posting it on Whatever Wednesday.  For that we can thank Scott Hutcheson, whose recipe was provided in his blog, and then was picked up and discussed…

  • Gluten-Free and Dairy-Free Pancakes

    Welcome to another segment of our Hangover Breakfast series!  Again, I used the method that the Gluten Free Girl and the Chef have provided on their blog to make an all-purpose flour mix, to choose flours with waffles and pancakes in mind, which I posted previously (see link below).  Waffles are great, but then you have…

  • Sriracha Oven Roasted Potatoes

    For the second post in our Hangover Breakfast series, what breakfast is complete without home fries?  But on the morning after (or pretty much all the time if I’m honest about it), I’m going to be pretty lazy about what I actually cook on the stove top that requires constant attention.  Therefore, I like my…

  • Maple-Glazed Homemade Breakfast Sausage Patties

    St. Patrick’s Day makes some of us think about dealing with the results of the excessive consumption of alcohol. When I was in college, one of my morning after cures was to head to the local IHOP (International House of Pancakes for those of you not familiar with this restaurant chain) on Storrow Drive in…

  • Whatever Wednesday: Farmer’s Almanac Cough Syrup

    So my mother discovered the Farmer’s Almanac a few years ago (or possibly re-discovered, I’ve never asked — I just assumed that city kids didn’t read the Farmer’s Almanac), and this year has a page-a-day calendar version.  Despite living many states away from my mother, I always know what page-a-day she has because she mails…
