TV Chef in hot water for over purring over Cat Stew
February 17, 2010 | by Christopher | Blog
What is this world coming to, that a chef gets suspended for sharing his fondness for a delicacy that happens to include a distant cousin of Garfield?
Despite the fact that this is Italian television, you can tell by the host’s facial expressions exactly what is being shared and here desire to distance herself from the [...]
Happy Tuesday in Lunch Lady Land
February 16, 2010 | by Christopher | Blog
One of my favorite Adam Sandler songs! Despite all the recent revelations about problems with the quality of the food being provided to schools today, the food workers do a great job making the most of the resources given to them, and I applaud them for that. So, in honor of lunch ladies (and men) [...]
Vegetarians rejoice!
If you are a vegetarian (I’m ovo-lacto…I eat eggs and dairy but no animal products or meat), you know that it can be difficult to find “grab n’ dash” food. I became a vegetarian in 1997 and I was not aware of Morningstar Farms or Boca products (or they weren’t around yet).

Jurassic-size Birthday Cookie
Our sweet Zachary turned 9 on November 6th…where has the time gone? So, I asked him what he would like to take to school for his birthday treat to share with the class. “The giant cookie”, he replied, without hesitation.
I began making this colossal sized cookie for my family after my friend, Sarah, made this [...]
Pancakes a la gingerbread
Yield: about 14 pancakes
Whether you call them flapjacks, griddlecakes, hotcakes, or pancakes…you will call these delicious!
When our son, Zach, was about 5…he expressed how much he loved pancakes. And, I enjoyed making them for him. However, I quickly tired of the “traditional” pancake. So, I started scouring my cookbooks, not sure if I would find [...]
Pardon the Dust
We’re experiencing what you might call ‘technical difficulties’, and will be working the next few hours to figure out what’s going on.
Welcome to our new home!
Welcome to Mycookingshow.net. For those of you who where expecting MyCookingShow.tv, surprise!
We’ll provide more detail in the coming weeks, but let us just say that we’re not going away – just decided that with 4 kids and a full life schedule it’s hard keeping this a 1-couple endeavor. The best way to fix that is to [...]
