Today marks the 18th day of my “Kill Fatty” plan and I weight 324.8 pounds. Those of you following along at home may notice that’s a bit higher than my Saturday weight of 323. I’m thinking that 323 was one of those weird scale anomolies instead and of weighing myself again for accuracy, I jumped [...]
I found an interesting treat on my doorstep the other day: Meyer Lemons. Meyer Lemons are guessed to be a cross between an orange and a lemon, but more to the lemon side. Apparently they are now selling them at Giant Eagle and they thought I’d appreciate having them. Well [...]
Although my first post about my decision to lose weight was yesterday, today is actually the 12th day of the process. In that 12 days I’ve lost 13 pounds. Hells yes. That’s some pretty sweet shit. So I’m down to 323 pounds.
One might ask, how can you lose 13 pounds in [...]
I have an addiction. Unlike a lot of other people with addictions, my addiction is socially acceptable. It doesn’t cause me to miss work or smack around my wife. I’ve never had to borrow money to make it to my next paycheck. As a matter of fact, if you count this website, my addiction has [...]
A few weeks back, I wrote about a great Thai place, Bangkok Thai, and I mentioned how much I liked their Pad Thai. I figured letting people know that a Thai restaurant makes really good Pad Thai would be a helpful bellwether for the rest of the menu. I am such an uncultured rube: [...]
I’m sure this is another one of those posts that is going to piss people off, but I had a horrible meal at Tommy’s in Coventry, and I wasn’t real impressed with their food. Tommy’s is a Cleveland favorite (OMG! Rachel Ray luvs that place!), especially for vegetarian hippies as much of the menu [...]
Crispy crunchy little bits of spicy pork. Life doesn’t get much better than that. Now traditionally pork carnitas is made by cooking pieces of pork butt or ham in copious amounts of it’s own fat for hours until the meat is perfectly tender. Then, the meat is removed and the temperature of the oil is [...]
Our television stations and radio waves are filled all day long by people complaining about all the great injustices in this world: slavery, child prostitution, world hunger and even Global Warming. However, not a word is mentioned about the greatest injustice faced by human kind: grocery store guacamole. Have you ever had this shit? [...]
I really like Thai food and there are a ton of good Thai restaurants in Cleveland, but I hate they almost all of them try to make Thai food something fancy and upscale. Do I really need a garnish man? Let my plate be with just the stuff I can eat. I want Thai street [...]
In the very near future we may have a traveling correspondent bringing you restaurant reviews from around the world (mostly just North Dakota though), but I thought until then I would tide you over with some review for a couple joints I ate at while traveling over the last few weeks.
