Bringing My Work Home: Chili Cook Off Contest
I wish I could say we fussed and argued and cussed with each other. We could have been divas, bad tempered, whinny, snarky or clueless, but I have to say, there wasn't a Simon, Christina, Adam, Nicki or Britney among us....

Sweetbreads Anyone? – WARM BODIES
by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor Actually, I found out sweetbreads are not sauteed brains; but rather the thymus gland or pancreas of a calve. It’s still a disgusting proposition in terms of delicacies, unless of course, you happen to be a zombi, in which case, everything is good from the toes on up.

Missing Ingredients: MAMA
As the preview screening of Guillermo del Toro’s horror film Mama, came closer and closer, the more I was tempted to cancel my reservation out of fear. As previously mentioned, I’m too susceptible to supernatural movies. I think it’s because I believe that ANYTHING no matter how far fetched or out of this world, is possible. And this open-mindedness, combined with living alone, can really set my imagination working over-time. But to my relief and disappointment. MAMA isn’t very scary. It’s creepy, and at times disturbing, but it certainly doesn’t have that melancholy, haunting, can’t shake it feeling of The Orphanage, nor is it darkly sinister. The movie is based…
