Giveaway: Celebrity-Chef Style “Sam-I-Am” (and $25)

Has anyone ever been forced to actually try Green Eggs and Ham — either as a dare, or while being pinned down by your bully big brother? Or, just because you were curious?

CONGRATS TO Theresa! She was chosen as the winner, and her comment was: I am a long time super fan of Iron Chef (insomniac) I used to watch the original series before it come here to Iron Chef America. I am actually watching it now… In our family, I’m the griller. It’s the way we [...]

HER Giveaway: Iron Chef Michael Symon’s Celebrating the Holidays with Flavor

CONGRATS TO Michelle! She was chosen as the winner, and her comment was: I’d absolutely LOVE to win this set. First of all, who doesn’t love Michael Symon. My husband is the ultimate pork lover. I mean, come on, he’s got 2 websites and several blogs that deem him the Ultimate bacon lover. He’s even [...]

He Said: “Here’s To You, Kid”

Come on!! The 3rd video of our Pyrex Series threw two giant softballs my way, both of which were gobbled up by the wife (the latest video can be found by clicking HERE): With all of the footage they had to use as the “frozen frame” on the main page, why did they have to [...]

She Said: “Here’s To You, Kid”

Ever roll your eyes at your spouse kids when you seemingly think they’re not looking? This happens a few times a week in our house, especially ever since we won the Pyrex contest. You would think I was Prince Diana and Dave was some sort of King (insert snort here). Or that I was Taylor [...]

He Said: “If I Could Turn Back Time”

Wow…if I had a chance to talk to my wife when she was 16. What would I say? Actually, if I had the chance to turn back the clock and spend even just 15 minutes with her, I’m pretty sure that SO MANY questions I have would just “go away.” Unfortunately, I don’t think she’s [...]

She Said: “If I Could Turn Back Time”

How many of you Tweet? You know, like on Twitter? Laugh as you may… I know most of you think I’m a total loser for being on Twitter (my IRL friends, anyway). IRL? What the hell does that mean? “In Real Life”, get it? I know my blogging buds can relate to this gap in [...]

He Said: “Rounding the Corner”

Halfway there! Now that we’re through 2 of the 4 shows from the Pyrex’s “Hottest Culinary Couple in America” Competition, let’s review some of the feelings over the past 6 weeks: The shock of my circle of friends that I won anything with the letters “hot” in it….unless you were talking about “America’s Funnist PHOTo of a [...]

She Said: “Rounding the Corner”

So, we’re 1/2 way through the self-promotion annoyances. Apologies. We’re getting increasingly comfortable in front of the camera (a few glasses of wine doesn’t hurt), and getting more less annoyed at each other. Our 2nd (of 4) videos for our online cooking series, c/o Pyrexware is live today on Pyrex’s Channel on YouTube: America’s Hottest [...]

Photography Review & Deal; Just in Time for Holiday Cards, Raleigh/Wake Forest !!

So, I’m sort of a photo snob. I dream of lenses while other’s dream of sex. I love capturing my little ones in their element. Even though Dave and I aren’t swapping gifts this Christmas, and even though I already have a high caliber, expensive lens for my SLR, I want an even BETTER lens. [...]
