Another busy weekend filled with mud, friends, and mountain bikes came and went faster than I would have liked. This is our second time heading to the epic 12 hour Granogue race, but the first time really participating. Last year we had a killer view as we marshaled the ‘Tunnel of Love’ for a few…
This Tres Leches Cake is perfect. It’s a ruin your weight watchers plan binge eat half the cake with a fork for breakfast and hide the rest for later kind of good. Cinco de Mayo!! Cinco de Mayo is almost here and I am really really sad. But we’re finishing out the celebration on PtS…
These Mini Blueberry Donuts with Streusel topping are perfect for satisfying your donut craving, without leaving a cement weight in your gut. Let’s have a little chat about etiquette. Internet etiquette that is. Last week it was brought to my attention that one of my photos, along with the entire recipe was posted to a…
It’s a recap of 2012 by the numbers and my hard working and underpaid legion of analytically super-minds were able to wrangle data from the interwebs and piece together the top 10 most visited posts of 2012. So, according to the data: Thin Mint Trifles Buttermilk Blueberry Breakfast Cake Banana Bread in a Mug Slow Cooker Chicken Tacos…
Oh dear God. Brace yourselves. I wasn’t prepared or ready for it. I didn’t feel it coming on. I was pretty sure it wasn’t going to happen this year. Then as I was standing around waiting to get some images framed at the art store the other day, Christmas landed in my cart. (bet you…
Nothing is faster or easier than a stir fry. With some coconut milk and red curry paste, I might as well be in heaven. This is where it’s at. It’s Thanksgivings eve and the last thing I want to think about is turkey. I’m going to have piles of turkey and turkey leftovers tomorrow. So tonight all…
Don’t know about you, but I am in serious denial. Denial that Thanksgiving is next week. Denial that Christmas is like 39 days away. Denial that I won’t be able to try all the new recipes I had planned for you. Denial that my house needs a top to bottom scrubbing before anyone can set…
If you are anything at all like me, you are still trying to gather your pumpkins and figure out what your costume will be for the upcoming Halloween festivities. Yeah, I am the master and commander of having my stuff together. I may not have carved a pumpkin yet, but I can toss you some awesome Halloween themed recipes…
These quirky little Halloween cookies are perfect for those of us who are not crafty and can’t decorate for stuffing. Just use stencils found at your local craft store and a heavy coating of confectioners’ sugar to set a spooky snack tray. Whether you’re whipping up a spooky party, or just making fun Halloween sugar…
Let’s get real, have a little <3 to <3 shall we? My foodies, friends, and fellow bloggers, this one’s for you. Lately, things just haven’t been the same around here. I mentioned a few weeks ago that I was a little down on the whole blog thing and couldn’t figure out why. I am…
Maybe it’s because I have already spotted Halloween decorations in someones front yard and that stores are already decorating the aisles in red and green, but the upcoming fall cookbook releases have me scratching to write a letter to Santa. Or to at least do some serious hint dropping. So in order of my most anticipated cookbook…
Last week at Big Summer Pot Luck the topic of jealousy was brought up. How sometimes we cdan see another blog, a more successful person, a cuter house, or a perfect kitchen and that sometimes we can become jealous of these things. For me, I am jealous of those cute couples that work together in…
Today I set out to cross off a baked treat that has been on my list for quite some time. Then, while working out of the giant behemoth that is Baking Illustrated I got sucked into several other recipes that I have got to try. Baking Illustraited is amazing, not just for its tried…
Timing is everything, and I just happened to be in the right place at the right time to score myself a ticket to the third annual Big Summer Potluck. BSP3 is the kind of foodie event that is a little more grounded from the usual food events and you aren’t going to find forums on…
For reasons unknown to me, I woke up and decided to cut the soda habit on Saturday morning. We can call this a quarter life crisis or something, but it’s time to make some changes. I allowed myself one Pepsi on Saturday while at work and haven’t had once since. I’m staying strong. Pray for…
Clearly my attention span rivals that of my cat because there was much more to yesterdays post that I completely forgot about until later in the day… Yesterday, I joked about celebrating my 200th decline over at Foodgawker, but really I was just poking fun. I have long since gotten over the sting of yet another decline…
This whole week is about bringing the family around the dinner table with fast delicious meals packed with flavors kids will want to try. The hook? They are all paired up with a little of that Disney magic. One of the biggest struggles for a lot of parents is getting kids to try new…
The boys are back after a long hiatus for some real deal cheese steak lovin. They are taking it home to Tony Luke’s and Jim’s this week to see who can bring the beef and wiz in these two landmark Philly steak shops. So get your appetite ready and let’s see who can be called the champ –…
Let’s get a little sassy today. Not sure what came over me, but this post is full on pink, girly, and packed with flavor. The moment I knew I wanted to make this spunky little milkshakes I was envisioning a great Valentine’s Day post…. Well, obviously missed that opportunity. Boys, turn away, and girls, let’s get girly! Pull…
Do you ever have those ridiculously stupid conversations with your partner where you end up annoyed just because? They often go like this, “Hey Babe, can you do this for me?” “No, I’m busy.” “Whatcha’ doing?” “I don’t know.” …. Please tell me we are not alone… So I huff off before early morning lack of caffeine and irritation sets in…
Change is in the air. Spring is right around the corner and with the forecast showing my days in the 60s – in February – Mother Nature and I may be in serious need of a heart to heart. I am all about warm weather. I love gardening, mountain biking, and a great breeze through the…
Honey oat bread is hearty sandwich bread, and perfect for toasting. The outer crust is rich and sweet, with a tender crumb inside. Since I had yesterday to be all publicly pouty and I’m not one to stay down in the dumps very long, lets kick today off with some awesomeness. First, that honey oat bread recipe below….
I know, your thinking you just read this post. But you didn’t. That last round up was trusty old google letting me in on my most clicked, my popular and most beloved posts from 2011. What I didn’t talk about was MY most beloved posts from 2011. Sure, the last one’s made the fans happy,…
Spinach artichoke dip is a snack dip that everyone loves. This Olive Garden copy cat recipe will have you staying home rather than eating out to get your fill of it! I warned you, and it happened – the evil Olive Garden across the street is open for business. I am not to be trusted. The idea of…
The great cheese steak debate continues this week, in my home state of Delaware, where two small shops go head to head. You won’t find me driving to Philly for just a cheese steak, I have hoagie shops here I like to visit. I have never tried either of these shops out, but after three…
Bread baking should be something we all strive to become good at. After all, bread is one of the most basic of foods, and has been for thousands of years. We haven’t had a good old fashioned book review on the site since summer and when Abrams publishing asked me if I would like to check out…
Citrus wine poached pears are a fancy looking dessert that are super easy to make! Bursting with orange flavor and warm fall spices, these wine poached pears scream “fall has arrived”! Wait, did Victoria Secret just call me a slut? If you were driving and saw a license plate that read ” <3 SLT “, what…
Celebrating Oktoberfest doesn’t have to be all about the German beer. Especially when German Sauerbraten and Spätzle are ready to celebrate Oktoberfest right along with you! Oktoberfest is this weekend and along with Germans, brats, and beer, I wanted to have a little something something for celebrating Oktoberfest with here at Pass the Sushi. So, I grabbed…
French dip sandwiches are the perfect food to kick off “Man Food Week”! Father’s Day is next Sunday, and to honor the men in our lives, I decided to do a whole week dedicated to “Man Food”. Personally, I don’t believe in ‘man food’ or ‘woman food’ because I’ll pick a rare stake over a cupcake…
Cranberry white chocolate cookies are sweet and chewy white chocolate cookies, with a tart-sweet bite from dried cranberries. These cookies have magic powers. Not only are they flat out delicious but they give their baker the power of bravery and will make the person the baker gives them to fall madly in love with them….
Pork stir fry is a common, easy, weeknight meal, but this recipe kicks it up with the addition of a spicy black pepper sauce. My last trip to Trader Joe’s brought home several new jarred sauces that I have been really anxious to try. The ingredients on the back had me excited. They appeared more…
Rosemary Baked French Fries. Forget the frying. These baked French fries are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, sprinkled with fresh rosemary and sea salt. The perfect side dish. My cat is a foodie. He loves vegetables. Snap the end of asparagus or green beans, he comes running. Shuck corn, he’s at your feet. Peel…
Homemade ravioli isn’t difficult to make. Just roll up your sleeves and prepare to get dusted with flour. It’s fun to make and delicious to eat! Today was my day off and, much like that lady on the food network who seems really mean, I spent it cooking (minus the film crew and culinary prestige…
Baked salmon is a quick, easy, and healthy dinner. In this recipe, the salmon is coated with fresh dill and rosemary seasoned breadcrumbs, giving it tons of flavor. Is it just me or has the fish at the market been an epic fail lately? I generally believe in buying fish from a fish market and…
Teriyaki beef stir fry is a delicious dinner that cooks up so quickly, it won’t heat up your kitchen while you’re cooking it. This is a good thing on an exceptionally hot day. I’m pretty sure it was hotter then the surface of the sun on Thursday when my BF’s mom and I went out plant…
Oh wait, we don’t have a steamer… Most kitchens have an oven and a stove top. The kitchen I am currently doing most of my food fiddling in doesn’t. Not that it doesn’t. There is a space being occupied by an oven, but it doesn’t bake. There’s a stove top on the top of the…
