It’s beginning to feel like the television show Tosh.O over here. For each season he introduces his new wardrobe theme. This season it’s the Season of Brad where he dresses like a different character from a different movie of Brad Pitt’s. From the obvious to the obscure it’s always a fun suspense to see what new theme…

Strawberry Semifreddo Ice Cream
I don’t pamper myself often (with the exception of spending a little more money on really good food and treats like this strawberry semifreddo ice cream, but of course).

Copycat Pilsbury Sugar Cookies (GF/V)

Baked Shiitake “Shrimp”
Maybe it’s the pairing of Baked Shiitake “Shrimp” dipped liberally into a tart cocktail sauce that makes this meal so delicious. Then again it’s probably the fact that tastes like it’s fried. I have a weak spot for fried foods. As good as it (fried anything) tastes in my opinion, I really have to watch what I…
