This week, you should check out a great food blog, Ellen’s needless apology to Apple, and some new music from the Gorillaz.

Lately, the same child in me that lamented the idea of a buffalo burger has taken another look at the whole idea of eating meat.

A while ago, I attempted to write a series called “Must Read/See/Hear For Your Monday Morning,” and it didn’t last past a single entry. Part of the reason it didn’t do well is because I just put way too much content in the post, and if I’m going to do this more often, I should make it far easier to digest.

I learned something about Pyrex tonight. Extreme temperatures or stress can shatter and entire object made of tempered glass — you’re not supposed to use it on the stovetop or in the broiler.

I had been meaning to make a Filipino dessert called bibingka for quite a while. There are different kinds of bibingka, if I recall correctly, because it means “rice cake” and that can mean any number of things when it comes to Filipino cuisine.

Like always, the chicken adobo was a hit. Cooked it around an hour and fifteen minutes at 350° F. Mmm, doesn’t it look good?

My mother had some leftover uncooked chicken from dinner the other night, so I took that as an opportunity to make some chicken adobo. And an opportunity to take pictures of something I did so I could post about it!
