This past week Mitt Romney appeared out to prove all of the Utahns who are calling him a RINO (Republican in Name Only), that he is in fact a fiscal conservative as he called Biden's $1.9 trillion Covid Relief package, "a clunker". Romney pointed out how the United States is currently $23 trillion in debt, and that as interest rates begin to rise, there is no doubt that the … [Read more...]

Indian Cuisine North & South: Takeaway Meals at 2 Far Flung Indian Eateries
When I was a relatively broke graduate student living in New York City, I would treat myself, occasionally, to meals at the dirt-cheap Indian restaurants that lined East 6th Street in the East Village. Dinner with drinks could be had for seven bucks or so and I developed an addiction to searing hot and spicy Indian fare. Of course, Indian cuisine isn’t necessarily spicy; much … [Read more...]

Spicy Asian Rice Noodles
This is a super simple, spicy Asian noodle dish that is easy to make but packed with flavor. You could substitute egg/wheat noodles for the rice noodles, but I like using rice noodles in this recipe since they can just be soaked to soften; they don’t need to be cooked.

Valley of the Moon Pinot Blanc-Viognier
I really love wines made with Viognier, a grape varietal that lends gorgeous floral aromas and flavors to wine. Wines that have Viognier in them - either a lot or a little - typically offer up perfumed scents of fruits like honeysuckle, peach, tangerine, mango and apricot. Recently I came across a very nice wine that blends Viognier and Pinot Blanc grapes from Sonoma County: … [Read more...]
