Recipes and food adventures with Adam Roberts

  • See SIDEWAYS, Drink Wine

    Uncategorized

    |

    November 21, 2004

    A few weeks ago I received an e-mail from Fox Searchlight Pictures asking if I would promote “Sideways” on my site. All my integrity as a foodblogger was called into question. Would I really become a shill for the studio system, compromising everything I hold near and dear? Would I take another fat check like…

  • Lisa’a Almost-Birthday Non-Birthday Celebration

    Uncategorized

    |

    November 21, 2004

    Lisa’s birthday is on Wednesday (the 24th) and she doesn’t want celebration.”I don’t want celebration!” she’s repeatedly said.This self-effacement doesn’t suit me well. Birthdays are times for revelry and much much self-promotion. (See my birthweek 2004 category). I found Lisa’s non-birthday birthday stance to be quite infuriating.The twist of it is that we’ll all by…

  • Mofoblogging Apologies

    November 21, 2004

    Sorry for my mofoblogging rampage yesterday. It’s just really fun to post pictures directly to the site when I’m out and about. I’ll try to reserve such posts for meaningful things in the future–not pigeons, burritos and Lisa with cereal.

    November 20, 2004

    So as you can see from the post below, I’ve figured out how to blog from my mobile phone. It’s called moblogging and perhaps I can be NYC’s first food moblogger. (I don’t see anyone else doing this?) I’ll be a mofoblogger (mobile food blogger). Mofoblogging shall commence tomorrow!

  • Britney and I Like McDonalds

    November 19, 2004

    I completely just stole this picture so if someone feels robbed let me know and I’ll take it down:For the record, it’s stolen from here found by visiting here.Anyway, this post isn’t about that picture. It’s about McDonalds.Now correct me if I’m wrong, but I think Julia Child was a fan of McDonald’s french fries.…

  • The Return of the Thursday Night Dinner Song: “I’ll Never Try To Cook Again”

    Uncategorized

    |

    November 19, 2004

    This is a lame return, I must admit. It’s one of my favorite songs. But two factors fail us:(1) I use the verb “try” which is weak when compared to the original “fall.” “Try” isn’t really active. I should’ve “tried” something better.(2) The recording skips in important places. I will paste the lyrics in the…
