If there’s one thing I’ve learned about mushrooms lately, it’s that they’re super versatile and really easy to use when you want to swap them for something less healthy and filling. For the purposes of swapability, I would say my favorite mushroom is the Portabella. They’re thick, hearty, and really fill you up. After much searching and recipe combining, I found an awesome stuffed Portabella recipe that I think is a great alternative to pizza. Yes, you heard me right… the following Portabella mushroom recipe can replace homemade pizza. I am definitely not a chef,...

NEENER. NEENER. NEENER. While I’m not normally one to rub things in people’s faces, I must say this little bit of news makes me want to get all up in someone’s grill with my finger sharply pointed at their face and taunt them about how much better my big city is than theirs. Businessweek.com used Bloomberg Rankings to evaluate and compare the country’s 100 largest cities, taking into consideration recreational activities, economic health, air quality, safety, education and crime. Noting the City By The Bay’s cultural centers, restaurants, nightlife,...

Holy effin’ shizz, you guys! It’s been three months since my last post!! I would say it’s unacceptable, but I’ve been going through crazy life happenings that have kept me away from my blog. That being said, I’m not going to make any crazy promises about being back full-time, but I can say that I’m back at least part-time. I can sense you’re just dying to know what I’ve been up to, so in a nutshell here ya go….. *I’ve returned to college (twelve years after I dropped out) and I am currently studying to earn my bachelors...

Here’s the deal… I’m really excited to see Magic Mike, but I’m also a bit conflicted about it. On the one hand, there’s the forever-sexy Matthew McConaughey for whom my heart has an unwavering pitter-pat. Not to mention, the tight body and awesome dancing skills of hotty Channing Tatum. And of course all the other guys who I don’t really care about but will enjoy looking at nonetheless. But on the other hand, the movie clearly has a romantic story undertone; something I am not necessarily a fan of. There’s nothing wrong with romance in a movie per say – I just...

First Conan and now Ann Curry; I guess the head honchos over at NBC don’t see a need for sensitivity and tact when giving an employee the shaft. And they don’t learn from history very well, either. Ann Curry’s messy exit suggests that despite NBC’s new regime the new crew has learned nothing from the old crew and the ghost of Conan O’Brien. Once again, a prominent piece of talent – this time Curry – was left hanging out to dry, embarrassing the network, angering dedicated viewers and rewarding a loyal employee with an undignified escort to the curb. In...

Dear Amanda Bynes: You are a flaming idiot and denial ain’t just a river in Egypt. Just so ya know. As you may recall, actress Amanda Bynes, 26, was arrested back on April 6th after being pulled over in West Hollywood at 3:00am on allegations of using her BMW to sideswipe a cop car while attempting to turn right; she was believed to be drunk at the time. Bynes refused to take a Breathalyzer or drug trust at the scene, thus adding to the suspicion of intoxication by authorities (that move alone could result in a year’s suspension of her driving privileges). On June 5th, Amanda...
