Book Review: My Drunk Kitchen by Hannah Hart

Though I admit to not being all that well-versed in “My Drunk Kitchen” the video series, I still wanted to see how Hannah Hart’s humor translated into book form. I might have aged out of some of this life advice, but her enthusiasm and love of puns still won me over.

Last week my brain imagined a sandwich so amazing that I need to share it with the world: the Pulled Beef, Caramelized Onion, and Gorgonzola Cheese Sandwich! (OK, so the title needs some […]

Best Hangover Sandwiches

The title says it all. Medically speaking, there’s no “cure” for a hangover, but everyone knows a heavy dose of salt and carbs somehow works wonders by settling upset stomachs and pounding heads. Yeah, you could just go to the McDonald’s drive-thru and order a McMuffin, extra grease, but where’s the fun in that? Plus, […]
