Start with this recipe from Two Peas and Their Pod. If you have chocolate chips and brown bananas, then you probably have all the ingredients for this banana bread. Follow all their instructions, especially the room temperature eggs, cooled melted butter, and kosher salt. I used light brown sugar because it’s what I had. Dark […]
In our third guest post, the indomitable Anne Delano Steinert brings you her quarantine crisp. If you missed our previous posts, you can still catch up with “Forlorn Kale, Dejected Eggplant” and “A Bad Sourdough Recipe.” I live in a two-person household — myself and a very picky eating nine year-old — so basically I’m […]
In our second guest post, I bring you Kalani Craig’s “bad sourdough recipe.” Read it for the jokes even if you aren’t planning to make sourdough. If you missed our first guest post from “MB,” you can still catch up with “Forlorn Kale, Dejected Eggplant.” All good sourdough recipes require three things: a starter (nursed […]
Dear Readers,Anjali finally wrote this recipe for her dreamy french toast. Enjoy.RSW I made French toast, and started writing this recipe about 14 years ago, back at the start of quarantine. And, back when the dark humor mixed with New Jersey sarcasm didn’t seem all that mean. Alas, it took me until today to finish […]
PSA DoubleTree by Hilton published their coveted chocolate chip cookie recipe. I repeat: DoubleTree published their chocolate chip cookie recipe. If you didn’t know this, then you haven’t been paying attention to the right corners of the internet. Devoted followers, I took one for the team. It was my responsibility to all of you to […]
It was Easter last Sunday, but I’ve had a bit of a back-blog (a blog backlog). While y’all were all out there roasting baby sheep or pig thighs or whatever you do to celebrate Christ’s resurrection (if you celebrate Christ’s resurrection), we were over here eating mac & cheese. Wingo Mac is a long-guarded secret […]
Did you try the delicious, fluffy buttermilk pancakes? Are you annoyed because you bought too much buttermilk and don’t know what else to do with it? Look no further than this buttermilk biscuit recipe. These were *good* but not *great.* It’s probably my fault. The butter wasn’t super cold. The honey butter glaze was magnifique. […]
I went to a . . . special . . . high school. Our mascot was the controversy-free Unicorn. UNI PRIDE! Yes, all you NC mascot buffs — I went to the North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics. Part of this story is that the state funds the school, so where budget cuts are […]
I noted in a previous post that my Saturday started with fluffy, delicious buttermilk pancakes and ended in fire. It’s time to explain. See, on Friday night Anjali and I went for a walk around the neighborhood. With classic Wingo “nothing-to-see-here” nonchalance, I picked up several large branches and carried them back home. There’s no […]
Welp, it’s day 2 of the delicious apple scones from yesteryear. How does time work in quarantine anyway? No one knows. It’s still a mystery. On Day 1, we ate the scones directly from the pan. We used plates, but it was just to maintain some semblance of civility. I was in day 4 of […]
