My stomach, an introduction.

Someday, when you are cruising the webs, you will find me.  You will find me and wonder, who is that fantastically splendid big eater?  Since I plan to be a postin' away, you'll have to dig to find this.  For those of you that worked so hard to find this: kudos, internet stalkers; now, get a day job.  (Damn, ya got me.  I would do this, too.  Pot calling kettle black.)

I'm an Iowa girl raised on beef traded for my dad's labor, pork straight from my farm (stop at the butcher first, obviously), veggies from a garden in part of our many acre living arrangement, canned somethingorothers from my grandmother's garden, unbelievable pickles canned by my great-grandma, etc.  Important note: My in-laws make a sick homemade salsa.  If you come over, don't expect to be given any, my husband might flip out.  You don't want no 260 pound, bald man flipping out.  My nice things might get broken.

What you should get from all of that...
I LOVE food.  I wake up thinking about breakfast, lunch, and dinner.  I cruise the pinternet for new recipes.  I borrow recipes from friends.  I experiment (most times pass, few times fail).  I ask my mom for her recipes, often more than once because I misplace the piece of paper I wrote it on.  I have piles of recipes saved in a folder that I pick through quite often to make something again.  I love having parties; it's an excuse to make more food for an audience.  And when I make something new, I don't consider the consequences.  It could taste like poop, but I go in thinking it is going to be fabulous, daahh-ling.  It sucks real bad when I don't like it.  All that effort for the trash can?  It doesn't deserve it!

A few other not so important facts: I love grammar, but this is a blog and mistakes will happen.  I don't like negative attention, I will delete, block, report, etc.  I don't like criticism; don't expect a response.  I love sharing good tasting food, expect a lot of that.  I am a crazy procrastinator, which means I may go weeks without posts and then fill one day with several.

Cheers to many upcoming fabulous foods.  Enjoy!

  1. I, Momsy, must be the first to comment! Yes, she is a procrastinator, but when she does post there will be some good things. We both like to experiment with food, so she may be getting some good ideas from the Momsy, as well. When she says she likes to cook for an audience, she is not kidding. There is so much food, I think she could feed an army. Ok, maybe she comes by that honestly, I do the same thing. I may have learned that from my mom. There's nothing worse than running out of food when you have people over. Well...maybe running out of toilet paper. :) Good blog, Randi, I'm anxiously waiting for more.

  2. I, the in-law, get to be the second to comment! So now I understand so much more about you, but why don't you like ham?? You know that if you come to our house to eat, you will almost always get some sort of pork product. And salsa. So I guess that is why you keep coming. Anyway, I've enjoyed the posts so far. Keep it coming.
