Vittles in Venice
Venice was a great place to go, but I highly recommend spending two nights MAX there. Ideally one night and about half a day is plenty to see the entirety of Venice. It's an amazing city to see, but you could cover all of the neighborhoods (excluding the islands) in about a day. The museums are not the best and you will find yourself retracing your steps (it's literally a labyrinth).

I relocated from northwest Tennessee to lower Alabama a few years ago, and while the Gulf Coast does have the best seafood in the world, there is so much more to be found here than shrimp and grits! From New York style pizza to Thai, these are the places you simply must visit while enjoying your Gulf Coast vacation.

Dried Fish on My Dinner Plate
Dried fish, daing, tuyo, bulad—not one Filipino (even the well-off ones) would not recognise this food. Although considered as a poor man’s food, most Filipinos from all walks of life have had this on their tables.

Fried Egg Grilled Cheese and Pizza Soup
I'm Stef. I am not a certified chef. What you see is made at home. Yesterday, I decided to go with something a little different. I wasn't sure how it would turn out or if the egg would even stay in one place while flipping it.

Sugar Season
In Northern New Hampshire, seasons don’t last months, they last a few weeks at most. There’s deer season, turkey season, calving season, lamb season, the second month of January (February), and more important than all the rest (at least to me) is maple sugar season. Sugaring can last anywhere from a few days to 4 weeks, and run anywhere from late February to mid-April. For syrup sellers, a few days covers about a tank of gas, whereas a month-long season covers your property taxes and that trip somewhere warm and sandy that they’ve been eyeing for a few years. People call out of work, families gather, tall tales are told, and new ones are woven in the warmth, steam, and scent of the sugar house.

I Love You America… Especially Your Junk Food!
Thank god for American junk food! I've landed 29 days ago on the American continent and, goshh, do I go crazy for all this ridiculous awesome food! I know, I know, today in our society junk food is almost as taboo as saying Voldermort in Harry Potter. I'm even part of that community, you know, the super annoying community that wants to take care of its body, eat better and healthier so as to stay fit and die much older. That community that pushes you to exercise at least once a week - "I promise, try walking for 30 minutes each day, you'll love it and won't be able to stop" - yes, that community! Or at least, I used to be part of it back in Europe and then I got to the U.S.

A Long Piece About Mushrooms
This article is partially about foraging for and consuming wild mushrooms. Under no circumstances should this article convince you to consume any wild mushrooms without first seeking out the advice of an expert and using their help to positively identify any edible mushrooms you may pick. Mushrooms can and will kill you and if you have any doubt as to the species of mushroom you have collected, err on the side of caution and DO NOT CONSUME THEM. That being said, please enjoy this piece and happy hunting!

Food Survival: Pasta
The first series of articles will be called "Food Survival," specifically for helping those who may not know how to cook. The aim of these will be to give out the basics and slowly expand on them. As a teenager, I know many that when they move out, they'll be kind of screwed when it comes to cooking their own food; this was the inspiration for this series. So let's dive in to one of my favorite meals: pasta.

Low-Carb, Low-Calorie, and High-Protein Recipe Ideas
Hey humans, it's time for another recipe haul. I'm going to share a few of my recent favorite experiments along with their macros with you all. You all know that I preach that carbs are your friend, but because I'm on "operation-lose-ten-pounds" I've been tinkering around with the idea of cutting my carbs a bit and upping my protein intake for muscle building. So these meals will have less carbs, more protein, and be significantly lower in calories. I am also trying to make sure these meals are meal-prep friendly for those of you that need to make ahead. This means they should be easy to make large amounts of easy to store, and they should still taste good after they have been reheated!
