I Cooked Up Some Pepperoni and Cheese One-Pot Pasta

“This post is part of a social shopper marketing insight campaign with Pollinate Media Group® and Barilla®, but all my opinions are my own. #pmedia #OnePotPasta http://my-disclosur.es/OBsstV” Believe it or not, I can’t cook rice. To be more specific, I’m no longer allowed to make rice. Yeah, I’ve tried cooking rice (and other food too, beyond boiled water) in the past and for the most part, it’s ended in disaster. Thankfully, I’ve never burned the house …

My Insanely Epic Quest for Iron Maiden’s Trooper Beer Has Ended

by Andrew Kardon

I’m a trooper. That’s about the most perfect word to describe my day-long adventure yesterday here in Stafford, England.

I Am So All-In on Applebee’s New Line of Burgers

by Andrew Kardon

Disclosure: I have partnered with Life of Dad and Applebee’s for this promotion. I have a friend name Mike. He was my first roommate after college. Now, besides being the hairiest person on the planet (that’s a post for another day), one thing about him has always stuck with me: Mike doesn’t like food in his food.
