Diva Cooking 101

Divas cook gorgeous things that are fabulous enough to share with friends and family. They just don't cook much. Every diva needs a few, easy signature dishes to get by. Are you a diva cook?

Divas cook while listening to Billie Holiday, Muddy Waters, or the Rolling Stones.

Divas cook while sipping Champagne, Chardonnay, or a martini.

Divas cook with a feather boa draped around their shoulders.

While cooking, divas nibble gin-soaked olives or Champagne-saturated strawberries.

Divas cook while wearing an apron that says, "Tomorrow is another Chardonnay."

A diva's favorite breakfast is last night's appetizers.

Divas don't stress over particular amounts in any recipe. Glugs, plops, and handfuls are accurate enough.

Divas can cook with boas because diva recipes do not require many steps. Still, the food is fabulous.

Chicago Hot Dogs


While I'm not a huge fan of hot dogs in general, I will eat a good one.  I like Hebrew National, Pearls, and Nathan's.  Recently I heard that President Obama has a thing for Chicago dogs, and I decided to check it out.  The last time I heard a president like grilled food, it was about Bill Clinton who liked his hamburgers with onions that had been marinating in Balsamic Vinegar.  I was not led astray.  This was a great tip. 

Yet I was skeptical about a hot dog with all those vegetables.  Boy, have I been missing out!  This has been delicious and filling in a good way.  Also, I did not know and still don't know what sport peppers are.  I substituted pepperoncini peppers.  Absolutely fabulous.
