Team Omnomicon wishes you a subdued but dignified new year from our respective armchairs. Also, happy new year from this chair. Cheers! Aleta & Dano (obo that chair)
I present to you: that eleventh hour, absolutely perfect finishing touch to your Halloween spread. Once you’ve gone through caramel apples & popcorn balls, pumpkin bread/cookies/cupcakes/wh...
So about a lifetime ago (and to be fair, a hamster lifetime) I posted about how to buy herbs and spices in bulk because it’s way the hell more affordable. If you’ve ever bought your spice...
Welcome, October! People are already handing out free candy, and won’t stop until next year. And hey, why not? Bikinis are at least nine months away (assuming it stops snowing before May gets h...
I started my first professional job three days after turning 22, a little naive, a little rough around the edges, not even technically having even graduated college, so the professional workplace was...
Since it’s that season, Dano, Patrick & I all moseyed on down to the ice cream stand one recent Friday evening. We arrived and there were families, a demographic with whom I have little in...
I sent this list to the grocery store with a really helpful dude and this is how he wrote it down. berries 1 per milk gallon frosted mini wheat big bite ham slices not from deli organic cinnamon roll...
Q: What happens when you instruct your dental hygienist little sister and an Army trained cook to figure out how to make a ravioli casserole? A: Magic. Happens.
Was totally going to post all the pictures I got of the Recipe Round-Robin tastetests, and then I published before I remembered that I was going to do that. So uh, whoops. In order to save myself som...
Let’s talk pancakes. Finally. It’s been a spectacularly shitty couple weeks and I’d like nothing more than to discuss this little contest thing we got going on… I was impresse...
They say you should be close to your wedding photographer, know their kids’ names, address them by their first name. Sadly, given that you are likely to only spend a couple hours with your phot...
I have my own new chat abbreviation, formally dedicated to all participating in the rrr: ssf, “sorry so flaky.” I was *supposed* to distribute recipes Friday, and I was *planning* on foll...
Everyone knows those people who rants and raves about their Italian/German/Czechoslovakian /Whatever grandmother, her incredible cooking, and the totally amazing recipes that have been handed down for...
On one of my thrifting excursions, I happened upon this bad lawrence for $3. Taken in by its chrome plated iron glory, I was all like “That thing is majorly diesel! Totally made to last forever...
Omnomicon’s premier recipe contest is finally back! While the holidays are rife with opportunities for a round-robin, I was busy and wasn’t entirely sure everyone else would follow throug...
Results are in: we have some well-equipped kitchens! I asked readers about their favourite underappreciated kitchen tools and got these results. Good, solid knives (37%) Some had brand, others noted ...
I currently have my fingers in many pies, and it feels awesome to be in the swing of things. I’m happiest when productive! There is a new food post (I know! Right?) that should be up on Sunday,...
The holidays are finally over. For the last two months you’ve put as much deliciously rich foods and mediocre cookie plates as can fit in your mouth at any one time. Upon returning to work, you...
I’ve seen a lot of bloggers who take affront to this comment, and I understand why. To the uninitiated, SLRs do all the heavy lifting and if you can just drop $500 on a camera body you can take...
Not as cool as the posse Andre has, but I set up an Etsy shop for all the vintage stuff I love so much but have no space for. I like to think the descriptions really carry my personality for me. I fe...
So I update my site after several months and I get one comment?? Clearly, Apollo is my only real internet friend. *tear* It’s cool, I dig it. Holidays, busy times, finals . . . whatever other c...
Part of the reason for my lapse in posting has to do with the whole rigamarole of planning something at least moderately unique and replete with a set of photographs. If this site had no photos, I...
While absence might make your lover’s heart fonder, I’m not so sure how it works with blogs. I’ve been especially internet-absent as of late, and in line with my apologetic nature, ...
So I got a little momentum on this project in, like, August or something, except I had some sore disappointments, all in a row, that kinda scared me off for another several months, apparently, and I ...
The mimosa. A delicious blend of fruit & alcohol that transforms even the most mediocre of brunches into an experience nothing short of magical. But alas, there are times where maybe perhaps a li...
Let’s get all healthy on your ass. I’m not really good at veggie-centric recipes, mostly because I think they’re very good all by themselves simply steamed or roasted or even fresh....
FACT: Omnomicon has lain dormant for some time. Months, even. To all concerned: everything’s fine and great! I’m not dead, and hey, I even had time to get all engaged and thinking about a...
