Cooking with Vincent

In which I attempt to make dishes devilishly created by horror icon Vincent Price.

Cooking with Vincent: Quiche Lorraine

Lately I’ve been in a breakfast mood. Breakfast for breakfast, breakfast for lunch, and breakfast for dinner, so I decided to peek into Vincent Price’s cookbooks for not just a breakfast item, but an egg based dish, as Price starred in Batman as the villainous Egghead. Patrick and I decided upon quiche lorraine, something I…

Christmastime means it’s time for Christmas movies, and one of my favorites is Tim Burton’s Edward Scissorhands. A bizarre but heartwarming tale of where snow comes from, it also happens to star Vincent Price in one of his final roles, in which he plays an inventor. One of his inventions is a massive cookie making…

Last weekend I realized I hadn’t had a slice of pumpkin pie all autumn! Now, that isn’t to say I can’t eat pumpkin pie in winter (after all, quite a few Christmas songs mention pumpkin pie) but pumpkin is the flavor of fall! So over the weekend Patrick and I whipped up a pumpkin pie…

It’s the first Cooking with Vincent after our (partial) kitchen redo (which you can read more about here) and under the watchful eye of some smiling Jack o’Lanterns and flying witches, as I also decorated the kitchen a wee bit for Halloween. With it being fall, I can’t help but want to make food that…

Cooking with Vincent: Brown and White Cookies

March 19, 2020, 4 Comments on Cooking with Vincent: Brown and White Cookies

I’ve never been much of a chef…I didn’t grow up in a home that cooked very often, and so the kitchen and I have never been real good friends. I’ve been trying to change that recently, as well as work to reduce plastic waste in our home. I figured a really good way to keep…

Sometimes photos that @patrickarlt and I take neve Sometimes photos that @patrickarlt and I take never see the light of day. Every once in awhile I’ll throw one or two up here on Insta, but for the most part, the random sign or abandoned building I snap a picture of gets forgotten about because it never gets a dedicated blog post. Today that changes! Head over to the blog for a glimpse at some of the remnants, remains, and random snapshots of last year. 📷 Link in bio and stories.

The sun has set on another drive-in. We all knew @ The sun has set on another drive-in. We all knew @missiontikidrivein ‘s days were numbered. We got more time than we thought, but the unceremonious closure that occurred last night hurt. I found out about the closure too late to make it out there one more time. This drive-in got myself, many of my friends, and I’m sure many more, through some of the toughest parts of the pandemic. It was one of the few places we felt comfortable gathering at in the pre-vaccine days. We stood, 6-10 feet apart, masked, and were happy to be out and seeing those we loved and enjoying some literal good old fashioned entertainment. Thankfully there are a handful of other drive-ins near me to visit, but this highlights how important it is to support YOUR local drive-in. If you want a better understanding of the economics of running a drive-in I highly recommend @april_wright_1999 ‘s two documentaries on the subject.

It’s rare I go to the movies anymore unless it’s the drive-in or a private screening, but when I found out via @tinyteacupvintage that @thefridacinema was showing the 2001 masterpiece that is Josie and the Pussycats I knew I had to throw on my @superyakishop tee and go. Movie theater popcorn was missed as I wore my mask the whole time (sans this brief photo) but it was a thrill to see this on the big screen for the first time in over two decades. This movie was everything to me for years, and call me crazy, but this movie is subversive AF. It’s about being who you are, and I love that. It was also a delight to be around so many other amazing fans who truly appreciate this movie. Remember Dujour means family! And seatbelts!

2022 was simultaneously an amazing and a really sh 2022 was simultaneously an amazing and a really shitty year. Those with a uterus lost a lot, but we are putting up a good fight, and winning. But right now I want to focus on some of the good elements. Here are some highlights from this year. Finally blogging about Angels Flight, Route 66 adventures, a birthday spent at the legendary Canyon Country Store, seeing Orville Peck four times, Star Wars Celebration, reopening of Tail o the Pup, seeing Elton John at Dodger Stadium, and dining at one of Gram Parsons’ old haunts, the Copper Room. This was also the year of house projects, many of which we still have yet to share! Here is to 2023, where we keep fighting for our right to choose, staying sane, working on ourselves, and having fun.

Patrick and I decided this year was the year to move forward with a variety of house projects. We started with painting our dining room, and a custom TV cabinet, two bathroom paint jobs, a new wall later, we are now saying goodbye to our guest room. No, it’s not a nursery. I’m not pregnant. We are not having kids. It is becoming a home gym/library. Words cannot express how excited I am!
