The Lord of the Fries: Beer 'n Brussels
http://thelordofthefries.blogspot.com/2008/05/beer-n-brussels.html
The Lord of the Fries. A food guide for those stranded in Iowa City. Thursday, May 1, 2008. It's logical, really. You have a beer or two — or a pyramid of them — and before you know it, hunger strikes. It was midnight, and all I could find was a bag of Brussels Sprouts rolling around in the crisper. It was clear what needed to be done. So after just a bit of slicing and braising and buttering, these gleaming morsels appeared. 1 large clove garlic, thinly sliced. Splash of olive oil. Nitty Gritty Iowa City.

The Lord of the Fries: Hyvee: More than just Frozen Pizzas
http://thelordofthefries.blogspot.com/2008/04/hyvee-more-than-just-frozen-pizzas.html
The Lord of the Fries. A food guide for those stranded in Iowa City. Wednesday, April 30, 2008. Hyvee: More than just Frozen Pizzas. As I've stated in previous posts, I'm picky about my Chinese (or Japanese) food. Hyvee should just stop selling their variety. No, it wasn't expensive (about $6 for two entrees, rice, and an egg roll), but the quality wasn't worth it. Verdict: Skip it. What would you like? The three piece meal," I respond. A quick note about the Waterfront Hyvee. A Morning Worthy of Muffins.
