RECIPES FOR BUSY DADS: FRESH TAKE HITS THE ROAD

by Troy Pattee

 Ever feel like you’re missing out while someone else has all the fun? Well, to make sure everyone has a chance to give Fresh Take a try, my friends at Kraft are touring the country and coming to a shopping center near you as part of the Fresh Possibilities Tour. It’s not that I’m not […]

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN SO EXCITED THAT…

by Troy Pattee

Sometimes a person’s reaction seems disproportionate to the act or item being reacted to. This is the animal version of that. It reminds me of the time our sugar-obsessed 5-year old woke up before everyone else one Saturday morning. He got into the pantry and drank an entire 28-ounce bottle of Aunt Jemima pancake syrup […]

SAVORY STUFFED CREPES RECIPE + $100 GIVEAWAY

by Troy Pattee

  I‘ve been channeling my inner Julia Child a bit lately. It was probably triggered by the latest package I received from Kraft; it was packed to the brim with an assortment of Kraft Natural Shredded Cheese. First, I made my famous grilled cheese (famous in our tri-block neighborhood, at least). Then I got caught […]

MY INSIDE LOOK AT KRAFT KITCHENS

by Troy Pattee

I was there as part of a group with the  Global Coalition Against Child Pneumonia. Yes, you read that correctly–PNEUMONIA. Not exactly the first thing that comes to mind when you think of Africa, […]

MY FAMILY THINKS I’M A MASTER CHEF–KRAFT CHEESE

by Troy Pattee

Life in our kitchen has been a little more interesting lately. It’s not that I’ve ever been a bad cook, I probably just lacked a little imagination. But lately my meal making has been experiencing somewhat of a renaissance. Instead of my regular mac and cheese, last Monday I made Four Cheese Macaroni. My plain baked fish […]

THE RITE OF PASSAGE THAT IS LYING TO YOUR PARENTS

by Troy Pattee

Have you ever told a lie? Me either. My 10-year old has been playing around on his mom’s computer a bit while she’s away on a trip. I’ve got a pretty good kid filter on our computers, but I still jump into the room unexpectedly now and then just to keep him honest. So imagine […]

“BRADYING” IS THE NEW “TEBOWING”

by Troy Pattee

It’s always healthy to be able to laugh at yourself. And if that’s not possible, the next best thing is to laugh at someone else. First it was Tim Tebow. Now it’s Tom Brady. Either way, you have to admit the Interwebz has a great sense of humor.  Share this:
