A new pizza place has come to town. It’s The Wedge Pizzeria on Western. There’s been a little buzz on account of the locally sourced ingredients, the brick oven in what used to be a salon, and the atypical/gourmet toppings. My waitress didn’t know the specifics of the local ingredients—just that when they get them, [...]

Von Trattoria

Last night Matt and I had a night on the town. We worked up an appetite after spending the day in a futile attempt to corral leaves. Today it looks as if we did nothing in the yard. After cleaning up, we headed downtown to Trattoria il Centro (we really need to branch out) to [...]
Berocks

Well, since the kitchen is in a state of flux (read: disaster) due to somestupidpeoplethatputwallpaperdirectlyonthedrywall (whew!), Tricia the Red hasn’t had time, nor the inclination, to do much in the kitchen. Last night we picked up a prepared hot meal from Harvestyme Bakery. It’s a Berocks, or a German sandwich with ground sirloin, Bavarian [...]
Back to Trattoria

We didn’t waste any time getting back to Trattoria. Matt and I had some time to waste yesterday, so we decided to go there for supper. After taking our order, the waiter brought some cannellini bean spread and placed a piece of focaccia on each of our plates. Soon he brought water and Anchor Steam [...]
Green martini, anyone?

Last night Matt and I attended Green Drinks, held at Trattoria il Centro in downtown OKC. The bartenders make a special lemon-basil martini. I daintily sipped (how else can you drink a martini?) it while discussing work, blogs, books, flooring, food, and swimming pools. The food was secondary to the good company and discussion, but [...]
Autumn and Eggs

Fall, leaves, fall; die, flowers, away; Lengthen night and shorten day; Every leaf speaks bliss to me, Fluttering from the autumn tree. –Emily Brontë (1818–48) We woke up this morning to AUTUMN! Steam was coming off the pool and it was a chilly 48˚! Marvelous. Matt and I had a GIS conference today, so we [...]
A perfect day for a picnic.

Early in the day it was pretty steamy, and then the sky turned gray and impending. Happily, by the time we got to the picnic, the weather was perfect. The Annual Slow Food Picnic is held at the Harn Homestead. $25/person is kinda steep for a picnic, but this is not a typical picnic. Local [...]
Surf and Turf

On a whim, Matt and I decided to go out to eat tonight. The left-hand lane was backed up (toward home), so we decided instead to turn right and pulled into the parking lot of the Steak and Catfish Diner at the corner of I35 and Waterloo. Before tonight I had said “nu-uh,” to Matt’s [...]
Irma’s got the cure

#31 of the 100 Oklahoma foods to try before you die: the NoName Burger at Irma’s Burger Shack Irma’s slogan is: “ain’t nothin’ a good burger and a cold beer can’t cure” I tested this out again tonight. And, yep, it’s still true. She’s opened a new location in the renovated Plaza Court building, but [...]
Got boba?

Matt and I had several errands to run after work, so we decided to go out for supper. Where to go? Well, there’s this little cafe I had noticed while running errands in town. It’s in a strip mall to the west of Target in Edmond. It stands out from the neighboring retail chains with [...]
