Kitchenware is a girl’s best friend

I was never one of those girls who dreamed of her wedding as a kid or dreamed of being a princess. My versions of these typical dreams were, “Someday, I am going to be a college athlete,” or “Someday, I am going to own three Great Danes and I am going to name them obscure […]

Replace holiday eats with healthy options

After Valentine’s Day, life either gets better or goes back to normal — many people, like a particular Daily Trojan columnist, also outgrow their favorite pair of jeans after eating an impossible amount of chocolate. Yes, chocolate is said to be “good for you,” if it is dark chocolate — cures cancer and what not […]

Cooking with chocolate for Valentine’s Day

Well, here I am, a single girl on Valentine’s Day. Am I bothered by this fact? Not a bit. Being single is awesome when you’re in a relationship with your kitchen; your heart only becomes broken when you run out of your favorite extra virgin olive oil from Ravece Rotondela, Italy. To be truthful, I […]

No shortage of events for food lovers in Los Angeles

The second Annual LA Bacon Festival that kindly reminds patrons to “Get your Lipitor ready” took place this past Saturday at the Petersen Automotive Museum -— by the time I found out about it, I was too late to purchase tickets.

Weekends bring a couple of things — free time, sleep, relaxation, sports, parties and food. As a sports fan, I believe it’s imperative that the right food and drink be provided at sports […]

A cookie a day keeps your heart in place

Thank goodness Friday has arrived – treat yourself to something sugary. You  deserve it. I am an advocate of sweets; whether that includes ice cream, cupcakes, soufflés, pudding, fruit, macarons or cookies, I believe that everyone should allow himself or herself to have dessert. It’s the beginning of the year, so like myself, many people […]

Salads make for healthy alternative

Week three of classes and we are all still alive and kicking. Congratulations and Happy Wednesday, Trojans! I hope everyone is managing their time well and that their New Year’s diets are still intact — if not, I have a great recipe that might help you stay on track while still satisfying those stubborn cravings.

The don’ts of dating and dining

Traditional dating may be on its way out, but one of key element will never go out of vogue: the first dinner date. The saying, “You can get to a man’s heart through his stomach,” is, for the most part, true. But, gentlemen, that works for the ladies too. Because first impressions are everything, here […]

On being a proper “foodie”

Happy Wednesday and Happy New Year to my Trojan family! Before I begin this column, I would like to dedicate my writing to a friend and teammate who recently passed, Jon Walters. On that note, I digress. This semester, it is my pleasure to be the Daily Trojan food columnist where I hope to provide […]
