Every occasion is the right occasion for a warm, gooey, cheesy dip.

Dublin Lawyer (Shrimp in Irish Whiskey Cream Sauce)

March 8, 2026 by The Runaway Spoon 1 Comment

I am reposting an old St. Patrick's Day recipe that's become a firm favorite on the site throughout the year - for good reason! I absolutely discovered this dish because of the name.

And I have made it many times, for family and friends. But I haven’t posted it before, because my photography skills just don’t do it justice. Some foods, like casseroles, are just hard to … [Read more...] about Street Corn Chicken Enchiladas

Crazy Rich Double Chocolate Toffee Brownies

I love cooking and I love writing recipes. I do. But even I lose my mojo. Sometimes when asked to bring something along to a party or an event, I just can’t muster a full day in the kitchen.

The problem is, when a recipe writer shows up and everyone wants to know what you brought and the … [Read more...] about Crazy Rich Double Chocolate Toffee Brownies

I'm P.C. I think I am like most people. Somewhere in the middle between food snob and food schlub. Just being in the kitchen makes me happy. I live, mostly in my kitchen, in my hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
