Real Name:

Misty Nuckolls

Best meal I ever ate:

A cream cheese and jalapeno pizza about three hours after giving birth to my daughter. Context is *everything*.

My current drink of choice:

Filthy, filthy martinis

I really wish I could:

Invent taste-o-vision so watching Food Network wouldn't be so painfully frustrating.

My "Go-to" dinner party dish:

coq au vin--tasty, simple, and quite impressive to those who've never eaten it before.

My favorite comfort food:

My mother-in-law's wild mushroom cream soup---enough butter and other dairy fats to send a Chicago Bears fan into cardiac arrest

My top 5 favorite restaurants:

Commander's Palace, New Orleans; Pachamamma's, Lawrence KS, Chubby's Diner KC MO, Teller's, Lawrence KS, Zen Zero, Lawrence KS

My most tattered cookbooks:

"The Italian Cooking Encyclopedia". My husband wore that out back when he was courting me . . .
