Well this is the big one folks! The last Feast Frenzy I'll be cooking and posting from Los Angeles, CA. My kitchen is very tiny here, but it's also been pretty damn mighty too. I'll miss it. Goodbye little kitchen.

ALL NEW from Feast Frenzy @ The Horror Food Network!

5-PEPPER-SAUCE ROTINI PASTA
With GRILLED CHICKEN, TURKEY SAUSAGE & SHRIMP!

Now this is a feast to get frenzied over!  First prepare 100% whole grain wheat Rotini pasta (boil for 10 minutes until al dente, then strain and return to pan).  Next prepare the 5-Pepper-Sauce.  In a large saucepan, pour one 24oz can of Hunt’s Premium Pasta Sauce (No Salt Added)––just .99¢ at the .99¢ Only Store––add one 14.5oz can of (no salt added) diced tomatoes and one 8oz can of (no salt added) tomato sauce.  Next very-finely dice 2 Habanero peppers, 2 large Jalapeno peppers, and 3 Serrano peppers and stir into sauce.  Chop yellow & red bell peppers and stir into sauce until sauce is chunky with them.  Spice to taste with oregano, basil, and garlic powder.  Bring all to a boil and simmer for 15 minutes.

Cut 2 small chicken breasts into strips and place on the grill (NuWave Oven) and spice with garlic powder & paprika––grill for 4 minutes.  Flip the chicken and spice other side, then add 2 large Jenny-O Hot Italian Turkey Sausages to the rack and grill for 5 minutes.  Flip the sausages and add 10-12 medium-large fresh shrimp (peeled with tails removed, and which have been marinating in lemon juice for 30 minutes), sprinkle with ground black pepper.  Grill all for another 6 minutes (until chicken is 175° & sausage is 165°).  Slice the turkey sausage and add to pasta in pan, stir in the 5-Pepper-Sauce until all is covered well, and heat until hot.  Spoon onto a dinner plate, add the grilled chicken around the side, then top with the grilled shrimp, 2 pepperoncinis, and sprinkle with shredded Parmesan cheese. 

Wow!  Soooooo tasty, sizzling hot and spicy!  You’ll have enough for a guest or two, or plenty of leftovers!

HAPPY (early) HALLOWEEN!

Soon I'll be back in Dallas and very near to this place.

Set to the amazing song "Bury My Lovely" by October Project, please enjoy some wonderful pictures I took of Mills Cemetery in a slideshow presentation. The cemetery is an eerie graveyard very near to the house where I grew up, and which is the resting place of the Smiley family who all died on May 9th, 1927. The cemetery and the Smiley grave are a place of haunted legend and the inspiration behind my short story SMILEYS' GRAVE and the adapted screenplay COLOR OF FLAME.

And good ol' PUZZLEMAN the clay maquette has been meticulously boxed up and then placed in another well padded box, with many FRAGILE! stickers all over it. Hope he makes it safely to Dallas. And if you haven't read the novel PUZZLEMAN, please do!

GRILLED TILAPIA SANDWICH & FRITOS!

OK, so this is ‘another’ second to last Feast Frenzy post––I’m still in need to use up perishable food before I leave town, and also needed something quick and easy after a long day of moving errands and prep.

I had 2 grilled Tilapia fillets leftover from my 10.25.16 post (please see said post for grilling instructions), so I simply placed them on my NuWave Oven and warmed them for 4 minutes.  When finished, I laid on extra sharp Cheddar cheese and heated an additional 1 minute to let the cheese melt.  While the fillets were heating, I toasted 2 slices of Nature’s Harvest 40-Calorie Multi-grain bread, then spread on Jalapeno mustard, sliced the bread into halves and layered on a bed of field greens & spinach, then 2 sliced tomatoes (sprinkled with garlic powder & 50/50 Lite salt) on each bottom half.  Next, I placed one fillet on each half (sprinkled with fresh ground black pepper) and topped off with slices of white onion.  On the side: Lightly Salted Fritos, which are always outstanding!  Over all, a very, very delicious meal in minutes!

NEW!!! ZISI EMPORIUM FOR B-MOVIES reviews A CATCH IN TIME!  

"With [Tatiana Ospina's] whole future seemingly undone, the horrors of 1938 also converge on her.  World War II has yet to begin, but National Socialist horror is sweeping the globe in full force.  Colombia is far enough away to avoid all these horrors.  Wrong!  No more spoilers, but for a horrific tale with sensational literary motifs of the Nazi horror,  "A Catch In Time" is a novella you must read." ––Christopher Zisi, Zisi Emporium For B-Movies
