Cooking For Men – The First Christmas (According to Roscoe)

There Were Always Christmas Trees Yes, pine trees were everywhere, even in Cave Man times, so it was really no trouble to get a Christmas Tree, even though there were no lots to go to (this was before anything was for sale, but just barely, because the sales gene was always there, but it remained [...]

It’s Turkey Time!

Roscoe’s Quick Tips for a Great Bird Olive oil, Worcestershire, and Cholula. That’s right, start with Roscoe’s Trinity. Mix it up in a bowl and lather it all over your bird (after you wash and pat dry, of course), and don’t forget the inside. Then you can season it, Roscoe recommends a mix of salt [...]

Cooking For Men – The First Thanksgiving (According to Roscoe)

Cave Men Had Lots To Be Thankful For Though you wouldn’t think it to look at them. They didn’t have much in the way of clothes, as fashion hadn’t been invented yet, though Cave Babes were making headway in that direction, if only to tell their Cave Dude they didn’t like what he was wearing [...]

Cooking For Men: The Cave Man Halloween

Cooking For Men – Cave Man’s Best Friend

There Were Always Dogs Of course there were. Cave Dudes, Cave Babes, Cave Kids, and Cave Dogs. The nuclear Cave Family. Except it wasn’t. This Was Before Pets It was also before table scraps (tables hadn’t been invented yet, so how could you have table scraps?). Even back then, dogs were pretty smart. They saw [...]

Cave Men Cried – Yet More Cooking For Men

Life Wasn’t Easy Cave Men were pretty macho guys. They had to be tough, what with all the dangerous animals around: Sabertooth Tigers, Woolly Mammoths, and they were always dodging that pesky T-Rex (they weren’t scared, but they weren’t stupid, either, we just think they were because they hadn’t invented college yet). There’s A First [...]
