In the spirit of the season I present cooking with monkey a recipe site hosted by a stuffed “monkey” that could in fact be a teddy bear with an identity crisis (opposable thumbs being a necessity in the kitchen and what not). But I digress. The real magic of this site, aside from providing recipes for such advanced and complicated culinary delights as grilled cheese and rice crispy treats, is the fantastic writing. Be awed and amazed:
From Monkey’s instructions on how to make guacamole and nachos:
“i have chosen three nice soft avocados today. first, i thank the avocado for sacrificing itself for today’s snack then using a nice sharp knife i slice them down to the pit with a stoke reminiscent of a bold samurai warrior.”

“with my favorite mariachi cd playing, i gently stir the ingredients in time to the music until all the ingredients are evenly distributed but still distinct individuals in their own rights”
