OK, I guess I’ve wanted to do this for over 40 years, so I can finally update my bucket list. When I was a teenager, my mother bought these little frozen thingies you could throw in an oven that were called “chicken pot pies”. Being recENTly turned on to all the hip lingo, I thought […]

Stoned Again…On Cookies
Make that the teeniest, weeniest little fragment of a cookie. I had been looking through the refrigerator drawer where I keep my baked goodies when I ran across a sealed foil package. I instantly knew what was in there, because I had acquired it at the 2010 Cannabis and Hemp Expo, but I had plenty […]
How To Blast Off With Nutella Firecrackers
Well, it’s been a little over a year since the last time I made weed firecrackers, and last night I thought I would try again. Except that the last time was quite a trip, and I sort of wanted to avoid that kind of drama, as I just wanted the effects and not the excitement. So […]
Old Hippie’s BBQ Lobster Tail With Cannabutter Recipe
If you like getting high from your munchies in style, this is for you. OK, so there I was, sitting around on a pretty good day for January (California…January…sunny and T-shirt weather!). I wanted to eat something interesting. And then I remembered I had put a lobster tail away for just such an occasion. Given […]
Instant Canna Creamer Recipe
Whoa. Once more I’m just a bit too high, and as usual there’s an edible involved. I read this awesome recipe posted by bkapps over on reddit.

I Scream, You Scream, We All Scream For Cannabis Ice Cream!
Well, it’s Friday, so I’ve survived yet another of Uncle Buck’s cooking classes, which are held on occasional Thursdays at Magnolia Wellness. This time, it didn’t involve cooking so much as waiting…waiting for the homemade ice cream to freeze! Sure, you can just drop some cannabis tincture on a cup or cone of ice cream, […]
Mom! Here’s How To Get Your Teenagers To Eat Their Vegetables!
…assuming that your teenagers have medical marijuana recommendations, of course 🙂 It all started, as many of these adventures do, with Uncle Buck and his cooking class at Magnolia Wellness in Orangevale (a suburb of Sacramento). This was a two-day cooking class focusing on making cannaoil and cannabutter, teaching people how to decarboxylate their cannabis […]
Uncle Buck’s Blueberry Smoothies Are A Trip!
And by trip, I mean I hit [13]. Yes, folks, I done it again. And by “it”, I mean I once again ventured forth to Magnolia Wellness for Uncle Buck’s by now surely world-famous cannabis cooking class. But this time he wasn’t cooking anything. He was making smoothies, using protein powder and blueberries and honey yogurt and […]

A while ago, I published my story of making and eating Nutella-based firecrackers (those wonderful little edibles you can make any time without making the kitchen smell like weed). Well, it turns out that MrDubious, the Ent who made an awesome illustrated guide to making Nutella firecrackers has now used my article to update his […]
