Hi, my name is Brant and let me tell you a bit about Masshole Fare. This site is dedicated to making wonderful food. I enjoy taking wonderful recipes, and making them just a tad bit more decadent, rich, or flavorful. If you have a favorite recipe that you’d like me to try to uplevel – let me know! I love challenges, and my experience has taught me that you can always make something a little better. It’s in the margins (quote loosely taken from Boston Celtics coach Joe Mazzula).
I live in California, where my enjoyment in food is only surpassed by a couple of things, wine and Boston sports (Yes, I’m a true Masshole!). What is a Masshole, you ask? Well, in my book, it’s someone very proud to be from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. I’m sure you will get a more colorful answer from those that are not Massholes! A quick search of the internet will provide a bit more interesting and perhaps negative view of the term:
- Wikipedia: (Canada, US, derogatory, slang) A contemptible or obnoxious person from Massachusetts.
- Urban Dictionary: the loudmouth, arrogant jerks living in Massachusetts
- And – my favorite of all definitions: 19 Signs You Are Clearly a Masshole: Wearing a nice warm hoodie with a pair of shorts…probably in the winter – I’m guilty – I wear shorts year round, even when I visit family at New Year in New England.
Over time, I will make this About Masshole Fare a little bit more full featured. For now, that’s all you get! Feel free to reach out to me if you have questions/comments, or anything else!
