About Cabernet & Chaos 🍷🔥
Cheers!This corner of The Hollow Quill is for the women who cook with garlic measured by the heart, pour wine without checking the ounces, and somehow turn weeknight dinners into full emotional events.
Here you’ll find cozy recipes, chaotic kitchen commentary, wine pairings, family-inspired comfort meals, date-night dishes, holiday spreads, and the kind of food that tastes even better eaten standing over the stove at midnight.
Cabernet & Chaos isn’t about perfection.
It’s about flavor.
Memory.
Indulgence.
Laughter.
And occasionally threatening to throw the wooden spoon across the kitchen while sipping Cabernet.
So pour a glass, loosen the waistband, and stay awhile.
Things are getting deliciously chaotic around here. 🍝🍷
My Interpretation of My Mother’s Roast Pork, Pernil
“Within the last year I was visiting Florida and vividly remember the look on her face when I threw away an empanada I only took one bite out of. Her reaction -
“I’ve never saw a whole empanada in my garbage can before.” Disdain filled her words, and if looks could kill.
It’s not my fault, I have hot girl belly issues. I CANNOT have tomato sauce in every single dish I eat. Hence, I offended my mother in the worst way ever — by insulting her food.
The worst kind of offense to a Puerto Rican woman…”

“If I wasn’t lactose and almost positive I’d shit my pants—I would drink this in a heart beat .”💕
