Are you ready for some football???????
I’m not. I’m Canadian and football really isn’t a big part of our “culture”. We don’t have Friday night football games in high school. I don’t know ANYONE who goes to football games. We’re a country of hockey lovers and to be honest I don’t think I’ve ever been […]
(From the NY Times)
I love Wednesday. I know it’s hump day but it’s so easy to get over the “hump” when all of the newspapers have their food sections! Out of habit I always check the NY Times Dining Section first. I love my weekly dose of Bittman. I enjoy […]
Let’s go right ahead and file this one under not-so-delicious. I mean, even the picture is wonky looking!
This one comes from The New York Times which tends to do pretty decent recipes. I can say with confidence I definitely had a hand in this one not turning out as great as […]
Believe it or not I made yet another Barefoot Contessa/Ina Garten recipe from . I know, ANOTHER one! I just can’t help myself, everything in that book looks and sounds delicious and for the most part has worked out that way. At the rate I’m going I will have made […]
I’m back from my little side trip to NYC and DC and I can’t help but write about my NYC eating experiences. I lived in NYC for 6 years (I moved back about a year and a half ago) so trips to NYC are tricky when it comes to food. There’s my desire to try […]
Hello all —
Sorry for my absence… I’m battling some sort of flu/cold combination and all I’ve been eating is chicken noodles soup out of the can (minus the chicken, noodles and vegetables). It hasn’t been that bad, mostly a fever and headache but cooking is not so much a priority as laying on my […]
I love granola. But here’s the thing, it can be bad for you. A lot of fat, a lot of sugar and not enough good stuff. Bear Naked makes a great granola but it’s too pricey for me and I always want to change one or two things about. This is where […]
With cooking there are hits and there are misses. Unfortunately this dish ended up squarely in the misses category.
Every month or two I log onto Epicurious and go through the recipes from the most recent issues of Bon Appetit and Gourmet and e-mail myself the ones I’d like to try […]
A few months ago I acquired a copy of . I’ve had a few Chinese cookbooks over the years but I’ve never thought that any of them really captured what I was looking for. I love greasy, Americanized Chinese food. I freely admit it, nothing to […]
Clearly the love affair with the Barefoot Contessa/ Ina Garten continues. Her cookbook is FANTASTIC! I kind of want to make every recipe in this book. At the rate that I’m going I will probably have completed the task by… Februrary. I’m only kind of kidding.
I didn’t […]
