Every once in a while I like to look at what my most popular posts are. I’m often surprised. To wrap up 2010 I figured I’d share with you the top 10 most popular recipes posts of the past year. These aren’t recipes that were posted this year but the most popular posts of the [...]
With a cookbook collection of more than 50 cookbooks I recently realized that I have to put the brakes on any further purchases. My latest strategy has been to “test drive” cookbooks on my wishlist from the library. One book that has been on my wishlist for a few months now is [...]
This week’s Barefoot Bloggers challenge comes courtesy of Karen of Shortbread. I was pretty indifferent when I saw the pick: Caesar Club Sandwich. I mean I love Caesar salads, but chicken? No bueno. And sandwiches can go either way.
All I have to say is HOLY GEEZ! This sandwich [...]
This week’s Barefoot Bloggers pick comes from Todd of A Cooking Dad. When I saw that his pick involved chicken I wasn’t thrilled because chicken is definitely not my fave. But when I looked at the ingredient list I realized it could be pretty alright. This is a 5-ingredient [...]

Every Wednesday I read the New York Times Dining Section. I love reading the restaurant reviews, articles about food issues and of course the recipes! Every week I e-mail myself at least one recipe out of the NY Times Dining Section – a few weeks ago it was this recipe for [...]

I didn’t want to BUY another eggplant in order to make a large eggplant dish (it felt counterproductive) so instead I started looking for recipes featuring eggplant. I’d also been craving pasta so I started searching for some [...]
I fully admit that I have an obsession with Fried Chicken. It may come from living in Harlem for two years (Harlem stand up!) OR it could come from my past life of being a Southern grandmother… not sure. When I saw this recipe for The Ultimate Crisp Fried Chicken from Cook’s Illustrated [...]
I’m always looking for new things to do with chicken. I’ve made it clear that I’m not a lover of chicken but I have a hard time coming to terms with that since it’s a pretty affordable and versatile protein. My main “beef” (no pun intended) with chicken is that the next day it [...]
