It’s been a while since I reviewed a cookbook. Hope you haven’t been waiting with bated breath.
There’s a higher end boutique that I visit (mostly to browse or look on the sale rack). They carry some cool cookbooks and I always peruse through them and then snap some photos of the covers so I . . . → Read More: Cookbook review: Half Baked Harvest Every Day

I never have all the ingredients needed in the house when we decide to have a “snack night” especially once I get past the holidays. After the holiday rush of cooking and entertaining, I usually rely on what’s in the pantry and freezer. Being more frugal and using up what’s on hand is . . . → Read More: Onion Dip-Fire Crackers

From the get-go, let me confess, I don’t usually seek out musicals. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t hate them. I’ve seen Cats at least four times (should I even admit to that?). Jesus Christ Superstar is a nostalgic favorite for me and my sister. I can sing along with most of Les Misérables.
But, . . . → Read More: Sunshine on a Plate for La La Land

I have no idea where January went. It seems like I was just putting up the Christmas decorations. Now, I’m hanging the Valentine’s Day wreath on the door. Time is just moving too fast.
To be honest, I almost skipped this posting. There was just nothing new in the kitchen. Then I . . . → Read More: “In My Kitchen” February 2024

I’m hosting the Dec/Jan round for Cook the Books. Cook the Books is a group of like minded culinary readers who obsess with foodie fiction and non-fiction alike. Well, maybe it’s not an obsession for all of us but I certainly could find a bit to relate to in Dan Adhoot’s Undercooked: How I Let . . . → Read More: Not Undercooked Risotto

As I started reading the intro to Big Heart Little Stove by Erin French, I kept thinking, “I know her. I know her story.” Yes, sometimes I live under a rock, but I started thinking back. Did she write a memoir? Did I read it? I finally decided that I had seen a news story . . . → Read More: Big Heart Little Stove by Erin French

A cookbook plus a gardening book. Bonus! Luay Ghafari, blogger at Urban Farm and Kitchen, created Seed to Table: A Seasonal Guide to Organically Growing, Cooking, and Preserving Food at Home (Kitchen Garden, Urban Gardening) to help us all find a balance.

Prior to the holidays (and honestly even through Christmas), I just didn’t cook that much. At. All. The Hubs was on a diet in a weight lost contest at work. (Kudos to him; he won!) So, we were eating mostly salads around here. I really don’t consider salads cooking but some were truly worthy and . . . → Read More: Coq Au Vin-ish (with Rosé )
