I am a dedicated declared foodie. I adore food and am always in search of a new interesting culinary experience. I find this is a way to travel without leaving home.
I have issues with stuff that goes missing. I eventually found my expired passport. I decided my pink camera must have been stolen. And I’ll be paying for another kid’s library book on the 19th. I looked and looked. It just wasn’t in the recipe box or the plastic sleeves in my Household Binder where…
This is the second part of a two-part post entitled Trouble at the Table, in which I review and summarize Karen Le Billon’s book French Kids Eat Everything. It was actually one of those reads that changed my life and my kid’s by default. I hope I do it justice. Neither his food pickiness nor…
My family’s tomato soup episode was one of those final moments when I knew we were in trouble at the table. I had heard the husband strike a bargain with our 7 year-old Picky-a-saurus. Whatever treat the child was requesting could be had after he ate and finished his cream of tomato soup. OK, the…
Luck has been my lady tonight and this morning and last week. Three lucky happenstances I want to share with everyone. Tonight I found the recipe that I had misplaced. On a hunch, I searched the gourmet.com site leading me to epicurious.com and I found my beloved Fresh Salmon Salad with Chickpeas and Tomatoes here….
We had a very important party to attend this past Saturday night. Hurricane or not, we were headed towards the Pennsylvania line with housewarming gift and costumes in our trunk. We’d even booked a room at a hotel. So despite the impending doom of Frankenstorm, off we zoomed, even as we realized we didn’t have…
It would seem that Mark and I have been together for about 15 years. We like to muse the dates every so often. See, there was this kickin’ cocktail party I threw and, although me made out, I kicked him out that night but he never left my life since. Several years later, we bought…
Seems both my mother and my father in-law drank buttermilk when they were kids. With pepper on it. Like, ewwh. Although I can’t stomach the thought of drinking it straight up, my appreciation for this magical dairy product has increased over the last couple years. Somehow this thick sour liquid creates the moistest creations. In…
Today was my third OB appointment and I loved this next doctor. You never know who’ll be catching the baby come time so I’m making the rounds to meet all of them in the practice. Their fellow employees agree, they’re all nice. And like the two before him, this doc went right into the testing…
My family moved to the East Coast from the West Coast. And with them, they brought a love for some traditional foods they knew they were leaving behind. Tacos have the pride of place. We always made tacos for special visitor dinners. Supplies include: Masa Harina, the ground corn flour with only water added to…
I am as stoic as the next gal. I know regular aches are the price to pay for exercise. And recognize scarier pains as warnings to make an appointment with a professional. I also know I am a very good cook. I glide around the kitchen preparing a several course meal while making it look…
