The above photo is the embarrassing stack of unread magazines that I need to go through. Months worth in fact. The purpose of this post is to publically shame myself into getting this done. I subscribe to these for inspiration, for new ideas and for food, obviously. So, tomorrow I’ll be in a car for […]

Dessert – Easy Peasy.
Well, first off this is my first attempt at making a food video, it is thankfully, silent. I was inspired by a story about crepes over at NPR. Crepes are of course notoriously easy, and notoriously a pain in the ass. Sure simple enough in theory, but no thanks I’ll stick to the cheat I […]
Passion Fruit Frozen Custard
I first tasted passion fruit ice cream 3 years ago in Paris and just fell in love with it. A couple months after returning I got a craving for it and decided to track down a recipe, I found just the right one in Ultimate Ice Cream . Really great flavor, consistency, just like the […]
Inspiration…
So, I’ve been talking with friends lately and trying to find inspiration for things to make and things to try with food while I have this unplanned downtime.

Focaccia with Caramelized Onions
As evidenced by yesterday’s fictional post, I’ve got some time on my hands and what better way to spend that extra time than with some of my favorite cookbooks. The recipe I used comes from The Mixer Bible and is one of my favorite breads to make. And if you don’t like onions, there are […]

Meatballs for Leigh’s Dad
So, my friend Leigh has a great relationship with her dad, and they have awesome Sunday dinners that Leigh is almost always the one cooking for and she has a challenge, her dad can’t have gluten which rules out anything with wheat flour. Breadcrumbs being an important part of meatballs pretty much rules them out […]
8 Random Things About Me

Soup’s On…
This morning I was catching up on reading other blogs and came across a recipe for Kale & Roasted Vegetable Soup. I thought it was interesting but have family members who don’t like kale, and it was also a vegan recipe, and I think we all know how I feel about Vegans, (they should be […]
