Well, here is this next year’s list. We’ll see how we do. Some I plan to concentrate on more than others, and I admit that I had a difficult time coming up with 10 specific goals, but we’ll see how I do. 1. Focus more on Flexitarian eating. What do […]
Month: December 2007
That Barefoot Contessa Is Trouble!
Because this was seriously one of the best eggs I have ever eaten. Andy is going to be all sorts of sad when he sees this post and sees what he missed out on, but hey, a girl’s got to eat sometimes. This started as an egg moment. I reached […]
A Very Simple Supper
Yet one the whole family enjoyed. The dinner idea began with a package of chicken wings. Everyone in the family enjoys chicken wings. They’re fun to eat, and there are countless ways to prepare them. Last night, it was simply baked. I’d sprinkled them liberally with seasoning salt, pepper, and […]
So How Did I Do?
I thought it would be fun to look back at my food goals for 2007 and see how badly I did. 🙂 When I made this list last December, I expected normal life for most of the year. What actually happened was that I spent a majority of the year […]
What to Cook, What to Cook…?
Pretty fun looking huh? I have been pining for this wok for a long time. Steamed Dumplings anyone? To go with this gorgeous piece of kitchen equipment, a very nice cookbook that has me drooling for some Thai, Chinese, Japanese, and Indian, as well as all the other cuisines well-represented. […]
Merry Christmas from Tummy Treasure!
A Very Merry Christmas from my family to yours! We’ll be busy celebrating the wonderful holiday over the next few days. I’ll be back soon with an analysis of this year’s food resolutions, a look ahead to next year, and of course, plenty of new recipes to fill your tummies […]
Last Minute Gift Idea?
Try this one. Sorry I forgot to snap a picture, but everyone who’s had it has enjoyed it completely. I would have never thought of peanut brittle as a great gift- but apparently it works great because I have to keep buying peanuts to make more! You can certainly use […]
Hot off the Presses!
Trust me on this one. When I say you NEED the newest issue of Eating Well magazine, you need to pay attention and go pick it up at the bookstore. As soon as you possibly can. Today I found the February 2008 issue in my mailbox and while Eating Well […]
A Pretty Cookie
This last Saturday at the cookie party I went to there was a cookie disaster. One of the ladies had found a recipe in her local paper for a chocolate covered cherry cookie. It had actually won a contest and was the featured recipe for the contest. They looked really […]
Cookie Days
Up to now I’ve really only made a few cookies for Christmas. I’ve been making candy to give as gifts, and to nibble on, but for the most part the cookies have waited. I’m a bit of a freshness nut, so I like to make my cookies as close to […]
A New Use for Zucchini
After completely overdoing the zucchini this past summer, I am finally to the point where I can begin to eat it again. Really, I’d had enough of it for a long while, and learned my lesson well for next year. I was looking for a different appetizer to serve this […]
Havin’ A Party!
Yesterday we had a Christmas party for our regular Sunday Company Dinner folks and a few other friends. It was a blast. We all had a great time visiting and eating, and really getting into the holiday spirit with each other. I have a couple of recipes to share with […]
