Every month, when the new issue of Cooking Light magazine comes out, Alysha of The Savory Notebook lists all the recipes she’d like to try from the issue. It’s a good idea. Other than the occasional recipe, I haven’t been cooking a whole lot from my magazines, which is a […]

But not from me. I don’t have much exciting to post about today. It was a gorgeous day yesterday, so Andy broke out the smoker- and I didn’t do any cooking myself to post about. But I do want to direct my readers to one of the yummiest bites of […]

by Lettie Teague It’s not every day that you see a book review on this blog. In fact, I have a whole separate blog specifically for the purpose of keeping track of what I read. But this book is different. This is a book designed to educate the masses in […]

One of my resolutions this year was to cook more vegetarian meals for my family. Admittedly that hasn’t really happened much yet other than the occasional veggie pizza. But yesterday I was flipping through older magazines looking for anything to cook for dinner that was a little different. I was […]

I guess I’ve been a little MIA lately. I haven’t done a huge lot of new cooking- nothing exciting really. It finally warmed up a tad, so we’ve been running the grill a little making standard grill food- burgers, chicken breasts, hot dogs, etc. Nothing really blog-worthy. And I guess […]

I am honored and humbled to be a recipient of the Thinking Blogger Award. Mimi, at French Kitchen In America has honored me with the title of Thinking Blogger. That means a lot to me, as sometimes I wonder if people really care much about what I am posting, and […]

Than that of freshly baking bread and a pot of ham stock simmering on the stove? I don’t think so. 🙂 There is a snowstorm on its way as I type this, and I’m really not looking forward to it. But at least we will have freshly baked bread and […]

Yesterday in my comments section I mentioned that I was going to clean my fridge and freezer yesterday. Well, I didn’t get very far, to be honest. Today maybe? But as I was standing there looking into the freezer I spied a forgotten item. I pulled it out and then […]

I’m officially tired of leftovers and comfort food. I’m running out of creative bones to reinvent those leftovers just one more time. Ugh. And it’s April! We’re supposed to be firing up the grill from time to time, and instead it’s like 30 degrees out- so no grilling yet. All […]
