  • Recipe Oatmeal Muffins

    Oatmeal Muffins
    My baby bro is really funny. Last month when he came to visit, I fixed him some breakfast, a bowl of oatmeal with cinnamon and sliced banana, my favorite way to start the morning. I took a risk making him oatmeal, I knew that. I mean, it’s[...]

    Homemade Applesauce
    You all know it takes no time to whip up homemade applesauce, right? And you know how good it is, too, right? Just a quick little post here to make sure. I’ve been enlisted to make applesauce for this Thanksgiving so I’ve been[...]
  • Recipe Lidia Bastianich?s Butternut Squash Gnocchi with Sage Brown Butter

    Lidia Bastianich?s Butternut Squash Gnocchi with Sage Brown Butter
    I haven’t been drawn to a recipe like this in awhile. It’s not that butternut squash with sage brown butter doesn’t sound insanely delicious ? seriously, what sounds better this time of year? ? it’s just that these days[...]
  • Recipe Fresh Corn Polenta ? Where Have You Been All My Life?

    Fresh Corn Polenta ? Where Have You Been All My Life?
    Fresh corn polenta ? oh fresh corn polenta! How could I have forgotten about you? I discovered you this time last year. I was out to eat. You were in my bowl. It was love at first bite. You were the very best polenta I had ever tasted, your[...]
  • Recipe Sautéed Corn + an End of Summer Salad

    Sautéed Corn + an End of Summer Salad
    I’m spoiled. Really spoiled. I live in a place where even tomatoes still taste good this time of year. I’m not trying to rub it in, just expressing my gratitude. I do realize, however, we are approaching mid-October and already the[...]
  • Recipe Rosemary Shortbread + Cute Parchment Paper Packages

    Rosemary Shortbread + Cute Parchment Paper Packages
    Careful. These are addictive. They’ve got that sweet-salty dynamic, but also a hint of rosemary, a savory touch that might lead you to eat ten of them, as you would a cracker. Try not to do that. Man these are so good. I’m never[...]

    Chicken Legs Baked with White Wine, Olive Oil & Parmigiano Reggiano; Making the Most of a Whole Chicken Part Two
    Can you remember one-third cup? That’s really all you need to know in order to make this recipe: one-third cup olive oil, one-third cup white wine, one-third cup freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano. Garlic and thyme are nice additions but[...]
  • Recipe How to Make the Most of One Whole Chicken, Part One: Broiled Tarragon Breasts

    How to Make the Most of One Whole Chicken, Part One: Broiled Tarragon Breasts
    I’ll be honest. If I saw a recipe for broiled chicken breasts on a blog, I’d probably stop reading. The words chicken breasts never make my mouth water. Sorry. Blame Liza. I was conditioned at an early age to favor dark meat. But[...]
  • Recipe Nectarine Pizza with Fresh Basil and Reduced Balsamic

    Nectarine Pizza with Fresh Basil and Reduced Balsamic
    I ate this whole pizza tonight. All of it. By myself. Not one slice remains for me for my breakfast tomorrow. I tried to refrain. No dice. So, if you’re still in summer-bathing-suit mode, avert your eyes. This combination is so good. I[...]

    David Lebovitz? Chocolate Biscotti ? Great Recipe
    Several months ago a dear friend casually mentioned in an email her disappointment with a batch of chocolate biscotti she had just baked. I have been obsessed with finding a good chocolate biscotti recipe ever since, testing recipes, fiddling[...]
