    Hot Lemon Shrub

    Several years ago I got into the Aubrey/Maturin series of books by Patrick O’Brian.  And by ‘got into’ I mean that I obsessively read all twenty one books (including the unfinished one)  back to back so quickly that I can’t remember what happened in which novel.  There was hardly a moment when one of O’Brian’s books left my [...]

    Eggs in A Basket: Baked Eggs in Toast Cups with Melty Cheese

    Update:  This recipe was submitted as an entry in the NYC Eggland’s Best Recipe contest…

    Yesterday, Bacon Toffee.  Today?  Eggs in a Basket.  Bacon and eggs.  See?  I’m practical…

    And this dish?  It hits all the right buttons. It is flavorful, cheap, easy to prepare, simple to customize, cheap, and kid friendly.  And did I mention it’s easy on [...]

    Bacon Toffee

    Did you see the Maple Bacon Cake over on Thursday Night Smackdown?  Michelle, the proprietress of TNS, is a true lover of the bacon and made ample use of bacon toffee on her cake.  I’ve been meaning to make a sweet bacon dish for about a year.  A few months ago sweet bacon recipes started popping [...]

    Chocolate Chip Drop Scones (A.K.A. Breakfast Cookies)

    I am about to let you in on a secret.  I routinely lie to my fourth born child.  But I confine it to food and hope that since it’s with the end design of nourishing him that eventually I’ll be forgiven.  He has such strict (and arbitrary) rules about what he will and won’t eat.  He won’t touch [...]

    So do I believe him or don’t I?

    "Leif. Did you eat some of the blueberries from the bowl?"

    "Uhhhhhh, no!" quoth he.

    So my question is this. Do I believe him or [...]

    Mystical Magical Slime. Hours of fun for kids of all ages.

    Please allow a departure from the normal for a moment. It isn’t that I’m lacking a recipe to share with you.  It’s just that the recipe isn’t one to eat.  The blog is titled, “Foodie With Family”, right?  Well, today’s post is for the kids (and the kids at heart.)  Those of you who have school [...]

    Chocolate Truffle Tarts

    Were you paying attention when I suggested having some of extra tart shells on hand in the Individual Grapefruit Tart post this week?  This is why I said that… 

    Rich, decadent, pure, unapologetic chocolate ganache. These are too good to believe.

     

    With five minutes of hands-on time I turned out these phenomenal Chocolate Truffle Tarts.  To make [...]

    20 Minute Beignets

    I make no secret of the fact that I’m a fan of the book ‘Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day’.  Using their Master Recipe, I have experimented and made some of our new family favorites; Bread!  Fully Loaded and English Muffins, among others.  I’m the first to admit that I tend to get stuck in ruts.  [...]

    Individual Grapefruit Tarts

    I was making my usual rounds in the food blogging world when I popped in over at the Smitten Kitchen.  She was making whole lemon tarts and I was, in a word, smitten.  I’ve always had a real thing for lemon bars, and for tarts of any kind, and combining the two?  Well, shut my mouth.

    I [...]
