    Garden Couscous Salad

    So.  Is the room spinning or is it just me? I keep waiting for the opportunity to arise where I can kick off my shoes, lay on my back in the sand, find Bugs Bunny as Brunhilde hidden in the clouds, swim in a clear blue lake, and turn to a cooler fully stocked with everything [...]

    Candied Jalapenos (Cowboy Candy)

    This last week, my baby brother Luke told me admiringly that I had finally done it.

    “To which it do you refer?” I inquired.

    “IT!” said Luke.

    Luke was referring to this.

    This sandwich blew my mind. It was the perfect sandwich. I do not use the phrase ‘perfect sandwich’ lightly. It is a very serious appellation to [...]

    Celery Soda

    I have to admit that Celery Soda is not exactly a normal sounding recipe.  While watching Alton Brown whip together this recipe on Good Eats, my first thought was, “Celery WHAT?”  My incredulity notwithstanding, the idea took hold.

    And boy did it ever take hold.  My brain kept trying to imagine how a syrup steeped with celery [...]

    Ham and Cheese Bites

    This past weekend I officially became my mother.

    If you’ve been reading me for a while, you’re aware that I am the eldest child in a large family that includes a baby sister.  This baby sister of mine is still in high school.  Sadly, she is not hopelessly stupid.  No, she’s in high school because she’s [...]

    Homemade Mascarpone

    A Tale of Two Mascarpones:

    “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter [...]

    Homemade Hummus

    I spent nearly seven years as a vegetarian; those years were spent subsisting mainly on hummus, cheese and big green salads. I long ago enthusiastically re-entered the omnivore world* but still spend a great deal of time conveying hummus to my mouth on various crudites and pita chips.

    Hummus is the first rite of spring that I [...]
