Tough Days
It’s not always only about the food. It’s tough to stay positive with such miserable, horrific, unconscionable events happening half way across the world. I am once again glued to CNN watching the news, this time from Mumbai. I’ve found myself thinking about it throughout the day. It’s hard to [...]

More Good Food
I headed to the grocery store after lunch today and while I knew it was a risky decision, I guess I felt like battling the crowds. I was a bit surprised though. Don’t get me wrong, there were a lot of people, but I found a parking spot easily which was [...]

What a Turkey!
I won’t be broadcasting tonight. It’s a late night at the store, but I do have a few more shots to post. Remember that enormous pre-Thanksgiving feast we put together on Monday? Well, truth be told, I was too overwhelmed by food and it took me a few days [...]

Sometimes Simple is Better
I was tired and I had my twice-annual craving for a hot dog this week, so that’s what I decided to make tonight. I made 2 large Hebrew National dogs with half sour Ba-Tampte kosher pickles and home made potato chips. It was truly a DEElicious meal.

Global Cookbook
One of the sites I belong to, FuelMyBlog, is hosting a global cookbook event in which their food bloggers have been invited to submit a recipe that is indigenous to where they live. That was a tough one for me because so much of what we eat in the US is inspired by [...]

A Long Time
Look what Krystyl sent to me! It’s an ornament, but I am going to find a special place for it in my kitchen. I wish it was small enough to be an earring. Hmmm…maybe it can be a necklace! It was so nice of her to [...]

Chicken Marsala
By now you know that I usually pack my lunch/dinner before I head out to work. The choices for lunch are both expensive (for what you get) and not wonderful, so I try to take lunch with me at least a few times a week. Today was no exception and it was [...]

Chicken Soup
This may not be my “usual” Matzo Ball Soup, but it was DEElicious and it did what I needed — it made the challenges and stresses of the week melt away, if only for a few minutes. It was just what the doctor ordered for lunch.
The soup is much darker than usual because [...]

Be Careful, it’s Hot in There!
It’s been a challenging week and I’ve taken refuge in the kitchen. It began with a marathon day of making jelly and jam and continued on with cheese crackers and corn fritters and osso bucco. Cutting and measuring and rolling and chopping and boiling and grating and well, [...]
