Practice, Practice, Practice
I love New York pizza. Well, not just NY pizza. I grew up on New Jersey pizza and let me tell you, it’s serious pizza. We had a pizzeria in town called Tony’s. Tony’s was a small place with long tables lined up from the door to the counter [...]

How Could I?
I put this meal together two weeks ago, uploaded the shots, wrote a few captions and promptly forgot to write and post info. There’s no time like the present. We took a spin around Asia that night:
Indonesian Fried Chicken — Williams-Sonoma’s A Taste of the World
Sesame Peanut Soba Noodles
Soy-Dipped Radishes — [...]

Time Marches On
It’s hard to believe, but in just 7 days, I will have been blogging for two years. While I was diligent, obsessed, crazed even, about posting daily for the first 16 months, I took a step back and looked at things when I moved from the Wordpress.com domain to the Justopia.com domain [...]

Knock Knock

Well ok, maybe a little. Or a moderate amount. Or perhaps a lot … of shame, that is. I’ve anticipated replacing the manual pasta maker I had when my kids were babies. That makes it over 20 years that I’ve been without one and after rolling the dough with [...]

A Winner!
I don’t quite remember why I chose this two of these as my prize selection(s) for the Thanksgiving contest, but a vague recollection tells me that I already had most of the items on that particular list in my kitchen. As I recall, most of the items were those that you’d put in [...]

Possessed?
I think I’m possessed — by a movie. Yep, a movie. Years ago, um …. maybe 20 years ago … I saw a great movie. It was one of those movies that leaves you smiling as you walk out of the theater. The movie is Shirley Valentine. It’s a movie [...]

Or just über busy
I know. I don’t want to sound like those bloggers that are always apologizing for long spans of time between posts, so I won’t. I’m in Jersey visiting my sister and her family for Passover. But as you see here, Tuesday night was all about dying eggs. No. [...]

Side Dish
I’m in the mood for fried green tomatoes, but it’s not the right time of year here in the northeast. If I lived south of the equator, it would be the perfect time — the beginning of fall, just when the last of the tomatoes are trying to ripen and the choice is [...]
