Differences
If you haven’t been here before, take a look around and you’ll see that I’m about inviting people into my home for dinner from prep to plating — virtually, that is. I cook on camera … the iSight video camera in my Mac, a couple of nights a week. And many nights there [...]

Really
You’ll be spending a night at the museum with me tonight. Well, mostly in Mitsitam, the café. Last night I mentioned that I made a trip into DC with my son (Tim) and his girlfriend (Abby) for the day on Saturday. We had no real plan, but since Abby had never been [...]

Arrival Feast
Tim and Abby arrived Friday evening while I was doing my thing at work. But never fear, I’d planned for dinner in advance and it was all waiting when they arrived. I thought they might be really hungry after a day of travel, but a snack was all they needed to tide [...]

Do NOT Miss This Treat!!
This appetizer is difficult to describe. Articulating how incredibly delicious a grilled artichoke with grilled lemon is has been troublesome for me tonight. Not because I had any alcohol with my meal. Nah, you know me. I was not intoxicated by spirits. Nope, it was the [...]

Omelet
I haven’t made an omelet this good in a long time. I don’t often do the big breakfast thing, but the other morning I woke up hungry and this was just what I was craving. I had a variety of ingredients in the fridge that sounded perfect so I headed to the stove [...]

Freedom First
It was a long Winter this year. I usually complain that it doesn’t get cold enough, that there isn’t enough inclement weather, that it’s “not like it used to be.” But this year it did get cold enough. It didn’t snow, but Winter did last forever, or for what felt like [...]

Simple Sandwich
I had chicken defrosting in the fridge when I got home from the farmer’s market last night, but was really interested to see how the long, thin sausages I picked up from the German meat vendor at the market would turn out. I cooked them up as the chicken was finishing and put [...]

Farmer’s Market
In the past couple of years we’ve heard so much about the need to “buy local.” I haven’t really embraced it. No, it’s not that I don’t believe it’s necessary, but it takes some effort. Just as it’s important to conserve water and fuel/energy, it’s important to support local producers. We have a farmer’s [...]
