This is my kinda lunch. I have some flatbread crackers, sliced smoked gouda, pepper jack, dubliner, sliced apples, smoked turkey, smoked salmon and prunes. I know- gross. But I’m getting old, plus I just like the way they taste- everyone needs more fiber!

Tapas Party
Originally uploaded by lyricalmezzo
During the Cavalcade of Fun, we had a tapas party. This was really fun and everyone loved the food and the fun of the many dishes. You can do it however you’d like. I tried to make most of the foods compliment each other. As the appetizer we had some yummy [...]

I love soup. Especially potato soup.
The last few potato soup recipes I’ve tried have left me flat. So when I checked out the “New Recipes from Moosewood Restaurant” book from the library, I was hesitant to try the potato soup recipe.
Luckily, I threw caution to the wind and tried it anyway, and I’m so glad [...]

Dev and I went to Sante Fe and Albequerque this weekend, so Sunday was the only day I cooked.
I had a ton of veggies left in the fridge from the harvest at [...]

You are looking at the very first ever batch of flour tortillas I’ve ever made. They came out pretty well.
I think next time I will sub whole wheat for some of the flour, and I will definitely add some herbs to the dough.
The recipe was simple. I found it [...]

Dev’s mom gave me this neat little pan for Christmas.
The idea behind it is pretty ingenious. You fill the little indentions half full of batter, then you drop some sort of filling in, put more batter on top, then flip and cook the other side. You are rewarded with little pillows stuffed with wonderful things. [...]

Sorry I haven’t posted a lot lately. It seems since we got back in town Monday night, I’ve been running 6 ways for Sunday. I have done quite a bit of cooking, but none of it has necessarily been blog worthy. Tuesday night I did my favorite tomato/garlic/feta/shrimp pasta. Wednesday we had breakfast for dinner, [...]
