I’ve been so busy lately - adding another job to my already busy life. I have not had too much time for cooking so I have endeavorded to find healthy pre-packaged food. I came across a yummy Kofta Curry (vegan friendly) put out by Tandori Chef. For less than $4 you get a yummy Indian [...]
Sunday Dinner
Posted in Seafood, Thoughts, Vegetables on September 9, 2008 | No Comments »
Sunday dinner was all about comfort food.
I made smashed potatoes which I find much lower maintenance than mashed potatoes. I just boil some chopped red potatoes with a few garlic cloves and a bay leaf, then remove the bay leaf and smash the potatoes and garlic with some butter, a little salt and pepper and [...]
Yeah-What She Said

I would like to clarify a few terms used in Diane’s last post. When we say “Cavalcade of Fun,” what we really mean is lying around on the couch watching tennis, or lying around on the couch watching “Friends” reruns, or lying around on the couch waiting to find out if the baseball game has [...]

I love the dinners I make and I think, overall I am very successful in the kitchen, but I definitely have a “menu” from which I draw my ideas. I think part of that is that pretty much the same ingredients are available at each store in town - nothing really different from the next [...]

I am so thankful that Di has been able to single handedly keep this blog going. I don’t even remember the last time I posted. I’ll save you the long version of the story and just say that I have not been feeling well since right before school got out.
Hopefully I’m on the road to [...]
