I’m incredibly fond of cheese curds. They’re quintessentially Wisconsin and Costco sells them in multiple pounds around here! But they’re not strictly reserved to the Dairy State. For one thing, California has had superior cheese producing numbers for decades. And I grew up in Oregon […]
I have anaheims ripening in the garden. I’m quite fond of anaheims. I more commonly stuff queso fresco and/or quinoa in larger peppers. But I prefer the flavor of anaheims! Obviously enough to have grown quite a few in my porch garden. So, that is […]
I do not want to go grocery shopping. I have already been to Costco and picked up Greek yogurt, chicken for the dogs, and new pillows. Which have absolutely nothing to do with food! Although nothing that I have picked up is a meal in […]

I acquired a barbecue the other day. Which is really just code word for someone left a perfectly functional grill on the side of the road and I am from Portland, where picking up orphaned furniture is practically a past time. So now, of course, […]
I am trying to step up my bread game. Now, I’m by no means a master bread maker. To date, this Dutch Oven bread recipe is the only bread that I have been able to consistently make successfully more than once! But we all know […]
I want to make macaroni and cheese. It’s one of my favorite dishes. It’s also one of the easier roux to make. A lot of roux have a tendency to be delicate and finicky and break. But macaroni and cheese is kind of like the […]
