I just went apple picking, which I believe is a first for me! All of the nostalgic apple picking memories that I have from childhood I believe are from movies and TV shows. Although it wouldn’t be surprising if there’s some childhood picture of me […]
I’ll be the first to admit that I’m in a cooking rut. This is the third macaroni and cheese that I’ve made in the last couple of weeks (I ordinarily make one about once a month, but still). This might say something about how integral […]
This is a sort of a Pacific Northwest, Italian, Mediterranean-themed pasta salad. Really, it’s just a hodge-podge of everything that I have in the refrigerator at the moment. The other day I made Barbecue Salmon w/ Lemon & Onion for Salad w/ Salmon, Couscous, & […]
I’ve just gotten back from a trip and am getting back in the swing of cooking again. Maybe not with a bang, but certainly with something. It was a working vacation and I do cook for a living, so I can’t entirely blame myself for […]
I made Cashew Dip w/ Lemon & Dill the other day along with a Grilled Salmon and Roasted Kabocha Squash Purée. It’s probably inevitable that absolutely everything there was going to get combined into one dish. I’ve been toying with the idea of pasta salad […]
I made an entire box of rigatoni. Don’t ask me why. I usually only make half a box at a time. But, for whatever reason, I just said let’s go for it! Maybe because I’ve been secretly craving pasta salad and I wanted extra for […]
The final days of summer are almost upon us. Daylight is beginning to dwindle and grilling season is coming to a close. Not that it’s not possible to barbecue during a snowstorm. It wouldn’t necessarily be my first choice? But, given a power outage in […]
Tomorrow is St. Patrick’s Day and I absolutely must use the rest of my leftovers before I inevitably cook more! I have plans for something delectably green for the holiday and absolutely do not want to be sitting on copious amounts of rice and salmon […]
I have rice sitting around. The other day I made a Salad w/ Baked Salmon & Tamari, Rice Wine Rice. As delicious as that recipe is! I don’t particularly like eating the exact same thing every day. So, I’ll take the leftover rice and make […]
I made almost this exact same Omelette last week. And, as good as that omelette was, I was thinking that it could perhaps be improved upon! You know when something good feels a little bit too simple? I’m all for those nice, delicate little meals […]
