Merry Berries!
Merry Christmas everyone! I hope that you all are having a wonderful day with family or friends (or both!) My family is gathered in the North Country of the Adirondacks snuggled down in the house, with a fire roaring and gift wrappings everywhere. The cat and the dog are passed out on the couch, having [...]

Roasted Nuts with Cocoa and Salt
I can’t wait to tell you about this recipe from Joy of Joy The Baker. It’s sweet, salty, and perfect for giving away this Christmas season, or keeping all to yourself! But first, I have some housekeeping to do…
I’ve been so busy with shopping and wrapping and shoveling and baking and cooking and etc etc [...]

Leftover Turkey Lemon Soup
Today, in Boston, it is grey and rainy and generally dreary. Which is, if you ask me, a perfect example of how I feel about going back to work after the Thanksgiving holiday. All of the planning, the cooking, the eating, seeing family and friends, traveling, and relaxing is over, and we’re back to work… [...]

Salmon with Caper Vinaigrette
I wanted to share this recipe up because it’s so easy to make (a lot easier than taking a good food photo when it’s dark out!), and really good. Salmon and capers have always been linked in my mind; my mom always made them together when I was younger, and so many delicious recipes use [...]

Mmm, one of the best fall treats there is. Roasted pumpkin seeds! Ever since I was a little kid carving pumpkins on the kitchen floor, I’ve known to save the seeds for this yummy snack. Over the course of the last week or so I’ve scooped out the seeds of two different pumpkins (and I [...]

It doesn’t get more Autumn than apple pie. The smell, the taste, the fruit, the process. I know I promised you roasted pumpkin seeds (and I’ll deliver!) but these pie pics were screaming to me. I mean, really? Who doesn’t love a good apple pie, cooling on the windowsill? How very grandma’s-house-in-the-country. Whether you’re just [...]

As many of you know, Monday brought some very sad news to both the magazine industry and the food world – both of which are clearly important to me. Publishing conglomerate Conde Nast made the very hard but important decision to close four of their titles, as well as requiring the rest to submit budget [...]

Broccoli Feta Pasta
So I’ve been getting a lot of great tips lately from Apartment Therapy’s food/kitchen blog, www.thekitchn.com, and when I saw this recipe on there I thought I absolutely had to try it – and conveniently, we had everything on hand already! The ingredients are few and common, but they produce a sauce flavor and texture [...]

Well if the weather is not going to cooperate (80 degrees on Wednesday!?), I will bring Fall into our lives via the dinner table. This weekend saw these yummy chops, pumpkin cream cheese, pumpkin loaf, and our cold(er) weather staple, the ‘family’ meat sauce (more on that to come!). And although I sat outside in [...]

Grilled Leeks and Endives
I may not have mentioned it before, but I love leeks. They are such a skipped-over little onion-like veggie, that deserve way more credit than they get. Some day I will post an awesome pasta recipe I have that uses leeks in the sauce. But seriously, these guys cook up so nice and tender and [...]
