Ile de France Camembert

2008-07-23T01:27:48Z

To know me is to know I love cheese. In fact, my friend Renea sent me this mug a while back and it pretty much sums up my daily life: So, when I got an email regarding sampling Ile de France cheese, I was all over it. I had my choice between ...

White Bean Salad with Fresh Herbs and Olives

2008-07-20T01:25:08Z

Fabulous! A perfect balance of Mediterranean flavors. The beans are lemony without being tart and the garlic and herbs add subtle but unmistakable undertones. Excellent with any kind of grilled or broiled red meat, poultry or shrimp. I'm afraid i...

A Cool Salad For A Hot Summer's Day

2008-07-19T01:24:23Z

It's hot, hot, hot in Boston! It's so hot we even put in the bedroom air conditioners and, for two anti-AC types such as my husband and I, that's a sure sign of high-temp weather. Well, cooking and eating something hot was out of the question, so...

Back with burgers

2008-06-17T01:33:49Z

What Greeks Eat

2007-06-09T01:32:32Z

Some food tastes good but it doesn't look pretty. In fact, I don't think it's meant to look pretty. It's just meant to comfort you. Oh and fill you up :) Tonight was one of those meals. I think Giada calls things "rustic" when they are homey and...

Cuckoo for Kashi

2008-04-07T00:07:30Z

I'm a bit of a Kashi fanatic. At about 10:50 nearly every weekday morning, I eat a Kashi granola bar. I love the TLC crackers and I especially love the party crackers. Go Lean Crunch with fruit and Greek yogurt is a fantasic snack. Even the froze...

Garlic Herb Bread

2007-11-11T04:14:18Z

I decided to use the last of the "poultry rub" herbs I bought the other day on some bread that I thought would go well with our meal of--you guessed it--soup! This bread turned out great! It was nice and crusty and very flavorful--though I'd prob...

Chicken with Herbed Pan Sauce

2007-11-08T01:58:12Z

Don't you hate it when you plan something only to have those plans thwarted? In an effort to keep grocery shopping and eating out costs down, I try to plan meals for about 7-10 days in advance. I don't necessarily plan things day by day, but just ...

Along came another pesto

2007-07-03T23:53:57Z

I had a decent amount of fresh sage that I wanted to use up before we went out of town for the weekend. Rather than adding a leaf or two to a meal, I decided to go with a pesto so that I could use up more of the sage. To put a slight twist o...
