January 25, 2014 By Laura 18 Comments

I almost forgot to share this recipe with you guys, which would have been a crime! It is that good! But boy it has been a weird month. The cruise was enough alone to make everything topsy turvy–I would love to say that we always get out of town in the winter but actually that…

Chicken Legs Braised in Spanish Pomegranate Vinegar Sauce

Turkish Ground Beef and Pasta: Review of Bruce Aidell’s Great Meat Cookbook

March 27, 2013 By Laura 5 Comments

The Good Cook had one of their bundle sales recently. I am hopeless in the face of a good cookbook bundle sale. All it takes is at least 2 or 3 books that I know I want, and I start searching for other books that I think are worth checking out at such fantastic prices. This time,…

Pomegranate Chickpea Curry

April 25, 2009 By Laura 9 Comments

I have a meal to share but currently I am too lethargic to type much. This is a silly picture to share probably, but 4 burners with gorgeous stainless steel pots bubbling away (and room for all 4, despite 3 being pretty big) made me quite happy. First of all I am really, really full….
