People it has been a week. The kind of week that I am pretty sure was actually 2 weeks. Or maybe 3. Or even 4. John left us toward the end of spring break for a conference in China. That was the Wednesday before last. He is still not home. OK, to be fair he…
“Twisted Tollhouse” Shaved Chocolate Cookies
OK I joined yet another blogging group, and they all post the first week of the month (or thereabouts) and they are all baked goods, so… Hope you’re in the mood for sweets! This one is called The Leftovers Club, and it is not limited to sweets, just to items that ship well. The idea…
Turkish Ground Beef and Pasta: Review of Bruce Aidell’s Great Meat Cookbook
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,…
Salted Vanilla Oatmeal Cookies/Review of Pure Vanilla
I think by now regular readers of this blog know that I prefer thick, crispy on the outside but chewy on the inside cookies. So it should come as no surprise that these cookies were a huge hit by virtue of their texture alone. That their flavor is absolutely amazing just makes them that much…

I have some confessions to make. First, I am having trouble getting my mojo (read: routine) back since being sick for so long, which means I have not been cooking quite as often. So the baking parade continues…
Interview with Faith Gorsky of An Edible Mosaic
Our Cookbook Tour project is slowly winding up. It has been so much fun–not to mention delicious–promoting Faith’s An Edible Mosaic: Middle Eastern Fare with Extraordinary Flair. To put the frosting on the cake, so to speak, Faith answered sme questions for me that I thought might be of interest to my readers. Everyone involved in…
Salted Browned Butter Blondies & A Review of OXO’s Mini Beakers
Word to the wise, my friends. When you are taking Flagyl and supposed to be avoiding even the slightest trace of alcohol, that includes vanilla extract in baked goods. Let’s just not even talk about how I know.
Late Night One Bowl Vanilla Sour Cream Cake
Plain or simple are not works I associate with the cooking I do. Ironically, therefore, my baking is pretty much the opposite; I don’t like too many flavors going on at the same time. And when I am sick, as I was over Christmas, I want my desserts to be even more plain. Almost boring…
Cook, Eat & Tweet: #AnEdibleMosaic’s Lentil and Bulgur Pilaf with Caramelized Onion
I have big news! Do you remember when I told you guys about joining Kitchen Play’s new project, Cookbook Tour? Well, we have an awesome new event going on to support Faith’s book, An Edible Mosaic: Middle Eastern Fare with Extraordinary Flair, called Cook, Eat and Tweet. Basically those of us involved in the project…
