Whole Wheat Apple Scones

September 30, 2008

I am decidedly not a morning person. Every night I go to bed with the best intentions of arising early the next morning to ease myself into the day. This rarely happens. I hit snooze. I roll over. I sleep in. Because of that my breakfasts are usually on auto pilot. I know I should [...]

CPK’s Thai Tortilla Spring Rolls

September 29, 2008

My original intent was to make these tasty appetizers for my Debate Party, but unfortunately they were last in the queue of recipes for the night and I didn’t have a chance to complete them. The roadblock was not time, but a lack of counter and table space to assemble. It turned out to be [...]

Back to the Kitchen

September 22, 2008

Unfortunately I didn’t set foot in my kitchen once this weekend because I had to work on a large presentation. Thankfully it is over today so I am planning to be using the stove a lot this week. In particular, I’m having a Presidential Debate party at my apartment on Friday so I will be [...]

Top Foodie Highlights in Northern California

September 20, 2008

Sorry for the delay. I’ve been having some troubles with my home internet so while I started on this post earlier in the week, I couldn’t actually get it up onto the internet and then ended up losing all of my hard work. Without further ado, my list (in no particular order): Chez Panisse – [...]

Sorry for being MIA….

September 19, 2008

Unfortunately I’ve been having issues with my internet at home so I am writing quickly from work. I have a “Top Foodie Finds” list in the works so hopefully I’ll have it up this weekend. I’m thinking a trip to my favorite coffee shop for free wifi is in order. Thanks for the comments on [...]
