Harvest Bread Salad

October 11, 2009

Thanks to the Foodbuzz Tastemaker Program I had the chance to sample two of Nature’s Pride loaves of bread: 100% Whole Wheat and 12 Grain. Even better, Nature’s Pride is offering sponsorships for six bloggers to attend the Foodbuzz Blogger Festival in San Francisco this November. To enter, bloggers must create an original recipe using [...]

Weekend Eats

October 10, 2009

  I hope everyone is enjoying a restful weekend.  Mine so far has been quite low key, which after a typically hectic week I especially appreciated.  This afternoon my boyfriend and I decided to embrace what might be one of our last semi-warm days of the fall by having a picnic.  We visited our favorite [...]

Fitting in cooking

October 7, 2009

Amazingly I have not been overindulging in caramel apple sticky buns since my post yesterday.  Surprisingly I had only one bun and a few small broken pieces.  Who knew I had so much will power!  I shared half of the rest with my co-workers and the other half went in the freezer.  I love freezing [...]

Caramel Apple Sticky Buns

October 6, 2009

This weekend I had the pleasure of going apple picking at Smolak Farms with fellow Boston-area food bloggers Elina, Shannon, Lauren, Kerstin, and Nicole.  (You can check out Elina’s recap here.)   In other words, by the time I finally (almost) finished off my apple stash I found myself with 1 1/2 crisper drawers of apples [...]

Gourmet closing!?!

October 5, 2009

Beet Pasta

October 4, 2009

My CSA share is continuing to provide endless amusement. Every Monday I find myself giddy with curiousity about what I might find. I still haven’t come to terms with the fact that this is the last month of my share.  I especially love watching the offerings change from June to October.  The selection has gone [...]

Cider-Braised Pork Chops with Apples

October 3, 2009

My latest CSA share pick up was yet another exciting parcel.  It consisted of a smoked ham steak, pork chops, lamb osso bucco, lamb chops, and lamb shanks.  Lamb happens to be one of my favorite meats so I was overjoyed at the abundance of it and look forward to sharing different preparations of it [...]

Apple Date Muffins

October 1, 2009

Among the things I have discovered about myself while working in the city is my lack of self control around a bakery case. In the early morning I find myself taunted by oversized-bagels ready to be toasted and schmeared with cream cheese, crispy croissants that promise molten interiors of chocolate or cheese, and dense scones [...]
