Crab Salad BLT

January 18, 2012

Sweet Potato-Bacon Doggie Cookies

October 27, 2011

Over the summer Oliver spent a little over a month with my parents for what we’ve affectionately called ‘Grandma & Grandpa Camp.’ (Even though to be fair, my sister who had the summer off from teaching did the bulk of the dog sitting.)

Bison, Butternut, and Bacon Chili and Other Autumn Eats

Cauliflower, Potato, and Cheese Soup

February 11, 2011

As when making any resolution or goal it’s not uncommon, after a little while to find yourself bumping up against obstacles. You know, one moment it’s smooth sailing and the next you hit the kind of road block that makes you want to give up or revert to your old ways. It usually comes just [...]

Pumpkin Bacon Wontons with Maple Balsamic Sauce

February 2, 2011

Confession time – I sometimes crush on a dish the way a girl normally crushes on a guy.  Silly, I know, but I do.  I’ve come to terms with the fact that my relationship with food borders on unusual most of the time. Sometimes I am first acquainted with a new meal and it takes [...]
