Big announcement & a giveaway

February 23, 2010

Whenever my blog’s gone quiet it’s a good indication that my life offline is anything but. So given that this is my first post in almost two weeks you might assume that something huge is going on, and you’d be right. I usually keep this blog focused on my cooking with only slight appearances from [...]

Salmon, Goat Cheese, and Apple Maki

February 3, 2010

When I’m dining out I try my hardest to venture out to new restaurants.  I figure life is short so I might as well try as many different places as possible, especially when each new restaurant provides the opportunity to bring untapped inspiration into my kitchen.  Sometimes though I will venture back to a favorite restaurant. [...]

Fromage Friday: Constant Bliss Review

January 15, 2010

When I told you I’d be eating healthier I promised that there would still be talk of cheese around these parts, and I never go back on a promise. I really wanted this week’s cheese to be another new discovery, but alas my cravings led me to an old favorite instead: Constant Bliss from Jasper [...]

Fromage Friday: Bethmale Review

December 25, 2009

Merry Christmas everyone.  Even though the holidays are upon us I still wanted to share with you a great cheese.  This week’s cheese is Bethmale, a raw cow’s milk cheese from the Midi-Pyrenees, a mountainous region south of Toulouse, France  near the Spanish border.  It’s a semi-hard cheese with a lovely washed rind that surrounds [...]

Fromage Friday: Di Stefano Burrata Alla Panna Review

December 18, 2009

This week’s cheese is Di Stefano Burrata Alla Panna.  Burrata is a fresh Italian cheese made from mozzarella and cream.  Staring back at me from the Whole Foods cheese case, this cheese looked like a present wrapped in green ribbon, which seemed to resemble banana leaves.  It wasn’t what I came in for, but having [...]

Chocolate-Chocolate Whoopie Pies with Whipped Chevre Filling

November 13, 2009

It’s been a long time (too long) since I posted my last Fromage Fridays entry, since the end of August in fact.  Fret not, I’m just as in love with cheese as ever, life has just gotten in the way of me exploring it as much as I would like.  When I saw the Chavrie [...]

Caramelized Onion and Mushroom Enchiladas with Spicy Pumpkin Sauce

October 27, 2009

I have a confession to make and one I hope won’t get me kicked out of the food blogging community.  I’m not much for pumpkin sweets.  I feel like a bit of a killjoy this time of year when everyone I know seems to be excited about the reappearance of pumpkin spice lattes, pumpkin pies, pumpkin oats, [...]

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 gourmet [...]

Cauliflower Apple Puree with Chevre

September 14, 2009

I hope everyone had a great weekend.  My Saturday was nothing remarkable.  It was pouring in Boston and on top of it I had to go into the office and work so I was in a royally gloomy mood.  Sunday more than made up for it though as my boyfriend and I made the 45-minute [...]
