Goat Cheese Brownies Using a Boxed Mix

December 8, 2011

As I noted last year, as soon as December rolls around my food preferences switch dramatically. Most times of the year I post vastly more savory dishes than sweet on my blog (or at least it feels like I do) because in general, salt is my weakness. I’ll generally take a second helping of mac [...]

Fromage Friday: Gift Giving Guide for Cheese Lovers

December 2, 2011

I don’t know about you, but I prefer not to be reminded of the lack of shopping days until Christmas.  Normally I’m a “plan ahead and get it done early” kind of holiday shopper, but it can feel like even though Thanksgiving has just passed, I didn’t start early enough.  I’ve been paying the price of [...]

Meatless Monday: Huaraches with Cheese, Mushrooms, and Poblanos

November 28, 2011

Depending on your viewpoint, working in downtown Chicago can be described as delicious or dangerous. I’m of course, referring to all the lunch options that abound just outside my door. Back when I lived in Massachusetts, I worked for four years in a tiny town on the North Shore called Wenham.  Our office itself was [...]

Processed vs. Natural Cheese, a Tasting

November 21, 2011

Blogging is full of so many I never thought I’d do _________ moments. It’s one of the things I love about it.

Like cheese? Don’t forget to check out my fun giveaway from Il de France going on through 1:59 pm tonight.

Thank You & a Brie Tasting

November 8, 2011

I can’t say thank you enough to everyone who was sweet enough to comment on my last post. Every time a new comment popped up, I couldn’t help but smile. So thank you to you all for that. I’m muddling through it, but I have to believe that things can only get better. Especially if [...]

Meatless Monday: Roasted Beet and Ricotta Sandwiches

October 10, 2011

It’s official.  I’ve lost my momentum when it comes to unpacking my apartment.  Despite entering the whole experience with a pretty gloomy mood (as described in my previous post on the situation) I somehow managed to hit a bit of a stride.  The weekend before last was fairly open so I had two solid days of [...]

Savory Corn & Ricotta Pancakes and a Giveaway to Celebrate the End of Summer

September 12, 2011

I know I said I was ready for fall. Still, I’m having one of those be careful what you wish for moments.  The cold chill seemed to have set in a little early and at first I was loving it, but now I find I’m missing certain trappings of summer.  It’s a little harder to [...]

Fromage Friday: Smoky and Spicy Mashed Sweet Potatoes with Bacon and Goat Cheese

September 9, 2011

Things lately have been tremendously hectic.  Between quitting one job and starting another (which I absolutely LOVE by the way), withdrawing an offer on a condo, traveling to Minnesota and Las Vegas, and starting an apartment hunt, any attempt at normalcy has quickly fallen by the wayside.  But the truest testament to the harried nature [...]
