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 [...]

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 [...]

Sun Dried Tomato-Feta Dip

September 6, 2011

I am unapologetically a girl who loves cheese. Goat cheeses, Bloomy Rind Cheeses, Chocolate Covered Cheeses.  There are few cheeses I’ve met that I dislike, though I admit there are a select few that aren’t exactly my favorites.  Feta cheese happens to be one of those cheeses.  In the 3+ years I’ve had this blog [...]

Fromage Friday: Ascutney Mountain Grits with Sausage, Peppers, and Tomato

July 28, 2011

I’ts not officially Friday, but I don’t care.  I’m celebrating anyway, so Happy Fromage Friday everyone!  My official cheese posts have been on hiatus for way too long.  I’d like to say it’s because I’ve been getting my girlish figure back by decreasing my cheese intake, but I think we all know that’s a lie.

Fresh Garbanzo Bean and Goat Cheese Pate

July 27, 2011

For this installation of the 5 Star Makeover we were challenged to create a 5-star style dish with seasonal ingredients from our local farmers’ market.  We could use standard pantry items, but everything else had to come from the market.  Even though our deadline was extended an extra month due to holiday travel and even [...]

Lightened Fingerling Potato Salad with Caramelized Onions, Bacon, and Blue Cheese

June 14, 2011

I’ve never been one of those girls who sits on the sidelines. Usually when something interests me I leap in exuberantly.  Because of that, I have no idea why I’ve waited to so long to join the Daring Kitchen.  I’d seen some of my favorite bloggers post impressive and creative monthy entries for the Daring [...]

Cheddar-Apple Sandwich Cookies with Peanut Butter Filling for Dogs

June 9, 2011

Now that the warm weather has arrived in Chicago Oliver seems to be in a perennially chipper mood.  He’s loving the long walks in the sunshine, chasing bunnies and squirrels, and a recent discovery, using the neighborhood fountain as his personal doggie swimming pool. But if there is one thing he hasn’t enjoyed it’s all [...]
