Caramel Apple Ice Cream & Happy News

October 27, 2009

Not only is fall one of my favorite seasons, Halloween is also a favorite holiday. Growing up October 31 was always a big deal in my family’s house. When I was in elementary school my parents began the tradition of throwing Halloween parties for my sister and me as well as our friends. The highlight [...]

Homemade Canned Apple Pie Filling

October 12, 2009

Brrr. It’s starting to feel like October in Boston. It was in the 40’s when I woke up this morning and when the alarm went off it took all the willpower I had not to roll over and hide under the duvet. On fall weekends I love sleeping in on mornings like this, but on [...]

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 [...]

Plum Topped Baked Oatmeal

September 19, 2009

When I was in college I thrived off being busy.  My days were a whirlwind of classes, extra curricular activities, sorority functions, internships and part-time jobs.  Call me odd but trying to be a wonder college student was my kind of adrenaline rush.  I often did some of my best work late in the night [...]

Blueberry Biscones

September 5, 2009

Thanks for all the words of encouragement on my first class. It went errr…well, not up to my expectations. I know it’s narcissistic to expect to be some kind of stellar educator off the bat but I can’t help but feel dissatisfied at how it all went down.  What was funny was what I had anticipated tripping me [...]

Blueberry-Peach Muffins

August 31, 2009

In cartoons there are often those scenes in which a character has the company of a devil and an angel, one on each shoulder. Comedy often ensues when the devil and angel both try to exert power over the individual, each pulling in favor of his or her recommendations. Lately I’ve been feeling a similar [...]

Pasta with Italian Sausage, Red Wine and Grapes

August 31, 2009

This weekend the weather abruptly shifted from steamy to crisp with occasional showers. It seemed like an obvious reminder that my summer was coming to an end. Normally I welcome the beginning of fall. It’s one of my favorite – if not my top favorite – seasons. I love picking Macintosh [...]

Featherlight Blueberry Pancakes

July 14, 2009

Yesterday was yet another fun day at the CSA.  My set items included a pint of freshly picked blueberries and spring onions.  In addition I chose broccoli, garlic scapes, green beans, and tomatoes.  This morning I used the first of my fresh produce - the blueberries - for my breakfast.  I knew I wanted pancakes, the question [...]

Local Strawberries and Roasted Bananas Topped with Sweetened Fromage Blanc

July 7, 2009

Long title for such a simple dish.  After successfully making a batch of fromage blanc I wanted to test it out in a relatively unadulterated way.  Sweetening it lightly with honey and serving it atop fruit seemed like a logical choice, especially after reading many blog posts (like this one) that used fromage blanc in [...]

Multigrain Peach Waffles

June 28, 2009

This weekend was incredibly restful.  Friday was a day off for me and spent running errands with a friend and enjoying a brief lay by the pool.  Yesterday my boyfriend and I took a road trip to pick up more milk for my cheesemaking and also go outlet shopping.  I happened to luck out because [...]
