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 [...]

Dining out at Grezzo

February 10, 2010

I don’t often write restaurant reviews on this blog.  I’m not sure why.  I don’t have a good reason, or any reason for that matter.  However, a recent meal out was so good I had to mention it.  I went with a friend for dinner at Grezzo, a raw vegan restaurant located in Boston’s North [...]

Mint Chocolate Cupcakes

February 4, 2010

Believe it or not, this cupcake, for me, was a lesson in self acceptance. It sounds ridiculous, but bear with me. For the past month I’ve been taking a digital photography seminar. I’ve always loved photography, but never had any clue what the heck I was doing. If I got a [...]

On Grey’s Anatomy & Baking

December 10, 2009

Tonight I taught my last class at Boston University.  All that stands between me and the end of the semester is grading.  Wow.  After how much I agonized over this for the past few months it seems surreal to say this.  I realized tonight that I enjoyed the experience, however I will admit I’ve taken on [...]

Fitting in cooking

October 7, 2009

Amazingly I have not been overindulging in caramel apple sticky buns since my post yesterday.  Surprisingly I had only one bun and a few small broken pieces.  Who knew I had so much will power!  I shared half of the rest with my co-workers and the other half went in the freezer.  I love freezing [...]

Gourmet closing!?!

October 5, 2009

Whenever I’m traveling for business I like to treat myself to a magazine or two to enjoy on the plane.  Sometimes it’s some trashy celebrity gossip magazine that I’d never be caught dead with otherwise, but most likely it’s something of the Epicurean persuasion.  Among the available titles Gourmet has always been my favorite.  I [...]

Secrets…

July 15, 2009

I have a confession to make and no, I promise it does not fall in the TMI camp.  I’m a hoarder.  Come to my 642 sq. foot condo and you’ll find that my walk in closet is full of the boxes to all my kitchen gadgets ::just in case:: they should fail and I should [...]

Revisiting Old Favorite Dishes

July 13, 2009

While I’ve always enjoyed baking and cooking I started really cooking my senior year in college when I lived in an on-campus apartment with three girlfriends.  Previously I’d relied on my college meal plan for my daily sustenance but now it was up to me to cook for myself.  I’m not sure if this is [...]

Summer Reading for Foodies

July 6, 2009

If there is anything I love almost as much as food it is reading. Geeky as it sounds an ideal weekend afternoon for me is perched with a pile of books in the reading room in the Boston Public Library.  It doesn’t matter that the chairs are noticably uncomfortable (I’ve considered bringing my own cushions) or [...]
