I am really loving the fact that chilly weather is here. I’ve finally had the chance to pull out a few sweaters from my closet. I love wearing boots. And, of course, you can’t beat a nice hot latte in the afternoon. As you might expect, I’ve really been focusing on chilly weather recipes lately….
Can you believe October is right around the corner? I’m not entirely sure where September went, but I am ready for October. It happens to be my favorite month of the year (and not just because I have a birthday in October)! All of my favorite foods are readily available (like apples and pumpkins), and it is…
It’s been a little while since I let Yellowdog guest post here on the site. She loved everyone’s comments on her last post, and she’s just been begging and barking to do another post. Since I let my hubby guest post a few weeks ago, it’s only fair that I give Yellowdog another chance to share…
With warmer weather comes grilling season… And, if you’re anything like me, you love trying out new recipes! So, before I get to this week’s Friday Favorites, I thought I’d share the Backyard Barbeque Recipes eBook from Food Your Way. It’s a free collection of recipes from many of my favorite bloggers, and I am thrilled…
It’s time to recap another Kitchen Bootcamp challenge! This month, I thought it would be fun to mix things up a bit and take on the World Cuisines chapter from The Professional Chef, our monthly textbook so to speak. I knew that some new flavors would help me get out of a bit of a…
We’ve been eating a lot of salads lately… Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining. It’s a good thing, really. But, here’s the thing… My husband likes chicken on his salad. It’s not unusual for us to go out to eat and for him to order some sort of grilled chicken salad. He’s better than me……
Even though it’s only a few days shorter than other months, February always seems to just fly by. I can’t believe it’s already time to talk about this month’s Kitchen Bootcamp posts! I’m glad that so many people enjoyed braising and stewing this month… It was a chapter that I often skip over (it often seemed…
Each year for Valentine’s Day, my husband and I make dinner together. Since I usually do all of the cooking, it’s a fun change to have some help and company in the kitchen. A few years ago, we choose this recipe for Chicken Saltimbocca… I’ve been craving Italian food lately, so when I decided to make braised…
It’s been downright chilly around here lately. Granted, it’s not nearly as cold as it is in Boston, Chicago, or Minneapolis… But, it has been cold!
So, when I have been thinking about what to make for dinner each night, soup is constantly the first thing that comes to my mind. I guess that it’s handy that soup is the theme for this month’s Kitchen Bootcamp challenge!
It’s Friday already, and it has been a whole week since I had my hand surgery! I am happy to announce that I am doing very well… Thank you all for your concern and well wishes! My fingers have been freed from “the claw” (the name my husband and I fondly named my giant bandage), and, though I have to be careful, I am getting back to my normal activities… Most importantly, I can now type two-handed again!
I will be getting back into the kitchen soon (I hope), which means there will be more new recipes to come next week. In the meantime, though, let’s take a look at some of the fantastic blog posts I came across this week!
