Food Network

...I could spend way too much time watching the Food Network and knitting. Not having TV at home, when I am away, it's tempting to gorge myself on the Food Network. I don't think I could watch it much on its own, but with some knitting in my hand...

Pot roast

Our neighborhood grocery runs weekly "get one free" specials. Sometimes, you don't have to buy anything to get something free. Last Easter, for example, you could walk in with your coupon and get a free pineapple, which I imagine lead to our entir...

Rhubarb

On Sunday, we had my cousin Elise and her husband Gordon over for dinner. We traditionally have them over for Easter dinner, but they will be out of town this year. So we did it instead on Palm Sunday, which of course also happened to be April Foo...

Drake's home-corned beef that is. This year, the kitchen appliance-replacement project disrupted getting the beef started the required ~4 weeks ahead of time. And so we got a nitrate-free corned beef ...

Eating Well Soup

Of course, ingredients might be limited on the desert isle, but if I could only take one cooking magazine it would be Eating Well. The recipes are consistently creative, delicious, and healthy without relying on a lot of "low fat" ingredients (wh...

Raspberry Struesel Bars

I am loving my web subscription to CooksIllustrated.com - much handier (and less paper) than subscribing to the magazine. Today was cold, rainy, and windy. A perfect day for making these Raspberry Streusel Bars.
