I mentioned several times that my daughter has been planning and making a couple of meals a week some weeks not every week. But I love when I don’t have to do all the work. And it is work to come up with a plan, buy the ingredients, take those ingredients and make it into something the 3 of us would like to eat. That … Continue reading Seared Steak with Spicy Garlic-Miso Butter
Good morning and Happy Mother’s Day! It is a sunny start here in NH and I again woke to what sounds like a kitten outside my upstairs bedroom window. I have been hearing a bird that sounds like a kitten crying for at least a week now. I also hear it while sitting on the porch after work. I am guessing it must be feeding … Continue reading Chicken and Artichoke skewers with Herb dressing
This morning did not go how I had envisioned how it was going to go; not complaining just pointing out why I am so late in posting. I had planned on looking through some of my food pictures; decide on one to write about and share the recipe. I awoke to my husband making breakfast and he invited his parents and my son and daughter-in-law … Continue reading slow-roasted pork shoulder with garlic and citrus
I was just sitting here going through my food pictures trying to pick something to write about. Even though I just came back from grocery shopping and then eating dinner I kept saying ooh did I share that already, damn that looks good. We should make that again damn now I am hungry again. My daughter made this a few weeks ago from Ayesha Curry’s … Continue reading Gnocchi with Proscuitto and Fig Jam
Happy Easter!!! I hope you are able to spend this Easter with some family or friends. I know we are not out of the craziness but I have hope that we are close to getting back to somewhat of normalcy in the world. I have faith that masks will not be a requirement everywhere we go. I at least I really hope so. We should … Continue reading Pot Pie – pancetta, white beans and swiss chard
After reading this you might wonder how I could possibly pair the recipe I am going to share versus what I had for dinner last night. The first picture is the recipe I think you should make. All pictures are from my phone. Last night was a gastronomical experience; I think that is the only way to describe it. We met some friends at Stages … Continue reading Hawaiian BLPTS – King’s Hawaiian rolls
This is another recipe my daughter tried from Ayesha Curry’s cookbook. It is called Chicken Tagine in her cookbook. I personally do not own a tagine so I feel kinda bad keeping the word in the recipe, a tagine is a conical pottery cooking vessel, I am sure you have seen one if you have ever walked through a kitchen store. The top looks a … Continue reading Chicken Tagine
Keeping with the use what we have in the fridge theme from last week. My daughter made pulled pork tacos for dinner one night last week. They good but I don’t think they were blog worthy. I really try to blog about dishes I really want you to try. SF I wonder if you will be reading/trying this recipe wink wink. With that being said … Continue reading one pot pork and chourico with rice
So a good friend of mine says that one of my super powers is to look at what I have on hand and make a meal with it. My freezer’s are too full so I have been trying to not shop, which a few of you know is hard for me; Stop laughing SF and KP. They know I LOVE to shop which I will … Continue reading grilled shrimp with polenta cake
I will say it is pretty nice that my daughter has been making a couple of dinners a week for the last few weeks. I love cooking but getting a little break here and there is pretty cool. I mean even if I didn’t write a weekly food blog and feel obligated to come up with something new for dinner. Making dinner 7 or say … Continue reading pineapple chicken fried rice
