Spice Drawer Redo
My spice drawer got out of control. Slowly at first, but it picked up speed, and suddenly chaos.
The Legend of FU Chicken
I can’t believe I haven’t done my roast chicken yet. It is one of my favorite meals in the world. Right up there with steak, potatoes, and an arugula salad, if I ever am on death row. Anyhow. In our family my roast chicken… Continue Reading “The Legend of FU Chicken”
Country Breakfast

Guest Star and Cooking
So last weekend, we tried to shock the well – we failed – but we still didn’t have water. We went to my parents’ house to spend the night, and my mother and I cooked together. Mediterranean Pork and Orzo, and a chocolate soufflé.… Continue Reading “Guest Star and Cooking”
Making Healthy Eating Easier
So last week the grocery store had chicken breasts on sale. We can’t eat them all quickly enough to make a family pack worthwhile, and I’m terrible at remembering to pull out chicken early enough to unfreeze it before cooking. So I set about… Continue Reading “Making Healthy Eating Easier”
