I’m super behind in documenting some kitchen adventures. And even though I haven’t officially committed to 52 new recipes in 2013 … I’ve already got quite a handful under my belt. Last weekend alone, this is what I made: – Buffalo Chicken Tenders – English Muffins – Deviled Eggs – Shepherd’s Pie – Apple Charlotte…
In the event you were wondering, it is most definitely soup season. It’s like I don’t know how to exist without a stockpile of frozen homemade soups in my freezer. Currently I’m rocking some arugula lentil soup, chorizo lentil soup and now this little gem. A brown butter tomato soup.
I’ve never made deviled eggs before. But something about them seemed appropriate for a Downton Abbey premiere party. It didn’t seem right to have a party to celebrate the 1920s … and not have more than one course. Here’s what I ended up serving: – Deviled Eggs with sun-dried tomato and fried shallot! – Shepard’s…
I’ve been waiting to make english muffins for quite a few weeks and finally this weekend seemed like the right time. I tend to have an english muffin every workday morning as part of my second breakfast. Yes, that’s true. The world begins to collapse around me when I miss meals during the workday ……

I spent this past New Years in Vermont with my friend Meghan. While we were sitting on couches across from each other one morning milking some cups of coffee (or maybe it was evening beers?), I realized that this was the 3rd New Years in row that we’d celebrated together. Then I realized that we’d…
A year ago I visited Norris River Reservation by myself one Fall afternoon. It was pretty great. I told myself that I’d be back soon. Heck, it was really close by and not streneuous … at …. all. Then, I moved to the North End. And when I came home to my parents’ house I…
Yesterday my baby brother turned 14. Yikes right? It’s hard to believe that the little nugget is now closer to being able to drive than color inside (and outside the lines). In the tradition of birthday dinners, Baby Brother got to pick what he wanted to dine on. There was some back and forth but…
You know when you are in a new relationship and all you want to do is just talk about the new person in your life? You are looking for ways to just slip their name casually into discussions. Or, your friends catch you smiling at your phone in the middle of a windowless conference room.…
A few weeks ago, I started to research how to make my own English muffins. I figured that anything that I love as much as those suckers, I should at least attempt to make once. So, I picked up some cornmeal and… since then it’s just been sitting in my cabinet. Bummer. But, this past weekend I had…
