Technically, these are called “beet pickled eggs” but it might be more accurate to call them “gently beet pickled eggs”. But they look great right? Look at those beautiful pink edges. I had inadvertently did not respond to the family text chain about what I was brining to Easter dinner. While I often ask others…
I really love Auntie Anne’s pretzel bites. Like, while I never hope for a travel delay… the only upside is that I can treat myself to pretzel nuggets in South Station. There are some downsides to buying pretzel nuggets. One? It costs $4. Which isn’t exactly crushing but it is when you consider its a…
With the move behind us, I was excited and maybe a little anxious to get in the kitchen and make my first meal. Technically my first meals were frozen pizzas, takeout chicken fingers, and the inaugural box of Kraft Mac and Cheese… but let’s not split hairs. I’ve always wanted to cook seasonally and try…
And… we are back to Downton Abbey season! I feel oddly cautious about burning myself out like I did last year. A three course meal is a fair bit of work for each Sunday evening – obviously, it’s not terrible work … but work none the less. There were some great hits last year. Kerrianne…
It takes a fair amount to get me to turn on the oven in the summer. I don’t have one of those fancy apartments where the heat tends to stay inside the oven. If I set the oven to 375 F, my apartment tends to turn into 375 F. But, when summer calls for heat…
I have a desperate weakness for Auntie Annie’s pretzels. When I see that bright blue sign, I can barely resist overpaying for some salty, buttery, carby delights. I’m not sure when they debuted the pretzel sticks to the product line but I’d consider those babies my gateway drug to the pretzel nuggets. Those suckers are…
Ah, it’s another week of Downton Abbey under our belts and that means another 3 course meal. So here’s what the menu was for this episode: – mushroom tartlets – roasted cod with tomato pancetta stew – almond chocolate cake I’m not sure how much longer I can keep this charade up honestly… however, it…
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…
This is a good news, bad news recipe. Good news? Avocado fries are tasty. Bad news? Avocado fries are easy. I’m getting ready to go to head to Maine for the Labor Day holiday weekend… and as a result, I’m trying to eat anything in my house that will expire. I was a little overzealous at…
On Wednesday, I tweeted that I would only make myself some soft pretzel tots if I went for a run on Thursday. It was very well intentioned. I really thought I would go for the run. But then it rained. And. I got some cavities filled. So, instead I felt sorry for myself and gummed…
