Choucroute Garnie

Published on 2012-01-02 12:52:00

Living in Pennsylvania, one is nearly forced to have pork and sauerkraut on New Year's Day or face the threat of being shunned. It's kind of like football; don't claim to love another football team but the Eagles, or else (ahem, we all know I'm a Steelers fan - rule breaker that I am).I get away with liking the Steelers because they're a Pennsylvania team, so I figure I can get away with pork and sauerkraut any way I like as long as those 2 ingredients are in it - right? Of course.My very favori

Savory Breakfast Rolls

Published on 2011-10-23 11:48:00

Once again, I'm still here. Just in case you were worried. Life has gone and taken a complete 180% turnaround, though, and that's good. That's very good.I've moved again recently and am still getting settled. I'm pretty sure that will take the next year or so, but the kitchen (the most important room in the house) is almost finished and getting quite the workout already.I made these savory breakfast rolls today and the kids devoured them almost before I could grab a couple good ones for photos.

Chive Blossom Vinegar

Published on 2011-06-11 10:20:00

Years. It took years for me to finally get a chive plant to bear blossoms. I'm not sure why I had such a difficult time, but my best guess (along with a bit of investigation) is that chives don't bloom until their second year. At least mine didn't. I had planted year after year in various locations and many times didn't even get basic chives. I was told often that they grew "anywhere, like weeds", without having proof of that at all.Last year I grew chives in a container, but only the chives the

I Still Make Dinner

Everything from the grill: flank steak with crema (Mexican sour cream, because sometimes the usual just doesn't cut it), cliantro and lime. Corn in the husk, zucchini, green onions and shrimp. Dessert? Double-berry milkshakes.I haven't been absent from here on purpose, and it hasn't been for anything bad, just busyness on my part. Back in March I started another job working nights. That's all well and good, and the original purpose was to work at night so I would still have my days open for chil

Eggland's Best Brunch

Published on 2011-04-05 08:12:00

This past Sunday I was able to host an Eggland's Best Brunch at my house. We had a packed house and an equally packed table featuring recipes from both Eggland's Best and Fabio Viviani's ebook, "Did I Really Make Breakfast?"Why Eggland's Best eggs? Well, take a look at the stats for yourself.

Baked Ham and Cheese Sandwiches

Published on 2011-03-20 17:42:00

There's nothing like a versatile recipe to make my day. Add to that affordable and quick and you have a real winner for me. With so many picky eaters in this household, it's difficult to make something that everyone will like. This sandwich can be made with any meat or cheese and come out just as good so experiment a little like we do. Switch out the ham for turkey or the provolone for Swiss or cheddar. There really is no end to the combinations with this recipe.The original recipe (this is act

Rice Pudding and Raw Milk

Published on 2011-03-07 07:22:00

Just about a year ago I began buying raw milk. Not for daily or even weekly consumption, but for a once-in-awhile thing. I'm not completely sure what my motivation was beyond the fact that it's a bit controversial and from much that I've read, if conditions are right, it isn't all together unsafe. In fact, for many people with lactose intolerance, raw milk can be a Godsend.Nobody here has lactose issues, and for the most part I'm fully happy with the pasteurized 2% that I buy for daily use, but
