  • Pickle Problem

    At the store today, we were in the pickle area, because Bob was looking for banana peppers, and I got a hankering for some bread and butter slices. Every single jar, bar none, had high fructose corn syrup as the second ingredient (after cukes). I was so disappointed. As we know from the Centers for […]

  • Canticle Farm

    This morning I picked up my nephew (who is about 12) and my niece (who is almost 8), and we went to Canticle Farm for two hours to help with the garlic harvest. We arrived and trooped over to where the other workers were already busy. The beds are relatively long (for a smaller farm), […]

  • Olive Oil (or should I say, Solid Oil)

    In an earlier post, about fruit flies, I noted that I stuck the olive oil in the fridge as part of my mania against the beasties. I’m not going to go into great detail here, but yes, it does affect it. And no, you shouldn’t put it in the fridge. This is the bottle, laying […]

  • Invasion!

    Earlier this week, the house was suddenly and aggressively overrun by fruit flies. Primarily the kitchen, but also a few found out about the living room, and took up camp there. I wouldn’t go so far as to call myself an OCD germaphobe, but I am non-uniquely able to turn a blind eye to my […]

  • Steam Results

    My steamed dinner was a total success! Delicious, crunchy veggies (zucchini and broccoli) and light, succulent, flaky fish! And using the steamer was way easy. As easy as they make it sound in the mini-instruction booklet. The whole operation was quick and easy (and neat, too). See below for “before” images! There no “after” images, […]

  • Behold – the Power of Steam!

    I read a recipe in the print version of The Nest the other day for ginger steamed cod (I can’t find the recipe online, otherwise I’d link to it – but here’s something similar from Martha Stewart). The basic idea is that you shred some ginger, layer it over some spinach (or some other type […]

  • Web-curated meal

    Just a little tidbit from Fast Company: a web-curated meal. I had to read the article itself to understand what that meant! Not at all what I thought. Mmmm descriptions of food…

  • Food that’s Fast

    A report released by the Pan American Health Organization and the Caribbean Food and Nutrition Institute goes into some detail on how to get the most bang for your nutritional dollar. The report is from 2006, but it is still relevant. For example, eat fruits and veggies. Lots of them. It also offers guidelines on […]

  • A Dinner Divided

    This afternoon after work, Bob started brewing a batch of beer. It’s his second. It’s a Sierra Nevada Pale Ale clone. It’s taken over our entire kitchen. When the time for thinking about dinner rolled around, there was a giant kettle of beer waddling in the sink with a hose from outside snaking in the […]

  • Nica’s Market

    We stopped in New Haven, CT on our way home today. After strolling around the green at Yale with our iced coffees (did I mention that it was 97 degrees? Well, it was hot), we started trying to find a place for lunch. We ended up at Nica’s Market, a little gourmet market with a […]
