Shout out to my little bro who pulled this together (no pun intended!). His recipe? A lot of brown sugar, Frank’s hot sauce, 3 lbs of boneless pork something and a dutch oven. Oh, and lots of time.

One Pot Beef Stew
Although I assume, that many beef stews are one pots. Unless you are making Julia Child’s boeuf bourguignon. Which I have a done. And it took five hours. Maybe longer. I cant remember. It was good, but five hours good? I don’t know… Anyway, we… Read More
Steak & Rosemary Potatoes
This is more about the potatoes. I didn’t do anything interesting to the steak. I didn’t need to (we splurged on a nice cut). Nice cuts of steak mean salt, pepper, a little olive oil or butter and a hot pan. Rosemary potatoes on the… Read More
Carrot Cake
My mom’s favorite cake in the whole wide world (or one of them at least) is Alton Brown’s carrot cake (recipe here). So I know you aren’t supposed to alter Alton’s recipes. They are perfected. They are science. But we’ve changed things out due to… Read More

Peanut Sauce Stir Fry
Day one of being back to gluten free and I would say it’s been a success thus far. I had a burst of creative energy in the kitchen (something that vanished over the holiday season) and spent hours concocting recipes – gluten free crescent cookies… Read More
Gluten Free
We are approaching the end of the year, which to many means making a resolution or compiling a list of activities to complete by the year’s end. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again – I can’t stand resolutions. I am not against… Read More
Sweet Potato and Sausage Soup
Our CSA has finally come to an end, but each week we received more spinach than humanly possible to consume. For example. This isn’t spinach you can just wash and be done with. No. It’s covered in dirt. And the stems need to be snipped… Read More
Homemade Nougat
The holiday season pretty much prevented me from finding time to blog. Too much wrapping and shopping and cleaning to do. But rest assure, I continued to cook as much as I could (though I’ll admit, we ate a rotisserie chicken all last week). The… Read More
