D: Yum!
I want one of these.
K: 12 Days of Cookies – French Sables
“On the third day of Christmas my true love gave to me three French hens.” Our third Christmas cookie is a French sable. I had never had this cookie before – they were very much like the chocolate version of a Sandie cookie. The dough was a little bit crumbly for my taste, but I … Continue reading K: 12 Days of Cookies – French Sables
K: 12 Days of Cookies – Pipers Brown Butter Shortbread
“On the eleventh day of Christmas my true love gave to me eleven pipers piping.” Remember how I said I loved shortbread? Yum! Today’s shortbread is a brown shortbread that’s made from browning the butter, and then making one large batch. These were very rich, but also tasty! (I bet drizzling some chocolate on the … Continue reading K: 12 Days of Cookies – Pipers Brown Butter Shortbread
K: Easy Meals, Part 3
Lest you think that D is the only chef in our house who can do quick and easy meals, I thought that I would share a relatively fast and easy recipe for stuffed eggplant. Not only did the dish require little prep time, it also used a variety of veggies around the house. Don’t like … Continue reading K: Easy Meals, Part 3
D: Basil Chicken and Cashew Crescents

K: 12 Days of Cookies – Gingerbread Lords
“On the tenth day of Christmas my true love gave to me ten lords a-leaping.” Today’s cookie is a gingerbread lord a-leaping! I’m always on the search for the perfect gingerbread cookie recipe, since I find that many are either too soft or way to hard. I overdid today’s slightly, and they were a bit … Continue reading K: 12 Days of Cookies – Gingerbread Lords
K: Paula Deen Cinnamon Rolls
This was a pretty simple recipe that I used directly from Paula Deen. I may disagree with many of her recipes, but cinnamon rolls deserve to be rich, buttery, and delicious!
K: CSA August 10
More veggies! The official word is that we are nearing peak production, so our produce will start dwindling at some point in the next few weeks. We still had quite a bit of food left over from last week, so we wound up giving away a bunch of this week’s haul. Still, there are a … Continue reading K: CSA August 10
D: Chili Peppers
Here’s an interesting article from the New York Times about chilis. I think this quote about sums it up: This is the kind of plant that endears itself to a teenage boy. These weren’t vegetables, they were weapons! And it was legal to grow them. Also, if you didn’t know this already, I suspect you’ll … Continue reading D: Chili Peppers
