One of the things that I look forward to at the end of each week is a simple twitter message from Everyday Food Magazine called “Cocktail O’Clock.” It features a link to a special libation-of-the-week. And one of these weeks I may actually make one instead of just salivating at the photo. Last week’s feature,…
italian pot roast – everyday food challenge
My little Everyday Food Challenges marches on as I cook my way through every issue of Everyday Food Magazine. This week we land in issue #18, the 2004 Holiday Issue filled with lots of winter delights. I decided to revisit the Italian Pot Roast. I made it back when the issue first arrived in mailbox….

We’ve begun a new tradition in our house, and it’s now two weeks old. For the last couple of Sunday’s Greg has been the waffle master. And this past weekend he found the perfect recipe and made it his own with a little twist. While Greg is on waffle duty, I heat up a new…

five senses friday (the one about the canoe trip)
It’s a very special Five Senses Friday today. It all revolves around just one day, instead of the usual week. Today I was able to mark off another item on my 37 Things List, #33 canoe. I confessed to Greg this morning that the whole reason the list existed was to get to canoe. I…
