When I lived in Europe, Asparagus was a revered vegetable. The season started in May and ended around Mid-Summer’s day. In England they treasured nice meaty stalks (but not woody), in Germany the white asparagus was on every menu and in France and Italy the small dainty little asparagus showed up salads, pastas and any […]
Remember when I received all that dill in my Bountiful Basket? I posted these deviled ham eggs and then I posted the Flounder Olympia (which you need to try if you haven’t yet). But that’s not all baby! I made this fantabulous quiche also. Actually I made quite a bit more but didn’t photograph it […]

“I heard it from a friend who, heard from a friend, who heard that you’ve been messing around” Can you name that band? Folks, I’ve been messing around. That is on other food blogs. Some of you know that I belong to the Secret Recipe Club, it’s a place where you get assigned another blog, […]
When I made this it made me think of my daughter. If you’ve ever visited Leah’s blog (which is sporting a cool new logo!) you would know that she luva, luva risotto, adores lemon and goes gaga for asparagus. Let’s not forget about the wine, she loves that too. I have to say that the apple does […]
