What a deal! I scored a nice piece of cod for $8, reduced more than 50%. Wow did I feel lucky! Timing is everything. Scoring a great deal on a nice piece of cod, my mind could not help to think of fish and chips. I wanted a nice beer battered piece, deep fried to […]
I don’t know why, but (to me) fries tasted different in Europe. It wasn’t the fact that they often are dipped in mayo or other exotic sauces, seemingly the fries themselves, had a different flavor. The fries I most often had in Europe had a tendency towards the long and narrow versus thick and chunky. […]
Pease porridge hot, Pease porridge cold, Pease porridge in the pot, nine days old; Some like it hot, some like it cold, Some like it in the pot, nine days old. When I was just a wee child, last year (not really but it seems like that), my mother would serve me oatmeal. And I […]
As soon as I get my Williams-Sonoma catalog I tear through it, looking at every item on every page. Devouring every recipe, exciting new product and then checking my account and once again realizing that I have the proverbial champagne taste on a beer budget.

Meyer lemons have magically shown up here in Great Falls, […]
Can you believe, me the ultimate beef lover, has never ever tasted or cooked a flat iron steak before? I know, I know, everyone else has. Where have I been, out in the pasture with cows? It was high time that I put an end to this situation. When my grocer had them on special […]
I decided making cauliflower puree look appetizing on its own is quite difficult. After pureeing the roasted cauliflower it becomes this pasty ecru color and looks gritty, actually very unappealing. I’m not trying to turn you off in my first few sentences but I’m finding it difficult to describe this tasty puree because it is […]
This Valentine’s Day you’ve probably planned to go out to eat or make a special meal. You’ve carefully selected the perfect gift to show your sweetie, honey, baby, kid, mom, who ever just how much you love them and how special you are to their lives. I did something different.

McGyver sat me down last Saturday and said, “I need to lose some weight and I’m going to start Monday, right after the Super Bowl.” He told me this after I already made the menu for the week, after I just finished grocery shopping.
