My mom has been getting a lot of attention on the ole blog, but I don’t want you to think that she’s the only parenting game in town. Allow me to introduce my father: In my family, there were a few culinary tasks that always fell to my father: grilling (of course), butchering and filleting…

Raised Yeast Waffles, A Cure for What Ails Ya
It seems somewhat unfair to be posting about the world’s most delicious waffles now, on Sunday night, when most of the food-blogging world won’t be in a position to make long, leisurely breakfasts for another 5 days. Forgive me. It’s just that we had these incredible waffles this morning, and–although I wasn’t planning on blogging…
Crepe Balls of Fire
This year marked the 8th year my husband and I celebrated Valentine’s Day together. Our first V-Day, we were both in college, and I cooked him crepes in my dorm kitchen (always a scary proposition) and we ate them on a blanket on the floor of my dorm room. Maybe it was the fumes from…

It’s really their own fault that they’re not getting eaten–the crisper is not fulfilling its stated purpose, and it’s hard to get excited about eating mealy, soft apples when there are so many delicious summer berries and melons to be eating instead….
Pancake or Death?
For breakfast on a lazy Thanksgiving morning, we had a Dutch Oven Pancake (also known as a Dutch Baby) with caramelized apples. I have very fond childhood memories of my mom cooking Dutch Oven Pancakes on special occasions; they were too unhealthy (all that butter! All those eggs!) to be an everyday breakfast. Since Thanksgiving…
