I had not one, not two, but three! pasta recipes to choose from this week for Presto Pasta Night. However, I chose the one that looks like worms, because it was the most fun.
Just in case you thought I was kidding. Of course, the pasta did not look like worms in the package. In fact, [...]
(Or, what I eat when I’m sick.)
Stuffed butternut squash and garlic kale. Isn’t that what you eat when you’re sick and there’s no soup in the house?
Well, maybe not. But this was fabulous. I’m sick, gross-sick, and I don’t want the roomie to get sick (cause then who’ll take care of me?), so I [...]
You may have noticed that meat doesn’t appear very much in my kitchen. In fact, I can’t remember the last time I bought any. However, I do eat it occasionally, with great enjoyment, and when my sister came in from San Diego last month, she was kind enough to roast a chicken for us. Now, [...]
I’ve never been much of a cook. I’ve had my moments, like in the 7th grade when I made dinner for 12 as a project for foods class (chicken amandine, sweet potato casserole, and some kind of soup), or when I decided that July was the perfect time to make an big pot of vegetarian [...]
I’m not dead, just in the middle of exams and not doing much cooking. But while my mind is being blown by a fabulous lunch that my wonderful roomie cooked me, I’m going to make a list of 5 foods that have surprised and delighted me recently. Feel free to chime in with your own.

I’d try to do more describing, but I think that [...]
Well, to be fair, only one will be featured in this entry, the other two are more… teasers. However, I made a well-recieved stuffed red pepper dish the other day, and as red peppers are an antioxidant rich food, particularly when combined with the arugula-pear salad I served it with, I’m happy to submit this [...]
Someone once told me an erotic story of a woman who saw a man she fancied at a art gallery exhibition of faerie/ woodland art. The woman, the story goes, ate nothing but mushrooms for a week, so that she would smell– and taste– of mushrooms, fashioned herself an enormous set of faerie wings, and [...]
In one fell swoop. This is, in fact, so good that The Roomie took one sip and said “you have to blog this”. Of course, this makes sense, given that it was inspired by telling me just how much she loves the mocha at my favorite coffee shop.
This, by the way, is The Roomie’s [...]
