Okay, this post is totally late in coming. But I was a little bit preoccupied. (And yes, it did take me almost a week to recover from throwing the best baby birthday party ever.) Anyway, from the last week of CSA produce ever (er…at least for this year), I am sharing with you the most […]
I have a lot of squash in my house. Like. A lot. And one of the easiest ever ways to use up fall squash is to roast it and toss it into a grain salad with some greens and cheese. I have been a little reluctant to share this with you, because I feel like […]
CSA Week 17: Winging It
Sometimes I look in my fridge and think, “Why is there nothing to eat!?” As I am staring at the shelves piled high with perfectly good food, nothing seems like it would come together quickly, and none of my produce and dairy products and leftovers seem even remotely able to work together. Does that ever […]
CSA Week 17: Miso-Curry Delicata Squash
We have been getting a lot of fall squashes from the CSA! At least two per week, usually weighing in over 1 lb. apiece. Good thing I love fall squash! It’s also been fun to get to know some of the different varieties. Normally, I am a butternut-acorn-pumpkin girl, but now I am learning about […]
Wow. Today was really a day, if you know what I mean. It started out with very few hours of sleep, became more harried and more chagrined as I rushed off to an early morning meeting that turned out not to be today, and was compounded by my darling son spitting up on my crotch […]
Do you ever go to a restaurant and order exactly the right thing? It sounds like a small detail (duh, who intentionally orders badly?), but if you’ve ever agonized over a decision about what to order and come away unhappy with your choice, then you are probably also familiar with the sheer bliss of ordering […]
It’s the middle of January! I am already flagging on my New Year’s resolutions to eat healthy. Is that just me? It’s time for a delicious pick-me-up. And what is more delicious than a glut of hearty, colorful veggies, stirred into some slightly chewy, nutty quinoa? My good friend Sarah over at Well Dined agreed […]
As Fall officially winds down, it’s time to use up the last of our beautiful orange squashes. And boy, is this galette a delicious doozy! Seriously, I wish butternut squash were in season all year long so I could make this more often…although the anticipation is pretty sweet, too. Just close your eyes and imagine […]
Okay. I am a squash junkie. Am I alone in this? I mean, squash is great in all its forms. I could eat it for every meal. Luckily for me, there are about a bazillion winter squashes, so I am unlikely to get bored, no matter how much squash I eat! Let’s try out this […]
Happy New Year! What is it about fresh starts that is so exciting, so full of promise? I made like 10 resolutions this year (of course, about 5 of them are already shot…oops). Like…well, every American after the holiday season is over (ahem), several of my resolutions centered around eating well and getting back in […]
