This is one of the dishes that I made over and over again last Fall. I always thought I hated Brussels sprouts until my father made his version which were roasted with caramelized onions. I fell in love. I could have eaten the entire dish myself. Well I made a variation, and then variations on [...]

It’s official! It’s Fall! So for any of you who celebrate the equinox, I wish you a happy one! I took a rather blissful walk last night celebrating the change in season, and took a few photos along the way (sorry, it was dusk and the light was not working with me). I walked down [...]

It’s another sunny day here in Seattle. I had to be at work at 7:00 this morning for a meeting, and I woke up to a gorgeous sunrise. That made the early wake up a little easier. Plus quite honestly I had a huge cup of tea before bed, and instead of lolling in bed [...]

I lived on a few dishes last fall, they were all fairly simple to make, healthy, and incredibly satisfying. This soup made many an appearance on my dinner table. The only change is that now instead of having fresh Grana Padano cheese melted on top, the soup gets a healthy sprinkling of vegan Parmesan. I [...]

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. I definitely had a productive one., at least partly! Friday evening I went to my friend and neighbors’ house to buy some of their amazing produce. They have a yard to envy. They live outside the city a bit and their entire yard was planted with edible landscaping. [...]

I promised a soup extravaganza, but really one of them was much more stew than soup. Not that I cared, it was so good I think it might just be my “stew of the season”. My neighbor (his driveway is the drop off spot for the CSA boxes) came by with “extras”, as he does [...]

The first stirrings of Autumn are here. We got a lot of rain this weekend. Much needed rain. To most of the country Seattle seems like a damp and dreary place. What most people don’t know is that our annual rainfall isn’t all that much. We have gone through a drought this Summer and last [...]
