Whoever invented the oven, I could kiss you! I have been really into my roasted veggies this week and I just had to share yet another photo straight from the oven! That is 1 delicata squash, 1 bunch broccolini, and 1 bulb of garlic, roasted to perfection in some extra virgin olive oil. Perfect Fall [...]

After a long chilly & drizzly day I was craving soup. I crave soup a lot during the Autumn and Winter so this is no surprise. I sat at my desk at working taking inventory of my pantry and freezer at home.

AKA Rain. It’s raining in Seattle again folks. Not that that will surprise anyone, though I do know it makes one Venezuelan beauty a bit teary. Personally I love this weather. I love the rain and what it brings. I am a big fan of moss, and green, and grey skies, cozy coffee shops, mushrooms, [...]

I am a huge dork, let’s just get that out of the way. After making the glorious burgers a couple of weeks ago I decided that I needed to have them again, and SOON. But since Matt thought they were a bit “carroty” for him*(see note) I wanted to come up with a recipe that [...]

It’s hot. It’s REALLY hot. I am from Texas and have been through some scorchers, but at least in Texas we have the decency to have air conditioners. Yesterday in Seattle it got up to 103° F in some spots. I am not amused. I have been trying to think of things to eat that [...]
