[This is a post that I wrote months ago and never put on the blog. No picture, just a fantastic recipe.] During this health “event”, I have been so lucky to have the support of friends and family. My oldest (not in age) friend in CA, ABM, arranged a schedule for people to come over [...]

Get Well Soon Soup
Posted in soup, vegetables on August 11, 2009 | 3 Comments »
When friends and family have had surgery, my first response has been to make a carrot soup that is like a health tonic. To me, and seemingly to those for whom I’ve made it, it is the first meal that makes them feel better. I even have one friend, for whom I made this, that [...]

I’m still full. Actually, that isn’t true. I’m full from eating leftovers for lunch. The new recipes that I tried for our celebration last night with JS and JO were a hit. First off, we had wonderful starters prepared by JS. Perfectly ripe honeydew melon draped in shaved proscuitto and creamy, rich deviled eggs sprinkled [...]

Monday night, I made an old recipe for me, that is new to my family. It is a recipe for Black Bean Soup that was copied from the New York Times, given to me by a friend from work…about 16 years ago. I remember making it then, and loving it. I have made it since, [...]
Luncheon for 16

Throwing a party is very, very fun and very, very low stress when you share the work with good friends. Last Friday, I hosted a luncheon at my house with 2 great friends in honor of another great friend. The menu was inspired by a Russian theme, but we didn’t stick totally to the theme. [...]

When we were on the East coast visiting during winter break, we took a little side trip to visit my brother in Philadelphia. It was a quick visit, but we had a very memorable meal. My sister-in-law, AAB, is a great cook. She always makes special treats for us when we visit, an effort which [...]
Too Darn Hot
Posted in dinner, food, soup, vegetables on April 19, 2009 | 2 Comments »
It is at least 88 degrees outside and we just couldn’t deal with hot food tonight. We also went out for a big, Vietnamese lunch at a local restaurant we’ve been wanting to try. It was great and we all ate too much. So, for dinner, the request was Gazpacho. Love it. I cleaned off [...]
Soup and Sandwiches
Posted in dinner, food, soup, vegetables on April 15, 2009 | 2 Comments »
Some like soup and sandwiches for lunch. We like it for dinner. We have this combo frequently. It is such an easy meal. Vegetables in the soup. Protein in the sandwich. If you aren’t eating bread, for whatever reason, you could certainly substitute a salad. Tonight we had J’s request: Artichoke Soup. Everyone usually has [...]

Our week of vacation at home means that we are going to be having lots of meals on the road this week, as we explore San Francisco. The days when we have lunch out, we’ll have light dinners, and the days when we have dinner out, we’ll have light lunches. Today, we had lunch at [...]
Unexpected Kids Cook Sunday

We came home early from skiing. L’s broken leg and lousy weather meant we were on the road in the morning and home for lunch. When L and I were watching TV, for several hours while her leg was elevated on Saturday, we tuned into Bobby Flay’s “Throw Down”, on Food Network. He was making [...]
