Often lauded as the most important meal of the day, breakfast is something Z and I celebrate on the weekends. Weekday mornings are generally rushed, an English muffin with peanut butter and jelly all I can manage to throw together as I jet out of the door. Highly unglamorous, this meal is purely functional, giving me a start to the …
Z came across The Savoy Cocktail Book while perusing the various titles both old and new in Omnivore Books on Food, a culinary-themed bookshop we discovered during our recent trip to San Francisco. Originally published in London in 1930, The Savoy Cocktail Book is a compilation of classic recipes which have been celebrated with flourish at the American Bar, located …
Egg nog on Christmas Eve was as sure a thing as Santa Claus on Christmas morning. As a child, few things were more challenging to the spirit than the excruciatingly long hours of the night before Christmas. The concept of having to wait even the slightest moment longer for Santa’s arrival was beyond comprehension. One had to dig deep down …

Not that lentils are going that far out on a limb, but they are a hearty and welcome change of pace …
I have been teaching myself to poach eggs for a while now, finding it to be easier and at the same time harder than I expected. Place an egg in hot water and stir – pretty basic, right? But wait, why is there so much egg white floating around the water now? And how in the world can I get …
I won’t apologize. I LOVE PASTA. Any shape, any sauce, I’ll be happy. It’s been my favorite since I was a little girl; although I have to say I’ve come a long way from overcooked angel hair with Wishbone Italian Dressing (I know, I know, but it’s really not as bad as it sounds!)… Any how, this combo of sausage, …
