Blue Cheese Stuffed Burgers

It was a steamy, hot day today. It was one of those days where you just don’t know what to do with yourself. The kids and I ran errands, took a walk (what was I thinking?!?) and ran through the sprinkler. Because I wanted to. Finally, we gave in and collapsed onto the couch with [...]

It was a rare occasion the other day: I headed off to the local organic farmers market without any children in tow. That meant I could meander around and take things slow while I shopped for vegetables for dinner, something for lunch and a few things to add to an extra special gift basket I [...]

Last week, we relaxed by the Connecticut shoreline. It’s something I have done summer after summer since I was a baby. And it’s something that I hope Will looks back on with fond memories when he’s an adult, just like I do.
Some things have changed since childhood though. For instance, whereas my grandmother used to [...]
Ginger -Soy Pork Chops, mmmm

Let’s get something clear – I don’t like pork chops. I purchased a large quantity when I was developing recipes for the cookbook and have several left over. I was dreading eating them, but knew I couldn’t put it off forever (much as I would like to!). But then I saw a recipe at Kalyn’s [...]

So, since the blood orange season is pretty much over and my attempts at making a blood orange vinaigrette will surely take several more attempts, I decided to set that aside for now and use my last blood orange for a special marinade for grilled chicken.
See, Kalyn over at Kalyn’s Kitchen has been grilling up [...]
Hot and Crusty: What more could you ask for?

I love my Le Creuset grill (actually, it’s a griddle…I know, but they essentially perform the same function, right?).
So far, it’s griddled asparagus for me (which I ate all of … alone) and made a TON of sandwiches. Loving the sandwiches (with the grill press, of course).
This is one of my favorites so [...]
Ooooh, love the asparagus

I have a secret. It’s actually not much of a secret so much as a discloser. A brutally honest discloser. But we’ll get to that in a moment.

::Sigh::
Isn’t it lovely? It’s red. That beautiful, deep shade of red – like a perfect, shiny apple. And it’s cast iron . . . mmm, cast iron. Better yet, Le Creuset cast iron . . . in red. Love the red.
I received the pan – this lovely grill pan – as a Christmas gift. (The [...]
