Bobby Flay on Cooking at Home, Sandwiches and More
Yesterday, I woke up in New York to a beautiful blue sky and a day filled with fabulous adventure … and sandwiches. Do you like sandwiches? I do. But not plain, slapped together ones. They need to be built with precision and care. They need to be well-thought out and considered. So, when the PR [...]
Making Pesto the Old-Fashioned Way
Basil. Garlic. Olive oil. Pine nuts. Parmesan. These are the makings of a fabulous, wonderful, delicious pesto — and believe me, I adore pesto. It’s fabulous on so many things: pasta, sandwiches, baked potatoes, whatever. When it comes to making pesto, I have always been a food processor girl. Seriously. Every pesto I have ever [...]
Holiday Project Idea: Drop In & Decorate
Sometimes, it feels like I blink and a whole month has spun by. That’s what October felt like. It was a whirlwind of trips to New Hampshire and the Cape, along with birthdays, work projects and Halloween. I fear that I might blink again soon and have November speed past me too. Before it does [...]
What I Did Today … Craftbar and Starbucks Via
Let’s take a break from cooking for just one day. I really want to tell you about what I did today, but I will forewarn you — I was invited to this event, a product launch. It’s not something that I generally talk about on this blog, but it was a great event at a [...]
Top Chef New York: Week Four
I need to get this off my chest: Ariane’s reaction to criticism during the Quick Fire challenge was pitiful. The flicked head and rolled eyes really got under my skin. Fast. She needs to step up or get out. If last season was the season of gratuitous cursing, this season is the season of bad [...]

Top Chef Chicago: The Last Word
Last night, I live blogged the finale of Top Chef Chicago. I know, I know — should have told you all that I was going to do that! But, it was sort of on a whim. Once thing I did find with live blogging was that there wasn’t a whole lot of time to insert [...]
Live Blogging The Top Chef Chicago Finale
Here we go, folks. I decided that in honor of the final episode, I would try something I have never done before: live blogging . . . Warning, if you haven’t seen the episode, this will be a spoiler.
Top Chef New York: Week 2
Wow, where to begin? A lot of the dishes served this episode seemed to fail. And in some of the cases, the chefs knew the dishes weren’t that good before they served them. Why send a not-so-good dish out? And what’s with all the dated plating and presentation? I would think that as Top Chef [...]
