It’s rabbit season! No! It’s duck season!
The Hartford Courant had some unfamiliar recipes this week that featured (gulp) rabbit. Sorry, but I am just not that adventurous. Let the little hopping fur balls be pets, not dinner. Check out my write up on Paper Palate (now defunct) for more details, and a link to the article in case that happens to [...]
STRAWBERRIES!!!!!
It’s strawberries time – they are ripe for pickin’ and at their sweetest now. I cannot wait to get out into the fields and get some for myself. I can already picture all the delights I will make with them – strawberry shortcakes, roulades, etc.
Obsessed no more.
Once upon a time, I was among the fast food obsessed. I could name the best menu items for at least a half dozen establishments in the fast realm and I could detail the differences between French fries from Burger King and McDonalds, down to subtle tastes. That’s changed. I don’t want to be that [...]
Healthy eating for kids.
If you have children, you know it can be a challenge raising them to eat healthy. But the rewards of doing so are so great that it is worth every second, without a doubt (and your future son and daughter in laws will surely thank you again and again). For some tips on raising healthy [...]
A great talk . . .
Last week I had the pleasure of talking to author Chris Fisk, whose new book Sneaky Vegetables is due out in last June. She sounded so fun and enthusiastic, something I love to hear. After years of talking to victim’s parents, criminals and their lawyers, it’s great to talk to someone about something so life [...]

A Shameful Display
I happened to learn about Horseman of the Esophogus when checking in at the Hartford Courant yesterday and wrote up a brief entry about it for Paper Palate (EDITED TO ADD: The Paper Palate site no longer exists. 6/2/2011). The whole idea of competitive eating eludes me. Why would you want to stuff your face [...]
Musings
For a long time I have anxiously waited for my little blog to appear on Kiplog. I sent in my link and description eons ago and thought it would happen sooner or later. It hasn’t. So I guess I will stop checking there, and release my bated breath. And who knows, some day maybe I [...]
Check it out . . .
A few new links for my adoring readers. Oh, I can’t even say that without cracking up. In any case, I submitted my rainbow stirfry to All Recipes a while back and I just found it that it was accepted. Look here. Also, I have a new piece up on Paper Palate all about knives. [...]
And the verdict is…
I was pleasantly surprised to learn that 70% of you were able to correctly identify CSAs in my recent poll as Community Supported Agriculture. To learn more about this awesome program and to find one in your area, check out my new article on FitFare (EDITED TO ADD: The Fit Fare website no longer exists. [...]
