Hi Bloggies – Happy Friday! I hope everyone survived the work week. I survived my week at home. Right now I am struggling to pick out a new book to read. I have a pile that I am studying: I am still not sure what I am going to read next. I might start The…… Continue reading Food and Books…
I am pretty sure I had a significant lack of protein in my diet yesterday. I was not hungry most of the day and the first thing I ate was a piece of Arnold’s sandwich thin, a bit of spinach and a spread of hummus (breakfast?). Later I had apple slices with a tablespoon of…… Continue reading Breakfast
This morning I woke up and it was snowing. It was the last morning that I could really sleep in and enjoy not being in pain seeing as though my surgery is tomorrow. Sigh. So, I stayed in bed for a while. It was warm, I listened to the quiet falling of the snow on…… Continue reading Egg Sandwich
This morning my mom made breakfast. I walked into the kitchen as my mom was slicing up an apple. At first I thought she was preparing her baked apples or a famous dish, fried apples. I had no idea what was coming. It was the awesome savory apple pancake. This recipe is from the 1970s…… Continue reading Savory Apple Pancake…
This morning I have searched almost my entire house for a cookbook. It is yet to be found. My mom has started searching, too. I am so annoyed and confused. I just cannot figure out where my new Bittman cookbook has walked off to. I have not even made a recipe from it yet! :(…… Continue reading If you were a cookbook, where would you hide?

(When you have stomach problems, folks think that fat is the thing to avoid most -…… Continue reading Tuesday’s Breakfast

It has been nothing to write home about, let me…… Continue reading January 2011
Hi Bloggies: It has been a crazy couple of days around the house – but I am back! I did a lot of cooking over the last couple of days, which was great. I have also been doing a lot of reading – even better! After this post I am devoting myself to the Book…… Continue reading Banana Bread and Barefoot Contessa
Happy Election Day, everyone! I love Election Day. Even though it might be sort of a bad night for progressives, I still love seeing democracy in action. If you have not done so already, go run out and vote! I took the train in today, I had a good half hour of reading on my…… Continue reading Go Out & Vote!
Hi All. I can’t believe I have been in my new place for three mornings already. Saturday morning I went over to Seven Stars to get a ginger biscuit and a cup of coffee because I had no food in the house. Saturday I went to three different grocery stores to start building a “pantry”.…… Continue reading Breakfast in the new place…
