Congratulations on your successful homebrew venture! We've been brewing beer (three to six cases at a time) on a regular basis for nearly 10 years - it costs so much less than storebought and taste...

I love it! I'm a huge believer in chest freezers (dare I admit we have five here on the farm - and yet I still need to make more space for the homegrown grass-fed steer and three lambs I'm picking ...

Matilda, You said: What makes this different from someone who spends $3000 on a pair of shoes? This smacks of conspicuous consumption, foodie style. Wh...

Reading these comments from all of you who are willing to pay for 'high dollar' real eggs (and how much you appreciate and enjoy them) is literally bringing tears to my eyes. THANK YOU!

Sorry if this posts twice. It showed up right after ilovebutter's comment and then disappeared. Thanks for writing this, Dana (and your eggs are beautiful!). As someone who rais...

Thanks for writing this, Dana (and your eggs are beautiful!). As someone who raises animals on a natural (organic as much as we can) farm, it's been really interesting reading the comments.

Uh oh. This sounds like the kind of thing I could get really addicted to - especially since I've been meaning to make a sour cream raisin pie for years. And I love recipes that call for a 9x13 pan ...

Hi Emma, What a neat place! Sounds like a really fun day. I love all the educational stuff they're doing. The Audubon Society only had a bird sanctuary near where I grew up - yet I still beca...

Very inspiring indeed! Thanks for rounding up these wonderful kitchens - and for including all the links. Especially love #9 and #10. I've been going through some of my prized vintage ...

I'm really into knives - I think there are 20 on my magnetic strip and more in drawers. I'd been wanting to try a santoku knife but was afraid to invest very much in one in case I didn't like it. O...

bocadelperro, LOLOLOL! Thanks for that laugh-which really was out loud! P.S. Dana, thank you, too. : )

Interesting. I wonder who is producing their new line of flours. I do know that several months ago - when the price of flour was literally going up every few weeks - I stocked up on several bags of...

I've been hooked on Trader Joe's Uncrystallized Candied Ginger which sells for around $3 a bag. It's great in recipes like these

PIE! And you combined my two favorite kinds - apple and blackberry. Way too many mouthwatering photos, though, Faith. At least for a girl who's miles and miles from any pie - or blackberries! Thoug...

Great tips and beautiful photos. Thanks, Sara Kate! Of course now all I can think about is pie. : )

I use our homebrewed Irish Pale Ale to make my beyond easy beer bread. Five minutes of work and you'll ha...

We had our version of these two nights ago! Though we just call them salmon patties. I grew up in Northern California and had never had them (or canned salmon in any form for that matter) until I h...

This looks wonderful! I love the combination of flavors - and that you can have blue cheese for dessert. : )

I like to make this easy, salsa-like (no sugar!) green tomato relish. In fact I see a batch i...

Gorgeous. Love the windows, too. And I want all those wonderful green bowls! (I have a bowl, ahem, problem.)
