Chicken! I'm chicken to grill chicken!

If you proofed the loaves in a brotform basket, the pretty pattern from the basket would be on the bottom, hence the need to flip. Plus it's easier to get them out of the basket that way. I don't...

I like my strawberry shortcake simple. Plain strawberries, homemade whip cream with just a touch of sugar. And the most important part - store bought refrigerator biscuits from the ...

Hmm...Those days were all kind of a blur. I don't know what liquor I bought for the first time, but I drank plenty of it.

I would invent a game called "hide and speak" where the speakers are hidden throughout the house, playing at a very low volume. All players have to find them. OK that would be really dorky. But ...

It's not quite cherry time around here (Washington) yet. We had some unseasonably late snow this spring, which didn't do any favors for our cherry crop. I just hope to have a big bag to snack from...

I can tell you what I don't like. That would be mushroom smell, lingering bacon smell, and cooked cabbage smell. Otherwise bread is my favorite. I made a focaccia with red grapes on ...

I'm a KitchenAid gal myself... I love it. Really, no complaints, so I guess I have no reason to switch to any other brand. What type of mixer is the black one on the right? That look...

Very interesting article! My husband works at a family-run fruit market outside of Seattle, which I blog for. Organic vs. conventional comes up all the time, on the blog and in person.
