Just signed up. Excited for it to start :)

This one sounds yummy I will definitely be trying it soon!

We do a seder potluck every year and this year I'm responsible for bringing something sweet. I'm not much of a baker but hopefully I can do better than store bought macaroons!

I'm going to be moving during the cure this year (just bought a house!) but I'll probably at least start it since it was so much fun last year. Someone mentioned tips on how to organize recipes, I ...

I started a list of things I want to do before I turn 29 so they're sort of my resolutions. ...

I wish we did more traditional puerto rican cooking at thanksgiving. I'm not so keen on our thanksgiving feast, but christmas dinner is always divine. (mmm pernil) I need to find a way to gently co...

My CSA (in Minnesota) does frozen winter shares too. I've done summer shares for two years now and this year I'm trying out the frozen share. Can't wait to reach into the freezer in the middle of w...

I'm moving to a place with a yard (a yard! I'm so excited) and these seem like perfect speakers to take outside and enjoy nature to my own soundtrack.

I probably have about 20 now but the number slowly edges up and up. I just love them and I also read them as literature. Often in bed, more often curled up on the couch. Never taken them to the tub...

I've fallen really far behind, I'm still enjoying the posts and I loved the pantry posts, but I really need to get my act together and try to catch up!

I finally managed to do half of the assignment for this week! I went the easy route and roasted some sweet potatoes. This week has been tough for me time wise but I really am trying to keep up. I l...

I have to admit I've been slacking, I had an event all weekend so wasn't really able to cook and this week so far has been too busy :( I think I'm going to roast some veggies because I don't have t...

I just finished my "cupboard cooking" assignment. I made breakfast for my boy. Vietnamese omelets with all sorts of stuff I dug out of my cupboards/freezer. They turned out a bit salty (I forgot to...

Hrm good thoughts, thanks renata. I also just re-read Alton Brown's piece on pots/pans (in the back of his I'm just here for the food book) and he has a 12-inch lodge that he likes, so maybe I'll j...

You totally read my mind. One thing I severely lack are both a good saute pan and a chef's knife. (in part because I've been reading Anthony Bourdain's book and he talks about how all you really ne...

I have this bad habit of either eating chips and salsa or mac and cheese when I'm feeling lazy. At least they're organic though. I also am a big fan of pita or crackers and hummus for ...

I've finally caught up! (well I still need to post my pictures from last week, but they are at work :P) I spent today scrubbing my kitchen and trying to organize a little. I still have a ways to go...

I am so behind too! And a bit embarrassed to post my "befores" I haven't been home a lot lately and my fridge and cupboards are embarrassingly empty! (and super unorganzied) oh well. I will try to ...

I have built-ins like those too, although as you can see they aren't nearly as organized as the ones above! I hav...

I'm excited to start. My kitchen is in need of a good cure! Plus I didn't quite make it through the fall cure so hopefully keeping to one room will make it a bit easier so I can actually follow thr...
