Celebrating MyPlate Recipes - 5th ed.

May 20, 2013 7:39 pm

Updated: May 20, 2013 8:54 pm

I had several bags of dried fruit in my pantry and wanted to use them. I remember recently when I ate out of my pantry, frig, and freezer for a month without having to do any major grocery shopping. I did not want to let myself have that much again, so I decided to use those fruits in REALLY, … MORE

Ready to start cooking again!

May 20, 2013 6:20 pm

Updated: May 20, 2013 10:50 pm

Today I got back in the kitchen after being on an "open box here" hiatus and let me tell you, I forgot how much fun real cooking was! After resigning from my full time career in March of 2012 as a claims adjuster to be a stay at home mom I vowed to never go back to the "open box here" days.… MORE

March 20, 2013 K&K Menu Planning

May 20, 2013 4:19 pm

It's been three very interesting months (12 weekly menus) of menu planning together. My friend and I are learning many things about weekly circulars, favorite recipes, and how expensive seafood and bacon can be no matter where you are on the East coast! We have seen so far, that most of… MORE

I should have known complications were on my itinerary when my son-in-law questioned my wisdom in booking three connections from Windsor Locks, CT to Burbank, CA. “I’m trying to fly into a closer airport so you don’t have to drive to LAX,” I defended.On a previous trip he had requested I do… MORE

Celebrating "Repurposing" Food

May 17, 2013 10:00 am

Updated: May 20, 2013 7:42 pm

I hear all the time that people (husbands especially) won't eat left-overs. I can't imagine wasting perfectly good food. I just "repurpose" it. I'm guessing that people get burned out eating the same thing day after day. I definitely would! But if you make something brand new out of it, is it… MORE

Enter the Salad

May 14, 2013 11:46 pm

Updated: May 20, 2013 5:26 am

When the heat is on, (we were 100+ already,) it's nice not to heat up the kitchen any more than required to pull a meal together. Fresh produce is once again available at some rather reasonable prices, so of course, the "side salad" has been served here more than once, but I also have many… MORE

Happy Mother's Day - to my Mom

May 12, 2013 12:50 pm

Updated: May 13, 2013 3:50 pm

My mother holding me June 1970. Does she even look like she had a kid my size? I grew up well. When I say that, I just knew how fortunate I was in comparison to other people. I had two intelligent parents, a large home, and never really needed anything. Don't confuse that with being… MORE

Back to School

May 12, 2013 12:20 pm

Updated: May 18, 2013 10:31 pm

Well, I'm back teaching. I have a kindergarten class in Bushwick, Brooklyn. Before the accident I commuted in a car daily, however, I only drive around here, in Cold Spring Harbor and Huntington. This past week I took the LIRR and subway to work. Guess what? I'm finding that I'm less… MORE

After many valiant attempts, Thomas has accepted that he will not be permitted entry into the house. He has, instead, chosen to sleep on the arm of the wicker love seat, the same one Bruno prefers to sleep on. It didn’t strike me as a pet bed when I purchased it, but it’s not the first time I… MORE
