My apologies to Elton John, but I couldn’t resist the title. I’m not talking about music (although it’s a great song) or my mental state. No, today’s recipe features blue cheese. For me, blue cheese was an acquired taste, but one that I now love. I would eat blue cheese…

I have always loved flounder. My grandfather was a fisherman, and nobody could cook fish like my grandmother. I grew up in eastern Pennsylvania, and we lived only a mile from my grandparents’ home. My grandfather would go fishing at the New Jersey shore. When he went on a boat…

Even though it’s over a week until we leave for our trip, we’re planning meals to try to use up food that’s in the fridge. As a result, I’ve been getting creative with leftovers. Alice and Dante came for dinner on Sunday, an early celebration of Alice’s birthday. Her dinner…

I love the idea of bowls. It’s a meal in one dish. We’ve been eating bowl meals for a long time: think soups and salads. But the current trend that combines veggies, proteins, a sauce over a base is popular for a reason. It’s a creative way to cook, with…

Sanibel Island is, hands down, our favorite place in Florida. We have travel plans for the summer that don’t include a beach trip, so we decided to add a one-night getaway to Sanibel. We left early this morning and headed straight to the public park at Bowman’s Beach, near the…

I’ve only been to Italy once, but it wasn’t what most people think of when they consider a visit to Italy. We flew into Turin, and spent a week on a walking tour in the Piedmont, based in the little village of Montelupo d’Alba. We had great fun and ate…

It has been one of those weeks when our usual routine has been thrown off kilter. There’s been nothing major, unless you count that hot wire, electrical smell that signals trouble ahead. Because of that, today we’re playing the waiting game, anticipating the delivery of a new washer. Until last…

Continue reading →: Cooking Up Memories
Food is so good at stirring up memories of places, events, even people, and I know that many of my posts mention a particular memory associated with the recipe I’m discussing. This particular recipe brings back an avalanche of memories. I’ve mentioned our time in Prague on more than one…

Continue reading →: A Resurrected Recipe
Today’s post is about the second recipe I mentioned yesterday. Last night’s dinner, using this recipe, was delicious, but putting it together was, well, interesting. I would not normally buy a Taste of Home cookbook. My mother subscribed to the magazine for several years, so I had opportunities to read…
