Fair warning: if you are a person who can’t eat cilantro, you might as well pass on this post. I’m talking about two dishes, both of which include cilantro. I cook so many different recipes that some of them, as Ken says, fall off the radar. We forget about them…

It feels strange now to go almost a week between posts, but we were out of town. We enjoyed visiting our son and his family in Orlando, and then spent a little time at Disney World. It was an opportunity to attend the Epcot Food and Wine Festival, something we’d…

I’m in the mood for autumn. I’m tired of the Florida heat and humidity, and I miss seeing fall colors. But my favorite part of fall can be celebrated no matter what the weather, because it’s the start of food season. Our family has lots of birthdays in the autumn…

What’s something you believe everyone should know. When I was teaching, I used to tell my students that there were three things needed to learn to be successful: to read, to do basic math, and to be able to speak in front of other people. But I think the real…

I have to credit Ken for finding this new recipe. He has always loved perusing cookbooks. He actually has a notebook where he writes down titles and sources for recipes he thinks we should try. This one, though, he found on the web. When he said, “what do you think…

What major historical events do you remember? Not that long ago, a doctor I saw said that she refused to believe I was as old as my chart said. While I was flattered, and most days I don’t feel “old,” the truth is that I’ve been around for a while.…

I love cooking in my tagine. Moroccan food is delicious, but cooking it in an authentic pot makes it extra special. We discovered Moroccan cuisine in the late 70s, when my subscription to the Time-Life Foods of the World cookbook series brought a book devoted to the cooking of Morocco.…

What are you most proud of in your life? Of all the things in my life, I’m most proud of my kids. I sometimes think that’s an awkward thing to say, that I’m taking credit for their accomplishments, but still I’m proud to say that I had a part in…
