I’ve made enough bowl recipes over the past year to know that most bowls involve numerous elements, and placement and presentation are a significant part of what makes up a bowl. I made one of the recipes from my post Ten to Try tonight, chicken egg roll bowl. It’s essentially…

I had no problem deciding the theme for this post, since we spent the morning at the Palm Beach Zoo. It has probably been 10 years since the last time we went there, and the visit reminded us of what a nice zoo it is. One area of the zoo…

If you’ve been reading the recipes I share, you know that I don’t develop my own recipes. Instead, I start with something from a cookbook and tweak it here and there. Most often, I’m cutting down quantities so that it works for just Ken and me. Leftovers are good, but…

I don’t know about you, but if I’ve eaten cheesecake at lunch, I’m really not interested in eating a lot for dinner. Even though Ken and I had both chosen a salad as our entree at Ocean Grill on Friday, we had decided to make a salad for dinner to…

I promised a post about our lunch in Vero Beach yesterday, because it was a delicious meal in an unusual setting. There aren’t many places where you can look out at the surf while you eat, but that’s a feature of the Ocean Grill. Built in 1941, it’s built on…

When I posted the Ten to Try list of recipes I wanted to make in 2026, I included an eleventh recipe. It was a new dish that I planned to cook to celebrate New Year’s Eve. Plans aren’t always executed, and that one certainly wasn’t. I published my post on…

Food always seems to feature in any holiday or celebration at our house. Valentine’s Day is no different and, as usual, we’ve stretched it out beyond one day. We started out with Friday lunch at Cooper’s Hawk. Well, technically, we started with an early morning walk through Wellington’s equestrian preserve…

Our walk this morning took us through the equestrian preserve, but we didn’t see any horses. So it was time to go through old pictures. This was from one of Covid lockdown era suburban hikes.

Last year, I wrote about how the Super Bowl is always an occasion for us to cook a special meal. This year was just a little different. Although I feel great, I still have three weeks left to my recovery period. Even if I wasn’t trying to limit myself, Ken…
