Last month I participated for the first time of a monthly net-event called “Tried and Tasted“, in which food bloggers pick recipes from one particular blog to cook and post their comments.
The blog that took the center stage was Kevin’s “Closet Cooking“. You can see the roundup of 21 of his recipes by visiting Hema’s site, “Salt to Taste”, cliking here.
We are having a White Christmas unlike any other! Historic record snowfall for our state…
Outside our home, things looked quite amazing…
Inside, they were not that bad either…. 😉
Recipes will be available in the near future, I promise!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Remember World Bread Day? You can see the breads baked all over the world by going to Zorra’s website. They are all organized by countries, in four different groups. Lots of wonderful loaves of bread!
Check it out here….
I arrived home to see a package on my doorstep…
THIS is what I got:
Thomas Keller has written several amazing books, such as Bouchon, The French Laundry, and Under Pressure. Once in a blue moon we indulge in a three-star restaurant, but I have no inclination to produce gastronomical masterpieces at home. I admire people who do it, and I followed Carol’s adventures as she cooked her way through The French Laundry, and watch her ongoing work through Alinea. Amazing stuff!
But when I learned that Thomas Keller was publishing a cookbook with “family-style” recipes from his restaurant Ad Hoc, I pre-ordered it. Now I’m looking forward to cooking from it. As with all my new acquisitions, I’m in the phase of carrying the book with me from sofa to bed, bed to kitchen table, back to the sofa, while reading, savoring, dreaming. Like a kid in a candy store, I’m still trying to decide which recipe will be THE FIRST.
Life is good… 😉
In our home, dogs are NOT allowed to climb on the couch. EVER.
Not sure how this happened. 😉
