I used to seriously dislike radishes. They are so sneaky – pretty, alluring red and then, BAM, hot-peppery-cabbage taste. However, before you go nodding your head with the “uh, huh, sista,” consider a radish that’s not been sitting in a bag for two weeks waiting for some unsuspecting person who loves colorful food to put […]

The column runs today. What’s for dinner? Parmesan-Crusted Chicken Breasts with Caper and Kalamata Olive Pan Sauce; Olive Oil Mashed Potatoes; and Toasted Pinenut and Garlic Spinach. I made this meal for my mom and dad when they were last out. Mom liked it because it felt light and Dad liked it because it was […]
OR a Pineapple Salsa. I couldn’t decide. Should it be a round, full, rich Brandy Cream Sauce or a Pineapple Salsa bursting with fresh, bright and healthy? I couldn’t decide so I made both. The rub is a snap to make but oh, so elegant. Then all you need to decide is do you go […]

For those who know me, but don’t live with me, it sometimes comes as a shock to find that I love football and specifically, the Patriots. While our guys didn’t play as well as we know they can for the AFC Championship this year… and while I’m still adjusting to the fact that my Sundays […]

Whether it’s for the holidays or just normal meal times, how families split the work load of getting dinner on the table is as varied as the domiciles in which they reside. How does your family split the work load? – and ordering pizza doesn’t count! In our family if one cooks, the others clean. […]

Wow! The response to the Orange Marmalade Pound Cake post was serious. Ya’ll really like your citrus, huh? Thanks for all the emails and comments. It’s always fun to chat with everyone. Today my Maine Ingredient column ran and it’s on all different kinds of baked brie. Who doesn’t love that? My favorite (today at […]

I can’t decide. Do I like Thanksgiving dinner better or the leftover dinner the next day? Nope, still can’t decide. The good thing is that I don’t have to. We had both. Now that both the big meal and the equally good leftover meal are in the past, if you haven’t already taken those bones […]

My dad has a saying, ‘Once you get a good thing, why change it?’ This saying applies to hats, jackets, coats, flashlights… and the list goes on. Electronics, of course, are excepted from this adage. Which means that when a hat wears out after 20 years of use, he looks for a new one just […]

Now that the freezer has had its figurative meltdown, our refrigerator is full to bursting with condiments and raw ingredients such as jams, chutneys, cocktail sauce and large bunches of kale, several squash, whole beets and chicken livers marinating in port. Not exactly what anyone wants to bring in their lunch to school, something I’ve […]
