Today, May 1, 19…oops…2011

This is the Lord’s Day and I will rejoice and be glad in it. I don’t know about you, but nothing says Sunday morning like avocado tacos. Well today, we get a special treat. We have some left over cornish game hen and that will go very well with tacos. I still have some grated […]

Well, it was another late starter today. Got up around 5:30 for a nice cup of coffee. I really need to finish the lawn edging today but have a thing about not starting up any power equipment before 7am. I had a slice of turkey and was off to the edging. The grass hasn’t been […]

Today April 29th 2011

The foodie thing started a little later today than normal so it sent the whole day off on another realm or level as it were. Woke up about 5:30 and had a lovely cup of coffee. A little reading and cross-wording went along with that and then I needed to tend to some laundry and […]

I never thought I would add a date that didn’t start with 19something rather than 20something. I guess I always believed that I would forever be 19something…Anyway, on to the menu of the day. It really doesn’t suck that I live on Maui. I just want to make that perfectly clear, because being a foodie, […]

Brining The Bird

Just when you thought there were no more holiday recipes you could look at – oops I did it again! As far as I am concerned there is no bird like a brined bird. Brining a bird takes little effort, yet adds the most incredible WOW to your meal. Of coarse, for me, once it […]

Kale (Lacinato or Dino) Salad

I was recently in Southern California for a most wonderful visit with family over the Thanksgiving weekend. One of the salads that I made was my very favorite kale salad. There are many wonderful attributes about this salad that I enjoy. First of all it only has 6 ingredients (5 if you leave out the […]

Leek Soup

Well winter is approaching and one of my favorite suppers is a nice bowl of hardy soup – Leek Soup to be exact. The only thing about using leeks is that they are a very dirty vegetable. I guess I would be too if I grew up out of the dirt. They have all those […]
