Drowning in tomatoes, zucchini, and basil? Then make this!! It’s a lazy end-of-summer tart, with a flavor that’s so fresh, bright, and full, you’ll forget how easy it was to make. I know this sounds too good to be true, but trust me — after my first bite, I was kind of in love.
We’ve all been there. Living in that apartment that has layers of other people’s lives on it. The not quite clean, or clean-able windowsills, the layers of dust in the basement that no one has laid a broom to in eons, the smudgy doorhandles. These things could be overlooked when noticed (or not) from a …
This recipe is always a winner at our house. Its a salad with steak and blue cheese (yum!). Not the healthiest of salads I’ll admit, but the combination of spicy meat, creamy blue cheese and crisp veggies makes my taste buds really happy.

Those of us who haven’t bred are considered one of those sub-families and so it’s my sister, Claudia, Tom and I who are responsible …
So, here’s the situation: prolonged heat wave over the entire east coast. Tom told me this morning that the weather had gone funky. Climate patterns, instead of moving from west to east, as is the norm and something we’ve come to rely on, are moving the other way. If that’s not creepy enough, here are …
So, two days before Memorial Day, we finished watching Season 10 of Top Chef. After a crazy semester of school, getting our house ship shape to put on the market, and training for a half marathon, I felt my mojo for cooking had waned. I slapped together meals just so I could put much needed …
It was quite a month. We moved out of our home of 6 years, crammed everything into a 10×15′ storage unit, closed on the home sale, camped out at my PhD adviser’s house for 2 weeks while we were homeless, flew to Ohio for Tom’s family reunion, flew back, and then had that said storage …
