Blueberry Peach CobblerYes, this is made with whole wheat flour and it was fantastic.Especially with a large scoop of vanilla ice cream that [...]
Ton ‘O Bricks
After a late, filling breakfast I went to church with my parents and got busy in the kitchen. I wasn’t very hungry around my typical lunch time so I went about business as usual. Mid-way through cleaning the kitchen, hunger hit me like a ton of bricks. I needed food fast. Luckily I was already [...]
Easily Influenced

I am currently levitating. Every part of this meal was essential. The heat of the Chana Masala was eloquently balanced by the [...]

Warm Goat Cheese and Beet Salad
Bread, cheese and wine. These are a few of my favorite things.I don’t think I can adequately describe how happy dinner made me tonight. It all started with a bottle of wine and a dream. When my dad came to visit last week he gave me a bottle of Russian Jack Sauvignon Blanc. I had [...]
