lunch box cookies
For a short while I had two blogs, this and another called Brown Bag Blues.
I [unofficially] decommissioned that site so I could focus more on this one. But all is not lost, I plan to occasionally bring you boredom-beating brilliance to cure your brown bag blues. A few of my favorite recipes will find a new home, here.
Brown Bag Blues will be a category on this site, dedicated… [more]
A slinky, a birdhouse, a pile of rocks and a plate of cookies.
It is Christmas time. And my [extended] family, probably not unlike others, struggle year upon year about whether to give big gifts or little gifts, pile grab bag gifts or make homemade gifts. Are the gifts getting too expensive? Is the family getting so big that we still buy gifts for everyone? How about an exchange? Couple gifts? Family gifts? No gifts? What does your family do?

I sometimes package them in cellophane with twine, colorful ribbon or handmade labels for a nice hostess or holiday gift. I would tell you they keep well for a week… [more]
Grilled PB&J
Yes, really: grilled (make it like you would a grilled cheese, but put on peanut butter and jelly instead). Think back to your childhood food experiences, and the people that lent their recipes and kitchen craft to your food story. Some good, some bad?
My own food saga includes an incident, when my father took us [kids] fishing. Barely arrived, we gleefully gobbled too much licorice and sipped countless cups… [more]
