Sometimes we need to be reminded of the obvious. Remember that fable about the tortoise and the hare? What was the moral of that story? Right, fastest isn’t always best.

Every dog may have its day, but there’s no telling how long that day may be in coming. If that dog happens to be named Bon Appetit’s Garlicky Beans with Feta and Mint, it is my sincere hope that I never see that day in my lifetime. Since going all South Beach in the kitchen, [...]
Holy Mole

Fool me once…shame on you. Fool me twice…won’t get fooled again. Or some such nonsense.

I know I spend too much time in front of the television. I know I spend too much time in front of the television watching cooking shows. I know that when it comes to the kitchen, I don’t know how to share. Spending so many years living by myself, or with SFC overseas, I’ve come [...]
