http://adventuresinweekdaycooking.blogspot.com/2011/03/red-wine-cake-red-wine.html
This blog has moved! CLICK HERE TO VISIT THE NEW BLOG. Tuesday, March 22, 2011. Red Wine Cake Red Wine. Some of you may have noticed I went a bit awol this week, even after teasing to post recipes for both Brown Butter and Sage Mashed Potatoes with Sharp Cheddar and a really yummy citrus-y beet salad. Those are still to come, up until now I had no time! And why did I have no time? You can find the cake recipe right here. I was concerned with only unsweetened cocoa called for that it would not be chocolat...

Things to do while wearing an apron...: The First "Before"
http://adventuresinweekdaycooking.blogspot.com/2012/02/first-before.html
This blog has moved! CLICK HERE TO VISIT THE NEW BLOG. Tuesday, February 21, 2012. While going through some old emails, I stumbled upon the photos I took when first viewing my current apartment. When my roommates and I saw this apartment we knew it was the one for us, but clearly we had an imagination. We saw how great this apartment could be, even if it looked pretty bad at that time. How bad was it? I thought you guys might want to see a couple of these before shots next to how the rooms look now.

Things to do while wearing an apron...: Um, Bacon Jam?
http://adventuresinweekdaycooking.blogspot.com/2011/03/um-bacon-jam.html
This blog has moved! CLICK HERE TO VISIT THE NEW BLOG. Friday, March 4, 2011. Um, Bacon Jam? What would you eat it with? The recipe suggested it on bread, which seems a little obvious but boring. I decided not only would I make this odd sounding jam, I would also experiment with a few different uses for it. And as if it were meant to be, every single ingredient is one I have sitting on hand at home in my pantry (well, the bacon is the fridge.) How could I not give this a try? Slow Cooker Bacon Jam. 5 Com...

Things to do while wearing an apron...: Of curtains and chairs, and function over form
http://adventuresinweekdaycooking.blogspot.com/2011/03/of-curtains-and-chairs-and-function.html
This blog has moved! CLICK HERE TO VISIT THE NEW BLOG. Tuesday, March 22, 2011. Of curtains and chairs, and function over form. Have you seen these curtains from ikea? Ikea stockholm blad panels. I can't help but think these would look pretty nice in my living room, replacing the solid colored gold panels there currently. I am hesitant only because of the not so nice $60 per pair price tag, so for now I am looking for similar cheaper alternatives. I love the idea of something patterned, though. Where I b...

Our foyer has no windows. On the other side of the foyer I built an entry way bench, added a great thrift store print (of a town in Vermont where my family used to camp! You can also see the entrance in to the living room, and the small hall that leads to my bedroom on the left. And the living room:. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Things to do while wearing an apron...: The livingroom again
http://adventuresinweekdaycooking.blogspot.com/2011/03/livingroom-again.html
This blog has moved! CLICK HERE TO VISIT THE NEW BLOG. Wednesday, March 30, 2011. The wheels in my head have been turning. I have been thinking about the living room again. In this post. I professed to finding it a bit dark and cluttered with too much furniture, but I felt there was nothing I could do, as the space functions well, is comfortable, and I share it with multiple other people who may not want much to change. So I have been brainstorming small changes that would make a big visual impact. Far o...

Things to do while wearing an apron...: Food Photography
http://adventuresinweekdaycooking.blogspot.com/2012/04/food-photography.html
This blog has moved! CLICK HERE TO VISIT THE NEW BLOG. Monday, April 23, 2012. I have been working lately on improving my food photography. Nothing is too impressive, but I have been pretty happy with some of my efforts lately. Here are a couple food photographs I took while in Portland recently. Beer samplers at Rogue Brewery. Employees at Beast plate the first two courses of a six course meal. Course #2 at Beast, which included steak tar tar, quail egg, and several different pates. How this blog began.

This blog has moved! CLICK HERE TO VISIT THE NEW BLOG. Wednesday, March 28, 2012. Simple Peanut Sesame Noodles. I used to make this all the time. I saw a similar recipe on a TV show once when I first moved away from home. I think it might have been TLC's Home Made Simple. I didn't know how to cook very many things. But I could make this. And it was yummy. I like to toss a bunch of cilantro on top so that it looks green and healthy. It isn't healthy. But I like to fool myself. 1 cup peanut butter. If you ...
