The Omnivore’s Dilemma: A Natural History of Four Meals

<p>scrolling=”no”> I finished reading this book a few weeks ago and lent it to a friend thinking I would get it back fairly quickly and be able to post a review of it. Instead my book has formed a huge waiting list and remains at large. In the hope that my poor dog-eared copy will [...]

Lobster, Lovely Lobster

Hello from MA! I’m in the Boston area for the holiday weekend with Nick so that he can meet my grandparents. Since Nick has never been to New England before we had to take him around and show him the sights. I promise to post more pictures when I get home and have time to [...]

Mushroom Stock becomes Mushroom Rissotto

I’m going to admit it right now, I cannot throw our bones. Some people horde records, some horde figurines, some horde shoes, some horde pets. What do I horde? Animal carcasses. When you look in my freezer you start to wonder if perhaps Jeffery Dahmer has taken up residence in my apartment. It’s crammed top [...]

Fickle Creek Farm

Is meat seasonal? This is the question I had in mind when I set out to Fickle Creek Farm last Sunday. Have you ever considered the seasonality of meat? I never did before I began this project. The one exception is lamb. I have memories from my childhood of going to the grocery store in [...]

BLTs, Brocolli Salad, and Homemade Ice Cream

It is said that stress can cause very serious health problems including insomnia, depression, high blood pressure, and weight gain. Therefore, rather than tell you about all of the disasters that occurred last night and then end with a dramatic finale of success I shall tell you right from the beginning that last night’s dinner [...]

Sliced Egg and Tomato Breakfast

Wow, what a weekend. As some of you may have guessed, Nick’s car is back in commission. This means that I am back in commission for going on food and farm finding adventures. This weekend, with a car at my disposal and Nick stuck in Ft. Worth, TX, was a whirlwind of activity. I did [...]

Strawberry Decadence

Last night I lost my inhibitions with strawberries. Some may think of strawberries as a summer fruit, but here in North Carolina they come out at the end of spring. I missed the farmers’ market this past weekend, but Cam told me that it was strawberries and tomatoes as far as the eye could see. [...]

The Best Damn Dressing in NC

I have mentioned before that I am in love with the winery/vineyard Hanover Park. Not only do they have a great selection of French inspired wines, but they also have the only port that I know of from NC and the only dessert wine that I have ever enjoyed. They also have Signolia’s. Signolia’s is [...]

New Camera

I found out on Friday that Nick is going out of town again this coming weekend. Aside from the fact that I’m always very sad when he leaves on one of these trips I am also sans camera whenever he goes because he brings his to take pictures of mold and wallboard and all sorts [...]
