Is Foodie a Four Letter Word?

May 31, 2007

This evening I participated in a Madison area “foodie” panel. It was a lot of fun, I really enjoyed meeting people of like minds, and I hope to continue to connect with all of them in the future, in one way or another. My thanks to the moderators: Eating in Madison from A to Z. [...]

Carbonara with Pancetta, Peas and Ramps

May 20, 2007

The day started out dismally, with a cold breeze and even colder termperatures. I had previously had plans of making a light, grilled meal comprised of spring vegetables and grilled chicken, but as the day moved forward I couldn’t shake the cold feeling in my bones and in search of comfort food I went.

Turkeys and Tomatoes

May 11, 2007

After years and years, we’ve upgraded our grill (but more about that in another entry…). Our new charcoal grill has a rotisserie attachment, and I’ve been eager to experiment with it. We have never cooked this way before, so it’s a new thing! Doesn’t this turkey look pretty? Doesn’t it look perfect? Doesn’t it look [...]

The Big Debate

May 9, 2007

This entry doesn’t have much to do with food or cooking, I’m afraid. I’ve become somewhat frustrated with the platform that this blog runs on.

Great Taste of the Midwest

May 7, 2007

A quick perusal of my blog stats tell me that many of you are hitting this blog right about now searching for tickets to the Great Taste of the Midwest. Pardon me for a moment while I rant. I will never again purchase tickets to another Great Taste of the Midwest. I won’t even use [...]

Newly launched blog… and Madison Farmers’ Markets
