I wasn’t prepared for the flood of emotions when I opened the box from Borough Furnace this week. Winning something so well made is overwhelming. Cooking has been part of my life since I was very young, at my grandmothers’ side, learning everything I could about anything she did. Her chicken and dumplings got…

End of the World Baking
No, not that kind of baking. Get your head out of the gutter. I had some requests for my recipes from the other night so I thought I would post them for you guys. We made sure to stay close to home the last few days just out of concern for the crazies exercising their…
My Nerdy Kitchen
Living in a 100 year old tiny house is difficult. There is always something breaking, not working or needing updating. While I have advocated down sizing before (and still do) it can pose quite a problem for a cook. There are many things I don’t need in other rooms of the house but the kitchen…

59 Degrees
WOOT! Sorry, just slightly excited at the dip in temperature considering that we have had oppressive, too close to the equator type hotness going on for so long (which of course was followed by 40 days and 40 nights of rain). I am happy to grab a sweatshirt and cook something yummy. Speaking of which,…
