« Previous EntriesMy heart belongs… to mangoes.
Tuesday, February 27th, 2007I love mangoes.
I will eat mangoes until I am doubled over with stomach pain because mangoes, I truly believe, prove there is a higher power that loves us and wants us to have things that taste good.
In fact, I’ll share a secret with you. In the spring and summer, if you are at the Union […]
Make Your Life Gezellig With Little Flower Designs
Monday, February 26th, 2007It’s Monday. Even though I overslept this morning, I’m still wiped out from last night’s Oscar revelry. It’s snowing. Sort of.
All I want to do today is browse through the delightful Little Flower Designs and imagine a world in which I would be okay with spending $40 on a sweet little bowl my husband would […]
5 facts about me.
Saturday, February 24th, 2007Well, Rachel of Food Maven posted five facts about herself, and then asked me to do the same. I gotta admit, I am lousy at coming up with things to say about myself. A couple months ago, when Kate of Accidental Hedonist asked me to write a paragraph or two of biographical info for my […]
Yatta!
Friday, February 23rd, 2007I did it! I cooked fish — my final food frontier! Here’s a somewhat crappy photo to prove it!
That is a piece of sesame-(semi)crusted tilapia. It was great; the fish was firm and flaky, and the sesame seeds took on a lovely toasty flavor.
The best part, though? The wasabi-ponzu sauce. Sweet sassy molassy — I’m […]

Friday, February 23rd, 2007Is that a picture of:
chocolate pot de creme?
chocolate mousse?
chocolate pudding?

I now enter Phase II of Learn to Bake.
Thursday, February 22nd, 2007When I set my “learn to bake” resolution, I wanted to be able to bake a cake, a pie crust, and a not-cake-or-pie dessert. I’m pretty comfortable with cakes now, having made a two-layer birthday cake as well as vegan cupcakes recently, and I think I’m about ready to learn the intricacies of pie […]

Make Your Life Gezellig with Skookum Handmade
Tuesday, February 20th, 2007I sat down to write this post mostly as a way to show off this cutting board I just bought.
Nice, isn’t it?
It’s from Skookum Handmade, a brand-new Etsy shop. In an effort to make this a real post (and not just me bragging about latest Etsy score), I asked Justin, its proprietor and a Seattle-area […]
Well, so much for that idea.
Monday, February 19th, 2007I started the year thinking it would be cool to change the headline above the graphic every so often to something timely and funny. January’s said 2007 is gonna be all about the gezellig. February was my secret ingredient is ketchup.
But in the last week or so, a couple blogs have linked here, referring to […]
And now, an outtake from this week’s Accidental Hedonist post.
Sunday, February 18th, 2007This week, my friend Kate told me, “I have this whole thing about being able to tell how well I am eating by the condition of my compost container.”
Well, Kate, I tried really hard to finesse that into this week’s Accidental Hedonist post about composting —because I think it’s brilliant and true — but I […]
