	Nights of Wine and Roses (and healthy bread) by Kimberly Nights of Wine and Roses (and healthy bread)Last night it was raining again, and neither of us really felt like a big meal. I was craving bread, which we've been trying to avoid lately, so I gave in and threw together a wholegrain maple-oat quickbread.I love our porch. It has a clear roof on it, so we can sit on our porch and stay dry…	1 vote 278 views
	Bleu-Green Salad by Kimberly Bleu-Green SaladO happy day! At long last, I have learned to love avocado.I hated it for years. Hated the texture mostly, but the flavor didn't much do it for me either. I could tolerate avocados once I moved to the west coast, where they are fresh and abundant, but I still didn't really care for them. I don't even like…	1 vote 294 views
	Pass (the charoset) Over (to me!) by Kimberly Pass (the charoset) Over (to me!)We're getting ready for Passover here at our place, holding our first seder in our own house. I'm putting together a secular haggadah since our guests are a mixed bag of Jews and friends-of-Jews (and we are, ourselves, an interfaith couple). I still need to scrub the house clean and clear all the…	1 vote 288 views
	Hot Chocolate! by Kimberly Everybody's got a hobby. My dad grows peppers. Not just your nice little bell peppers and jalapenos; he's got some habaneros, but that's not enough. He likes to grow the ultra-hot, record-setting peppers you can't buy at the store - Red Savina, Devil's Tongue, and his pride and joy, the world's hottest pepper, the Bhut Jolokia.He's in…	1 vote 529 views
	Freezer Pies by Kimberly Chicken Pot PieIt's a slow week, this downtime between Christmas and New Year's. A lot of people are off work, and while the bustle of the holidays is mostly over, it's still cold outside. This is a good time to fill up the freezer with quick, easy dinners that can go directly from the freezer to the oven for a home-cooked meal…	2 votes 423 views
	Grape Jelly: A Photo Essay by Kimberly As you know, I've been canning like Ma Ingalls this summer. I did a bit last year and I've done a little canning before, but this summer I've been especially busy (considering we're eating it all just as fast as I can can it, which kind of misses the point of canning but whatever). It only started to feel like real old-fashioned…	2 votes 923 views
	Great Dinner and a Yummy Tart! by Kimberly Great Dinner and a Yummy Tart!Our dinner last night went really well! I made a Moroccan shepherd's pie loaded down with tofu, cauliflower, broccoli, carrots, parsnips, fresh tomatoes, dried cherries, and pumpkin seeds, spiced with cumin and coriander, topped with orangey mashed sweet potatoes and mashed white potatoes marbled together…	2 votes 485 views
	Apples! by Kimberly Apples!So very many apples!Sunday was a perfect autumn day. The trees are all scarlet and gold, the weather was sunny with a blustery chilly wind, and we went to the farmer's market for greens and winter squashes. After that we made a little trip up to the north end of town; I'd had word through my sources (ahem) that a man was…	2 votes 1052 views
	Yes, I'm still canning. by Kimberly Well, we didn't get to the apples yesterday, though Keith did painstakingly wash all 60 pounds of them. He also did most of the work in peeling five pounds of garlic, which took quite awhile and left our fingers sore but fragrant.Meanwhile, I put up 13 jars of maple pumpkin butter, some with hazelnuts and some without......and then I…	2 votes 444 views
	Cranberry-Apple Chutney by Kimberly Cranberry-Apple ChutneyEverybody cancel your plans for Thanksgiving and Christmas! Y'all have to come to my house and have some of this chutney I came up with last night. I started with this recipe for plain apple chutney, but then I got inspired... I almost wish I ate pork because it seems like it would go so well with bacon or ham;…	2 votes 578 views
