Usually, my husband posts about our adventures in bread baking on this blog, and the science behind bread baking are much clearer to him. Nevertheless, we made this focaccia together, and somehow I was tasked to write a post about it. Focaccia bread, to me, is a thick, soft, herby, nutty bread with a light… Continue reading My Secret Focaccia Addiction
Blueberry Lemon Muffin Recipe
We do not have any Brioche Plum Tarts today. It wasn’t worth the effort of making brioche to give it away to a few coworkers, and I usually give the majority of my baked goods away. Instead, I offer you blueberry lemon muffins. I usually make muffins once a week to have one ready to… Continue reading Blueberry Lemon Muffin Recipe
Portobello Mushroom Burger Recipe
This house is not a vegetarian household. Meat is my favorite food, and I cannot imagine living without it. However, there are times when I don’t feel like eating meat, and there are times when I want something fresh, light, and vegetarian. Vegetarians, don’t get too excited. After a meal or two, I go back… Continue reading Portobello Mushroom Burger Recipe

Mexican, Healthy Style Pizza
My blogging and life, in general, have been in a funk lately. I am doing things that I do not enjoy (such as soul-sucking work), and quite frankly, it is depressing, and it prevents me from doing much else when I am free.

Pumpkin Pie Muffin Recipe
On Halloween, the Irish carved turnips into jack-o-lanterns instead of pumpkins. This was something I heard on the History channel. My least favorite ingredient is pumpkin. It’s not that I dislike it; it’s just that I don’t love it. However, I have been experimenting more with pumpkin lately, and this made me eager to make… Continue reading Pumpkin Pie Muffin Recipe
Linguine with Fresh Pasta and Clam Sauce
Linguine with clam sauce does not inspire any cute stories or anecdotes. Essentially, this dish is just a combination of my favorite foods – pasta, clams, garlic, and of course, Parmesan cheese. Whenever I crave this, I make it, and I always feel satisfied after eating it. A simple, salty sauce with tons of garlic… Continue reading Linguine with Fresh Pasta and Clam Sauce
A Healthy Shrimp Roll Recipe
Janet selected the recipe this week, and her choice was a Lobster Roll. The only thing that says summer to me is excellent seafood, or more specifically, shellfish. Shellfish is my favorite food – shrimp, lobster, mussels, and my famous littleneck clam. I’ll eat it all, no matter what form you prepare it in. This… Continue reading A Healthy Shrimp Roll Recipe
