As much as I enjoy a trip to Williams Sonoma to stock up on the latest kitchen toys, one thing I’d never purchased, for no particular reason, is a slow-cooker. My generous husband bought me one for Christmas and I must say I don’t know why I’d never recognized the convenience of it before! I’m […]
Read More ›“No soy, gluten or wheat” stated the package of dog treats in the local pet food shop. Don’t get me wrong; I’m thrilled when I find something to give our Daisy, the nearly fifteen year old Weimaraner, as a two or three times per day treat. When I write treat, I mean what is essentially […]

Read More ›Looking for the most perfectly crisp skin and moist meat when you’re preparing what would otherwise be the same old, boring chicken? Think skin. Buying bone-in, skin-on is not only more cost effective, it’ll render a juicier finished product. Remove the bones from some skin-on pastured chicken breasts (plan on one per person; they’re far […]
Read More ›Makes sense to me. I realize that many may cringe at the idea of eating an insect, but try and be a little open minded as you read on. Last Wednesday, in the NY Times, I read an article about two guys who’ve created a company which sells, you guessed it, energy bars using crickets […]
