Fresh Cut Cook: January 2011
http://freshcutcook.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 15, 2011. Fresh Cut Cook Makes Fresh Start.At Small Packages! Where have I been, you ask? In the land of limbo, between having a computer and having that computer die on me. It's been nice, taking a break from blogging and the endless photographing of meals and the pressure to post on a semi-regular basis. I've called my new blog 'Small Packages'. Because that's how all the good things come, right? So hopefully, you'll follow me there. Http:/ www.mysmallpackages.blogspot.com/.

Fresh Cut Cook: I Will Never Wear Hemp Pants, And Accidentally Ethical Salmon Cakes
http://freshcutcook.blogspot.com/2010/10/i-will-never-wear-hemp-pants-and.html
Tuesday, October 5, 2010. I Will Never Wear Hemp Pants, And Accidentally Ethical Salmon Cakes. I never thought I would be the sort of person to purchase a $7 tin of salmon. I've walked past these tins before in the grocery store and as I'd reach past them to get to my $1.09 mercury-laden, Thailand-produced, environmentally cruel tuna, I would think to myself "What kind of sucker buys this stuff? And now I am one of them. They exclaim. Their kids wear garments made from reconstituted plastic bags wove...

Fresh Cut Cook: Oh Canada, And A Coconut-Noodle Soup
http://freshcutcook.blogspot.com/2010/11/oh-canada-and-coconut-noodle-soup.html
Tuesday, November 2, 2010. Oh Canada, And A Coconut-Noodle Soup. At one of my birthday parties, held in our lovely, cozy home that had been purchased for a song, gutted and entirely rebuilt by my father and grandfather, one of my little classmates entered the house, looked around with an imperious air and said "But where is the. My parents forever after joked about the location of the 'east wing.'. And so I brought Shredded Wheat cereal. Yes. I did. Maybe it's all about where you end up. 2 tbsp fish sauce.

Fresh Cut Cook: January 2010
http://freshcutcook.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 24, 2010. I've always been a big fan of breakfast. I love the way this morning meal is so interpretive depending on the region. In England, I ate massive fry-ups; fried bread, sausage, eggs. In France, I devoured pain au. And fruit and yogurt. In Belgium, I feasted on fresh bread with meat and cheese, and a bowl of muesli. I found this recipe on one of my favourite sites, Eat Make Read. 2 cups rolled oats (I use the quick cooking, organic kind). 1 cup Rice Krispies. 1 cup All Bran original.

Fresh Cut Cook: October 2010
http://freshcutcook.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 29, 2010. Let's Do Lunch Again And Again, And A Spinach-Blue Cheese-Leek Tart. Oh My Lanta. The number of times we debate something, no matter how inane, whether it's the pronunciation of 'archipelago', or the what year Koko, the signing gorilla, was born, and he says to me, eyebrows raised with disbelief "Are you. And then wields that yellow-paged, leather-bound juggernaut of know-it-all-itis at me, just to. He's ready for the day. Wow You know what? Because I do plenty of things that an...

Fresh Cut Cook: Kitchen Scraps, And A 'Just Make Me' Broccoli Salad
http://freshcutcook.blogspot.com/2010/10/kitchen-scraps-and-just-make-me.html
Thursday, October 7, 2010. Kitchen Scraps, And A 'Just Make Me' Broccoli Salad. You know, for all those times I think deep, profoundly interesting things, there are perhaps an equivalent, or maybe even greater number of blanks being fired aimlessly in my think-box. Like how much I hate our low-flow toilet. No matter how many times I flush the cat droppings down the toilet, one little renegade nugget always bobs back up into the bowl. Every time. Are foreheads the new nipple? Oh WOW. Did that put. I don't...

Fresh Cut Cook: Technical Difficulties - Please Stand By
http://freshcutcook.blogspot.com/2010/10/technical-difficulties-please-stand-by.html
Saturday, October 23, 2010. Technical Difficulties - Please Stand By. If you're wondering where I am, well, I'm still here. I'm just computerless. At the moment, save for the precious minutes I steal on Husband's computer. My piece of crap Dell (never, ever buy a Dell computer) has been slowly dying on me; first the sound went, and now I can't even open Internet Explorer. Sigh We're working on it. I'll have a post up in the next few days, so check back! October 25, 2010 at 11:26 AM. Eat me, delicious.

Fresh Cut Cook: March 2010
http://freshcutcook.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 28, 2010. The other day, I had lunch with my father, after which we went book store browsing in the Annex. My father lovingly proceeded to buy me a stack of books that had been on my Amazon wish list for ages (Thanks, Dad! Seeing them waiting for me in their haphazard pile compels me to make the time to curl up with a mug of tea and meet the characters who will fill my head for the next few weeks. Or is it simply impatience, a 'been there, done that' sort of attitude? The other night, I was...

Fresh Cut Cook: August 2010
http://freshcutcook.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 30, 2010. Flap Your Premature Bingo Wings With Pride, And A Tomato Sauce Recipe. I was crushed. Boring? Our identity as a couple was thrown into immediate crisis. How could we be boring? We love doing stuff! But all this came into rather serious doubt. Maybe being boring is like being crazy; everyone but you knows it. So it's official then. We're either exceptionally boring, old-before-their-time thirtysomethings, or we're exceptionally youthful, attractive and fun octogenarians. Because t...

Fresh Cut Cook: June 2010
http://freshcutcook.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 30, 2010. Are We There Yet? And A Carrot Salad. My new issue of 'Whole Living' magazine, formerly known as 'Body Soul' came in the mail yesterday. I made myself some tea, ate a slice of the banana bread I'd made in the morning, and flipped through it, feasting on the gorgeous photography and of course, those seductively simple recipes. When are we ever good enough, just as we are? Do we constantly have to chase our better selves? Do I have to be everything, have. All the ingredients went ...
