Pinch and a Palate: Brazil: Meat Lovin'
http://pinchandapalate.blogspot.com/2011/03/brazil-meat-lovin.html
Pinch and a Palate. Wednesday, March 16, 2011. The only time to eat diet food is while you're waiting for the steak to cook."- Julia Child. We completed "B," with Brazil. And guess what! We even did it correctly; we picked a COUNTRY (Not much room for error. there are no continents starting with B). We just won't go there. When was the last time you were served a juicy, hunk of meat, off a long skewer, table-side at a restaurant? A few fun facts about Brazil:. Slightly smaller than the U.S. So, let's go ...

Pinch and a Palate: January 2011
http://pinchandapalate.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Pinch and a Palate. Monday, January 31, 2011. Pinch and a Palate. There are 26 of them. Children sing a song about them. They form words. We read them, say them, and curse them. ( I also beat my friends in 'Words With Friends' using them). I'm talking about the ALPHABET. So this blog is about refining our palates, one pinch at a time. Each month I will review the "country" we traveled to, the food we ate and the atmosphere we encountered. Luckily for the 2 people reading this blog (I'll force Gre...I am ...

Pinch and a Palate: Muffin Tops to Cake Pops
http://pinchandapalate.blogspot.com/2011/03/muffin-tops-to-cake-pops.html
Pinch and a Palate. Wednesday, March 30, 2011. Muffin Tops to Cake Pops. Or not to challenge? This is what I was asking myself on Ash Wednesday, the start of Lent. I decided to take on the challenge: No "sweets" for 40 days. What was I thinking? No Skittles. No Mambas. No Starburst. I'm crazy. Even now, 20 days later, every time I am in the check out line at the grocery store and see the "deal": buy 2 for 1.00. I am tempted to reach for the ENTIRE box! Well, I love Easter. 2 reasons. I have always been a...

Pinch and a Palate: San Francisco: My Weekend Getaway
http://pinchandapalate.blogspot.com/2011/03/san-francisco-my-weekend-getaway.html
Pinch and a Palate. Thursday, March 10, 2011. San Francisco: My Weekend Getaway. San Francisco. Home to cable cars, Chinatown, Lombard St., Alcatraz, Union Square and the Giants. Lucky for me, these are only a few great attractions to see when visiting San Fran. Why am I lucky? I was able to take a day off of work to spend an extended weekend in the heart of Union Square with my hubbers. I gotta say, we were spoiled. It was a perfect weekend with nothing but blue skies. Union Square: Shopping Central.

Pinch and a Palate: Bacon or Bust
http://pinchandapalate.blogspot.com/2011/02/bacon-or-bust.html
Pinch and a Palate. Sunday, February 27, 2011. Yes, I'll have a non-fat, decaf latte, please. Oh what the hell? Look, make it a full-fat mocha with extra whipped cream. What the hell, put a slice of bacon on it! Dr Frasier Crane (A Quote from Frasier.). What's not to like about bacon, with it's crispy, salty, and fatty deliciousness? Even vegetarians have trouble resisting this meaty treat when they smell it cooking. He 10lbs of bacon in the home refrigerator will do. What about baked goods? 1 teaspoon g...
