Renaissance Kitchen: June 2010
http://renaissancekitchen.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 28, 2010. A farewell with deli meat. Like Mortadella and spicy Ham- and with that in mind, we decided on a dinner of Italian-style sandwiches, with wax peppers, pepperoncinis and olives to snack on the side. Between big bites of food and a few cold beers to wash it all down. We chatted about the World Cup, laughed until our stomachs hurt, and discussed my upcoming trip to Europe (two more days! Promise you lots and lots of photographs of food, and stories of my adventures along the way.

Renaissance Kitchen: January 2011
http://renaissancekitchen.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 19, 2011. Just letting you know that Renaissance Kitchen has been moved to http:/ thruthekeyhole.tumblr.com! You can find all my current recipes as well as photos, etc! Thanks for checking it out. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I like to cook and eat food, and sometimes I even write about it. When I'm not doing those things, you can find me looking through the lens of my camera. I'm also a firm believer that laughter makes everything better, along with wine, butter, and chocolate.

Renaissance Kitchen: I've got my head in the clouds.
http://renaissancekitchen.blogspot.com/2010/06/ive-got-my-head-in-clouds.html
Friday, June 25, 2010. I've got my head in the clouds. I would like to say that I stopped here, but no, I just had. To make homemade ice cream. I just had. To place a saucepan with cream and sugar on the stove top, and then apparently, when I walked away for approximately 30 seconds, it just had. To bubble and boil over and spill onto the stove. Where it instantly spread and crackled into a thin layer of burnt crisp. Well Wasn't that fun? One teaspoon or so freshly chopped thyme. I like to cook and eat f...

Renaissance Kitchen: keeping summer around.
http://renaissancekitchen.blogspot.com/2010/09/keeping-summer-around.html
Friday, September 17, 2010. Summer came late this year. But then the end of August came, and things began to change. It's not that summer had done it on purpose, making us wait all that time. Maybe she had just forgotten for awhile, or overslept. Either way, we forgave her, asking only in return that she might stay around, for just a little while longer. Good In my opinion, it puts the "J" in Jam- and somehow I think you'll agree. Vanilla Bean Pear Jam. Yields about 5 half-pint jars. Mix sugar and proper...

Renaissance Kitchen: May 2010
http://renaissancekitchen.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 31, 2010. This oatmeal tastes good? Yes folks, it can be done. Happy Memorial Day everyone. Unfortunately for all you grillers out there, this will not. Be a holiday to remember. I know, that's the point of Memorial Day- to drink beer and grill lots and lots of meat, right? But guess what. It's rainy and foggy and colddddd here. So grillers, all the best luck to you today- I hope you at least get to use your stove-top griddle. Ah well, c'est la vie. Taste good. Here goes. I guess I have to ad...

Renaissance Kitchen: September 2010
http://renaissancekitchen.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 19, 2010. What links us together. Whenever I'm having a bad day, I cook. It doesn't even matter if it something simple, like making the vinaigrette for a salad from scratch; sometimes all it really takes is just the mindless act of chopping ingredients on a cutting board, or stirring a pot of something bubbling away at the stove, that makes me smile. Like me, both of my brothers share a love for food. My older brother, Steve, was a restaurant chef for many years, and my younger brot...

Renaissance Kitchen: Wishful Thinking.
http://renaissancekitchen.blogspot.com/2010/06/wishful-thinking.html
Friday, June 25, 2010. There are so many reasons why I love Italian food, and it's not just because my boyfriend is Italian. Even as a young girl, I always had a special connection to the cuisine. I think at one point I even wished my own mother (hey Mom! Would turn into an Italian one, so I could rush home from school everyday to find her standing at the stove, stirring a big pot of tomato sauce. Yields enough sauce for about 1 pound of pasta, or serves 4. Because the more patience and love you give it,...
