socktails: July 2011
http://socktails.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Dining, drinking and cooking. Negotiating between hedonism and health. Sock it to me. Tuesday, July 26, 2011. 1 Fresh, local, prewashed greens (because when it comes to salad I am lazy) from some farm in the Dalles. $5 at New Seasons for a big old bag that lasts me all week. Summer is the only time I like salad so I'm eating it every day. "Salad" in this case equals greens, a few baby carrots and blue cheese dressing. Greens w/ baby carrots. Tuesday, July 19, 2011. Betty Crocker, patron saint of crockpots.

Dining, drinking and cooking. Negotiating between hedonism and health. Sock it to me. Tuesday, September 28, 2010. Dinner: The Most Beautiful Word In The English Language.

Saturday, September 11, 2010. I've been reluctant to accept the coming autumn, but if it provides a suitable environment for sturdy, warming flav...

I like that it is a clean gin and not too loud. Wednesday, March 16, 2011. Sometimes you need comfort food. Yummy, cheap, predictable.

http://socktails.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Dining, drinking and cooking. Negotiating between hedonism and health. Sock it to me. Wednesday, February 24, 2010. French green lentils cooked with garlic and pork neck (I violated my no shopping rule for the neck bones but it was possibly the best 50 cents I ever spent at New Seasons). Served with rapini from like two weeks ago that is miraculously still good, and some saltines left over from when I had swine flu. Tuesday, February 23, 2010. Delicious Thing of the Week: Rice with Butter.

socktails: Chicken Stew!
http://socktails.blogspot.com/2011/07/chicken-stew.html
Dining, drinking and cooking. Negotiating between hedonism and health. Sock it to me. Tuesday, July 19, 2011. Betty Crocker, patron saint of crockpots. I cooked something tonight I've always wanted to, and it was awesome! I made creamy chicken stew from. This Betty Crocker recipe. Which convinced me to start using fresh herbs for everything I can, even though it is inconvenient and expensive, because it is SO worth it. Such fantastic flavor. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

socktails: October 2011

Dining, drinking and cooking. Negotiating between hedonism and health. Sock it to me. Wednesday, October 12, 2011. Apples taste fantastic and I want to eat lots of them because I live in the Northwest. But I have sensitive teeth in the winter and when I eat apples it feels like I am biting into a popsicle wrapped in sand paper. Then the other day I was like, I wonder what will happen if I fry them in butter. Not cold. Not sandpapery. Caramelized and juicy. My new fall obsession. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
