Honey Bees and Locusts. Honey Bees and Locusts shares my obsession with food- from how we get it to how we prepare it. Sunday, April 10, 2011. Okay, I didn't just look at the strawberries Wednesday- I bought one of those brimming buckets of beautiful red berries. Bonus! I also received a half bucket from the Randle Farm vegetable share I'm sharing with someone. Forget planting Sunday; I had berries to play with! Richarde M. Talbot.

http://honeybeesandlocusts.blogspot.com/2011/10/flavorful-chill.html

Honey Bees and Locusts. Honey Bees and Locusts shares my obsession with food- from how we get it to how we prepare it. Sunday, October 2, 2011. I've made ice cream before (I wrote about strawberry ice cream. Back in April), but I've never made an ice cream that was custard-based until today. Yes, it may be a little. Bit more trouble, but the rich flavor is worth the effort. Vanilla Bean Custard Ice Cream. 2 cups 2% milk. 2 cups whipping cream. 1 cup granulated sugar, divided. 5 large egg yolks. 4 Pour th...

http://honeybeesandlocusts.blogspot.com/2012/08/gmos-californias-prop-37-and-your-right.html

Honey Bees and Locusts. Honey Bees and Locusts shares my obsession with food- from how we get it to how we prepare it. Thursday, August 2, 2012. GMO's, California's Prop 37, and Your Right to Know. Top GMO crops in the US are corn, soy, cotton, and sugar beets. Canada recently petitioned the government to introduce a genetically engineered apple that doesn't brown after being sliced open. Really? If you listen to Big Ag's scientists, particularly those associated with Dow Chemical and Monsanto, they'll t...

Honey Bees and Locusts: Sweet Potato and Black Bean Empanadas

http://honeybeesandlocusts.blogspot.com/2011/09/sweet-potato-and-black-bean-empanadas.html

Honey Bees and Locusts. Honey Bees and Locusts shares my obsession with food- from how we get it to how we prepare it. Thursday, September 29, 2011. Sweet Potato and Black Bean Empanadas. Who started the ugly rumor that vegetarian fare is boring? Maybe they were force-fed unseasoned, monochromatic meals or a litany of canned bland "vegetables". I'm here to politely, but strenuously disagree! Empanadas are perfect fare for parties and outdoor picnics because they are so portable and easy to eat. If I had ...

Honey Bees and Locusts. Honey Bees and Locusts shares my obsession with food- from how we get it to how we prepare it. Thursday, September 22, 2011. What would Julia Do? Would Julia ever use a crock pot? My mother and grandmother were both solid cooks, albeit not adventurous cooks–well, there was that time mom made chili and dumplings. Ugh! 2 Large potatoes, sliced. 2 med carrots, sliced. 1 parsnip, sliced. 1 10-ounce pkg. frozen peas. 1/2 onion, sliced. 2 stalks celery, sliced. 1 can tomato soup. The La...

Honey Bees and Locusts: Smitten with a French Chef

http://honeybeesandlocusts.blogspot.com/2011/09/smitten-with-french-chef.html

Honey Bees and Locusts. Honey Bees and Locusts shares my obsession with food- from how we get it to how we prepare it. Friday, September 23, 2011. Smitten with a French Chef. I confess: I'm in love with Julia Child (1912-2004). I had read Julie and Julia. By Julie Powell last year, but I wasn't really in love with her then. I did put the DVD series The French Chef. On my Netflix cue, but I didn't start watching them until this year. A week or so ago, I pulled My Life in France. Of the PBS videos where se...

I catch myself doing it all the time. This recipe is just such a bit of creative cookery, inspired by Moroccan tangine, though I don't think any Moroccan would really approve, but it is delicious! Tagine with Butternut Squash. Served on a bed of whole wheat Green onion couscous–recipe follows). 1 Tablespoon olive oil.

Honey Bees and Locusts: Pomme d'amour

http://honeybeesandlocusts.blogspot.com/2011/09/pomme-damour.html

Honey Bees and Locusts. Honey Bees and Locusts shares my obsession with food- from how we get it to how we prepare it. Friday, September 16, 2011. A dear friend of mine shared this recipe with me a few years back; it was a recipe given to her by her mother. You can keep this simple by buying a prepared pie crust, or you can make your own crust, which is really easier than you might think. I make a crust from Deborah Madison's Vegetarian Suppers. 1 9-inch unbaked pastry shell. 3 Tablespoons minced shallot.
