http://leftycooks.blogspot.com/2010/08/oven-fried-salt-and-vinegar-crips.html
Cooking for the Great Leap Forward. I like to eat. I try cook something everyday. I'm not fancy and I try to make it quick. Wednesday, August 4, 2010. Oven fried salt and vinegar crips.

Salt and vinegar oven crips. 4 c or so of white vinegar. 5-6 medium sized waxy potatoes (we used red ones). Olive oil (for tossing). Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Be sure t...

Cooking for the Great Leap Forward: December 2010
http://leftycooks.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Cooking for the Great Leap Forward. I like to eat. I try cook something everyday. I'm not fancy and I try to make it quick. Saturday, December 18, 2010. Slightly more healthy banana oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. And they turned out pretty good, even with the substitutions. This includes some mashed banana in lieu of butter, and the banana's sweetness substituting a lot of sugar. The end result is really something in between a not too sweet but soft scone and a cookie. 1 stick of butter (softened).

Cooking for the Great Leap Forward. I like to eat. I try cook something everyday. I'm not fancy and I try to make it quick. Monday, April 26, 2010. Two weekends ago, before my brother's wedding and the recent pork-a-thalon in Chicago. With Anne and friends, I had some work friends over for a vegan tapas dinner thing. We made loads of food, but I only ended up taking a few pictures as things got a bit crazy. I promised our guests the recipes, but I never posted them! Spanish mushrooms (Blokey's favorite).

Chocolate Chip Banana Zucchini Bread – Shoots and Roots
https://shootsandroots.wordpress.com/2011/08/25/chocolate-chip-banana-zucchini-bread
A Collection of Food and Photography. Chocolate Chip Banana Zucchini Bread. August 25, 2011. August 25, 2011. Gone are the roasts, the casseroles, the planned dinnertime meal. Without Tom I have lost the desire to cook anything that takes much effort. Being 3.5 hours away at work doesn’t compare to Jennifer Perillo’s tragedy. But I understand what she meant in her latest blog post. Cauldron, and how to stir it. All you need is a chant.” I broke out my best hag voice. 8220;Double, double toil and trouble;.

Cooking for the Great Leap Forward. I like to eat. I try cook something everyday. I'm not fancy and I try to make it quick. Saturday, August 14, 2010. When I took a German class back in the day, we read a recipe in the "Kochen" chapter for zuccinni fritters. I forget the word for fritters now- it could be "Kuchen" (which is commonly used to for all cake like things- like potato pancakes are Kartoffel Kuchen) or it could be Schmalzgebackenes. Lower-fat zucchini fritters (adapted from Spark Recipes. Warm u...

Oops, I've been away from the blog-osphere for a long time, especially the food one. But I've been cooking, just nothing special. However, it's that magical, allergy, thunderstorm, and flood-filled time of the year- end of term! The title of this post comes from the 1989 Batman movie. 2 Tbs of corn starch. Coarse...
