All in Cheese
I married someone who loves food as much as I do. When we visited our families this summer we worked through – and smashed – a rather ambitious Must Eat list (pad thai, corn muffins, Anna’s Taqueria super burrito, lobster roll, BBQ chicken calzone, Cape Cod potato chips, blueberry pie, etc. etc.
Rarely do I come across something like this cauliflower tart. It sounds pretty innocent — boring even — but tastes like it knows something you don’t. It is Last-Meal-worthy, the sneaky show-stopper at brunch, the one dish that could convince you that vegetarianism might be tolerable.
It’s exam season again here in Law School Land, which means I need lots of food but don’t have lots of time to make it. We’ve got scrambled eggs down to a science and the Thai restaurant’s number memorized. But sometimes we need something more substantial, something to linger over.
It’s summer in my mind. Sydney is still graciously warm, though the days are distressingly short.
In the few occasions each year I find myself far from my husband, I take full advantage.
Things aren’t as boring here as one would think for midterm season with a 7-month-old crawler in the house.
Every so often a dish comes around that is so perfect, so unbeatable, that I don’t bother trying to make it at home. Usually it’s something that I couldn’t make anyway, like fish and chips or tempura or deep fried anything.
I’ve heard that some pregnant women have specific cravings throughout their pregnancies. In the beginning I had a thing for bananas, but since then it’s been pretty straightforward.
I just spent about 10 minutes trying to come up with a name for this cake. In my own head I call it “Mom’s Cheesecake,” but, after Mom’s Salad and Mom’s Lasagna
You’d think that after having posted 14 different pasta recipes – and making countless more – I’d have the whole thing down. Especially when it comes to a weekday, throw-it-together kind of pasta.
I can’t understand why you’re still here but, since you are, I’m thinking I have a good chance of being forgiven, right? Neglect doesn’t even begin to describe the state of affairs here at The Shortlists
I’m going to be brief today thanks to yesterday’s 5 bottles of wine. And though I should probably not be staring into an abnormally blinding computer screen in my condition,
As you can tell from my recent shortlists, I’ve been making a lot of quiche. Quiche for birthdays, quiche for academics. Cold quiche for lunch, picked at for 5pm snack, warmed quiche for dinner.
Have you ever seen anything like this? In case the picture quality doesn’t render it well enough: deep fried potato doughnuts stuffed with prosciutto and fontina.
