Post Punk Kitchen has recently become one of my favorite recipe blogs. Everything Isa Chandra Moskowitz (co-author of Veganomicon) cooks up sounds delicious and I find myself saving almost everything she posts. One recipe especially piqued my interest: vegan sausage. In general, I’m fairly anti-fake meat. I don’t mind the occasional tofu or tempeh, and [...]
It’s the last day of January, which means winter is almost over, there’s a break from school on the horizon, and I’m already a good 2 weeks behind on my organizational calendar. Today was unseasonably warm (apparently it got up around 50 degrees!), so Brian and I went for a walk. It felt like spring, [...]
Last fall I discovered the Whole Grain Council’s “grain of the month” calendar and will be trying out a new grain each month, just because I needed to add another goal to my life. I was really glad when I saw that January’s grain was oats. I’m familiar with oats. I like oats. I already [...]
It wasn’t so much that I couldn’t find the circular cookie cutter that I usually use to make biscuits, it was that I was too lazy to look. So, the other night when it was time for me to cut out the biscuits I was making to go with the Tuscan Bean Soup with Shrimp [...]
If I purchase any animal protein besides dairy or eggs, it’s usually seafood. We don’t eat a lot of it, but it makes an appearance on our table at least monthly. I always struggle to come up with original recipes, but seafood is especially difficult. I don’t have that much experience with it and I [...]
By far, my favorite part of my job is my students. They never cease to make me smile. But sometimes, my students and I really don’t get each other. I don’t understand their obsession with Mountain Dew (of all the sodas, really?) or their love of scary movies. Similarly, they can’t compute the fact that [...]
As I mentioned a few months ago, I’ve been trying to make food during the weekend that Brian and I can take to school as a hot lunch. My favorite recipes make a lot of food with little effort and require few dishes or utensils at work. Last week I made Curried Brown Rice with [...]
We’re a couple months into our winter CSA share now and the produce is still great. We’re consuming more squash and potatoes than the average person, but I’m totally okay with that. It’s been fun coming up with new ways to enjoy them, though there’s still a lot of roasted squash and potato hash happening. [...]
And blogoversary week continues…check out Monday’s kick off post and Wednesday’s giveaway, if you missed them. Originally, I was going to share all of my favorite posts, but then I realized that I had a lot of favorites for several different reasons. So, because Relishments is primarily a food blog, I decided to limit this [...]
In September, I discovered the Whole Grain Council’s “grain of the month” calendar and have been trying out a new grain each month since then, just because I needed to add another goal to my life. December’s Grain of the Month was buckwheat, a grain which I have very little experience with. I checked out [...]
