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 [...]
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 [...]
Generally speaking, we don’t use a lot of salad dressing around here, despite the fact that summer finds us consuming an awful lot of salad. Growing up, my family always had several varieties of salad dressing available, but once I married Brian we switched to making our own vinaigrette on a nightly basis to top [...]
One of the reasons I first started cooking was my displeasure with what I was bringing to work for lunch. I found myself wanting a real meal midday. Not a sandwich (sandwiches can be real meals, but the ones I was making weren’t), not a prepackaged freezer meal, not a container of yogurt. A real, [...]
After my weekend realization that fall is here and the onset of a head cold that makes me want to stay in bed all day, there was only one thing I could do: make soup. Luckily I picked up some excellent soup ingredients at the farm last week. I decided to use our CSA leek, [...]

Today she’s sharing some of her favorite summertime recipes. Enjoy! Summertime and the livin’s easy… as long as I have the fans and A/C on full [...]
As part of my blogging break, I’ve asked some of my friends to guest post. This post is from my real life friend, Caleb. Caleb and I went to college together (his wife was my roommate for a year!) and, several years later, we’re living in the same area of the country again. He agreed [...]
Pizza is a frequent meal in our home and I’ve made some pretty good ones since I started seriously cooking almost 3 years ago (including this one). It’s also no secret that I love eggs. This pizza is the best of both worlds and, as a result, one of my new favorites. I was inspired [...]
The other day I invited one of my friends from work and her husband over for dinner. In the course of our Facebook message conversation, the following happened (names have been hidden to protect the innocent): I know better than to serve tofu when we have someone over for the first time, but “he doesn’t [...]
