A couple Mondays ago I went to a booksigning event hosted by our local, independent bookseller, Rainy Day Books. Alton Brown made a stop in KC to talk about his new book, Good Eats 3. Yes, I admit to being a Food TV fan girl. I’ve been to see quite a few food celebs when…
Sweet of the Week #40i & #41i, Red Bean Paste and Pomegranate Muffins
One of the challenge ingredients my friend Deanne suggested this year was red bean paste. I wanted to find a non-traditional way to use red bean paste, something beyond the Asian specialties that incorporate the ingredient, such as mooncakes or Daifuku. Then Suzanne, who is currently on a quinoa kick, sent me this recipe from…
Sweet of the Week #39i, Green Tomato Citrus Marmalade
I received 40 pounds (yes, FORTY pounds!) of green tomatoes from my friend Renee. Last week was a grand canning adventure. In an attempt to ripen a few of the tomatoes, I put a few pounds in a brown paper bag. Several did turn red, enough to can curry ketchup and a salsa, which was…

One plate of beautiful, cinnamon sugar-crusted baked donuts: The fella behind the cash register in the bookstore called over…

Smoked Cheddar Mac ‘n Cheese with Potato Chip Crust
When I was in St. Louis last week, I saw this dish on a buffet. I mentioned it here. It was made with gluten-full pasta and dairy cheese, but it sounded so good and smelled even better! I came home and hit the kitchen, working to create my own variation on this dish based…
I Ate Here: Eating My Way Across St. Louis
I worked in St. Louis last week with my husband (click here to see what we were doing) and had three terrific gluten-free dining experiences I wanted to share with you. There was not a lot of time for me to plan this trip. I’ve been on the road quite a bit the last few…
Sweet of the Week #36i, Jagermeister Cannoli with Pumpkin Filling
When my friend Laurie suggested Jagermeister as an ingredient for this year’s 52 project, I was concerned. I’ve never been a fan and wasn’t sure how to incorporate it. Then it was Autumn, I was getting down to the nitty-gritty of the ingredient list and realized the black licorice-like flavor would go great with pumpkin!…
