Our culinary diary
When we first started this blog, we found and gathered many prospective recipes on Pinterest. Now, we save so many delicious prospects, like this one, on Instagram. Who knows where we'll be finding inspiration in the next five years!? This recipe for mazesoba caught our eye there, and we're glad it did! Thanks Genius Eatss!... Continue Reading →
Circling back to September's Cookbook Club selection for this one. I knew I wanted to make this as soon as we opened the book, but just hadn't gotten to it yet. I'm glad we finally did! This was easy to bring together and used ingredients that we already had on hand. (Although we may keep... Continue Reading →
This was our first recipe attempt from Parwana, by Durkhanai Ayubi, May's Cookbook Club selection. This is another cookbook we just knew we were going to love! It may end up at the top of the favorites list with Falastin and Stir Frying to the Sky's Edge. We bookmarked half of the book to try... Continue Reading →
Happy Mac n Cheese Day! When we realized that was today, we couldn't pass up the opportunity! We love mac n cheese around here - from the classic Kraft blue box to the most upscale restaurant variation. The dish we made tonight falls somewhere in the middle. The pasta did come from a box -...

There are some dishes that just scream a certain season to me. A big pot of chili or anything involving a gourd in the fall. Hearty, meat-heavy dishes that are roasted or stewed or crockpot-ed in the winter. But summer... Probably the most seasonally iconic dishes are summer ones! There are just so many -...

Awhile back, I (probably via Pinterest let's be honest) came across Seasons & Suppers. This food blog, or "online food and cooking diary," as its author describes it, is honestly what I aspire for our blog to be. First off, we like to think of our site as our own personal culinary diary as well. Secondly, her... Continue Reading →
Tonight we decided to take a brief detour from our now tried and true basic pasta recipe. And by brief detour, I mean that we did the exact same thing that we always do, with the addition of some ground turmeric for a new flavor and color. Not the most bold and daring detour if...

I'm learning things today. That's one of the best things about writing this blog - because I want to actually have something to say in my post, I frequently dig deeper into the history or other technical details of recipes where I might not have otherwise. Take today's recipe... I knew I wanted to make... Continue Reading →
Number 10 on our Culinary Bucket List states, "Figure out how the Italians’ make pasta cacio e pepe a million times better than we can. Also, master that twirling the pasta at the table trick." If you've ever been to Rome, you know what I'm talking about. Literally ever Roman restaurant we set foot in served... Continue Reading →
As you can tell, we enjoy braised chicken. We make it more often than the handful of posts on our blog. It's simple, tasty, and always makes leftovers for lunches or a quick dinner later in the week. I think kimchi scares a lot of people... fermented cabbage, anyone? It's alive and continues to ferment... Continue Reading →
