Once a year, or so, I go on a big trip. By big I mean international or at least cross-country. This year my trip is to England to see my best friend and her family. I tend to need a lot of preparation for international trips, which means I do not have a lot of [...]

The day after Thanksgiving I tend to bag up some of my left-over turkey and freeze it. I love knowing that I have, in my freezer, the means to make any number of easy weeknight meals. From pot pies to tetrazzini, frozen turkey meat is a good thing to have on hand. This year I [...]

I am exhausted. Project Food Blog has been, and continues to be, intense, I’ve had friends in from out of the country, I have four family birthdays coming up, and I am still working three part-time jobs.
