For the New Year I hopped on the bandwagon and made a resolution. It’s simple and completely attainable. For 2012 I simply want to be the healthiest me I can be. This simple plan involves me eating more veggies and getting off the couch and exercising. See? Simple.Enter my go-to meal for heaps of veg; Stir-fry. You can put whatever you want in and almost certainly get a healthy feast out. It involves a bit of prep work, but once the cooking begins you’re done before you know it.

It’s time to ring in the New Year and what better way to do so than with a champagne cocktail? Nothing says “It’s a Celebration, Bitches!” quite like a bit of bubbly. Champagne is my favorite potent potable next to vodka. It makes every activity a party. In college I once drank champagne before moving and it can really turn ANYTHING into a party.

With the culinary excesses of Christmas day over, conventional wisdom dictates that it is prudent to spend the days after eating “light” dishes. Zingy Thai salads, wholesome turkey broths, lettuce, grapefruit......you get the idea. Yawn.Conventional wisdom sucks. Once the flood gates of festive overindulgence have been opened, it is folly to close them until after New Year’s Day.

Holidays always make me think of cookies. No matter what holiday it is, there is a cookie cutter and recipe to go with it. My favorite cookies to decorate for any holiday are sugar cookies. While looking through my copy of the Treasury of Home Baking I came across a recipe for some “Yule Tide Namesakes”. It turned out yuletide namesakes were crumbly butter cookies that the author had turned into p...

The biggest dilemma I face when buying a foodie friend a gift is: do I buy something for them to cook with, or something for them to eat?If I’m adding a piece to my friend’s kitchen, then I try to pick a tool that she probably wouldn’t buy for herself – something both useful and a bit ambitious. Two tools that any foodie could use to take their cooking to the next level are a

My first taste of buttered rum was from a roll of Lifesavers in my Christmas stocking as a little girl. Last week during the gingerbread house candy acquisition I bought a box of story book lifesavers; the very same story book that came in my Christmas stocking as child. However, as an adult it only contains 6 rolls of lifesavers instead of 8 and the flavor they eliminated to cut corners costs is my be...

To me, winter has always meant hibernation. Spring and summer is the time to be social - festivals, picnics in the park, barbeques every weekend. Frolicking without a care in the world. As soon as the temperatures drop below zero, I tend to retreat into my flat and don’t really want to come out until March.
