morning toast

My show is open! Then my in-laws were here! Now my mom is in town! Now I can actually spend time in the kitchen again. When you leave for work at 10:00am and get home at midnight six days a week, time for cooking (taking photos in daylight, blogging, and eating) is limited. Most days […]

I’ve been doing a lot of “assembling” lately. My cooking has been limited to batches of whole grains, beans, and breakfast. I spend 10 minutes in the morning combining ingredients mad scientist-style from the fridge, hop in the car, head to work, and come home again at midnight. Truly, it is a glamorous life I […]

Guess who has more greens this week? We’ve had snacks at work lately that tend toward the starchy side, so I’m actually looking forward to some salads for lunch. All sorts of excitement from the CSA this time around! Fancy lettuces! This is what happens when you go to switch out your veggie set up. […]

warming winter salad

I’m in technical rehearsals for a show right now. If you are a theater person, you know what that entails. If not, that means that I work 12+ hours a day 6 days a week for several weeks. Needless to say, it’s challenging. One struggle is finding a way to schedule in time to make […]

It’s been far too long since my last CSA post! Sadly, I now arrive home after sunset which puts a serious cramp in my nice veggie photos. I won’t let shoddy lighting stop me from sharing, however. Unsurprisingly this box was dominated by greens. It’s winter. That’s what grows. It’s not a problem of warmth […]

simple roasted veggies

Well, it’s been quite a month. You’ve all been so generous and supportive and I appreciate it so much. I’ve missed you all, and blogging, but I really needed the break to focus on everything else swirling around me. Since my last post, I’ve returned to balmy, sunny San Diego. The day after I got […]

family update

Thank you to everyone who left such supportive words for my family and me on my last post, by email, and on Twitter. I’m not replying individually, but I really do appreciate all the kindness. My dad passed away a minute after midnight on Tuesday. He was 63. His three younger brothers, two of their […]

absence makes the heart grow fonder

I didn’t mean to drop off the face of the internet. Truly. I couldn’t manage to write posts for the handful of recipes I have to share with you. This is the post I needed to write first, but I wasn’t ready. We moved at the end of summer in 2009 — a beautiful time […]
