  • Roll Camera 1

    What kind of person are you? A persistent theme. I went to Long Island this past weekend. Which is the polite way of saying that I went to a party in the Hamptons. One mustn't shout that too loud, or make that too ob…

  • The Capers Caper

    I felt good about my cooking skills after roasting a chicken the other night, so I decided I was going to cook again. Except I needed a few things, which I was going to pick up on my way home from yoga. I spent most of…

  • Roasters

    A few years ago, Andrew and I were on the Riviera (the French one, not the Redneck one...as I was recently told the Florida Panhandle has come to be known, which I thought was funny. I am sort of in love with the idea o…

  • Three Days...

    I had a craptastic weekend.My husband, who is cavalier -- at best -- about food safety, managed to give himself food poisoning again. This time, mild. But icky and annoying. Mayonaise-based deli products? Big no-no. …

  • The Ham Affliction; Carjacking Redux

    I have a few really gross food passions. They include spiral sliced, Honeybaked Ham and that gross jellied cranberry sauce that maintains the shape of the can even when you glop it out onto a plate. I also have this di…

  • Salle d'Attente

    I was reading this news article this morning about food cravings, and about how people usually crave calorie-dense foods (read: junk foods). I think my favorite quote of the article was, "We have yet to find someone wh…
