The Vegan Scoop
Attending the Boston Wine Expo isn’t just about the wine. Sure, there are hundreds of wineries that attend, but there are also quite a few food vendors there as well. So, in addition to getting to sample many different wines, you also get to sample some interesting foods. On the second day of the expo, I got to sample the most delicious treat of the weekend.
While meandering through the aisles at the expo that day, I discovered Wheeler’s Black Label Vegan Ice Cream. It was…
Summer in a Wrap
It’s cold.
Does that summarize winter in New England well enough? I could write a lengthy paragraph about all of the annoying parts of winter here, but there’s really no need to exert that much effort. I think my simple sentence conveys my thoughts well enough.
Most nights I try to erase the chilliness of winter with hot meals that consist of soups that have simmered on the stove all afternoon or a roast that braised in the oven all day long. However, sometimes I take a different approach to try and make the season of ice and snow disappear– a little…
Review: Legal Seafood Test Kitchen, Boston, MA
When my wife and I go out for dinner, we want to try new things and explore the world of food and drink. So, when something promotes itself as a “test kitchen”, we expect risk taking by the chefs/owners. Sadly, we experienced the wrong type of adventure when we went to the Legal Seafood Test Kitchen in Boston this past weekend.
We were in Boston for the 19th annual Boston Wine Expo,* and after a Saturday filled with great wine, smart foodie conversation, and tantalizing cooking demonstrations, we decided to go to the Legal Seafood Test Kitchen for a…

I always have been so obsessed with frozen treats! It doesn’t matter the season, as long as I have my hubby to snuggle up with. For me there is no better dessert. Cool, sweet, fruity and refreshing! Deelish!

Balsamic Roasted Veggies
For the second Tapas Night of 2010 I decided to give it a Greek theme. My original plan was to serve lamb sausage. However, when I checked the freezer I discovered that we had lamb sausage, but it was bulk sausage. A scoop of sausage just isn’t as appealing as one that is served as a link or slice. So, I decided to save the lamb sausage for a different meal.
Luckily our meat freezer was pretty full after a December trip to our favorite butcher. Within seconds of being disappointed by the lamb sausage, I found the perfect replacement: chicken…
Cheddar-Chenin Blanc Fondue
Ski season has arrived in New Hampshire and with that comes weekly ski lessons. Our older son participates in these lessons, and so to extend his time skiing, we offered to drive him and three friends every Friday. Of course, driving four teens to skiing means that a parent needs to stay there. My husband graciously has offered to be the transportation, which gives me Friday afternoon and evening alone with our eleven year old daughter, Sam.
This past Friday was our first girls’ night of the ski season. Our original plan was to do a little shopping, eat dinner at…
Fabulous French Onion Soup
For our family Christmas celebration on Saturday, my husband made a beef roast. Even though we had a dozen people for dinner, there was plenty of leftover beef. So, what better to do in the winter than make soup?
For the kids I made a simple veggie-beef-noodle soup. For us that sounded way too bland and boring. And as their afternoons were filled with practices and they needed to eat earlier than us, it was the perfect reason to make two pots of soup. With no wrinkled nose ingredients to avoid, the obvious choice was French onion soup.
I have made French…
