Holiday Gift #5: Give Me Light - (USA)
I'm a little behind in doing the Holiday Gift suggestion each day. Chalk it up to lots of freelance clients wanting my incomparable prose, lots of holiday visitors, lots of cooking, and lots of eating. (I'm scarfing down some Banana Pudding as I catch up on blogging. My bad.) New Label: Happy Holidays So it looks as if these Holiday Gift tips will come at random times instead of once a day. Because of this, I've added a new label, Happy Holidays, so you can find them all together if you're in

Chianti Pot Roast with Glazed Parsnips and Carrots - (USA)
Wow the holidays have started. Thanksgiving down, Christmas on deck. Time off from the restaurant…good. We are taking the four day weekend off for Thanksgiving. It’s always bittersweet to close the restaurant since the expenses still continue, power bills, leases, insurance, bills, etc, but there is no revenue coming in. Fortunately we have 10 caterings this upcoming week for the start of the holiday season which will allow us to make up for being closed the two days. Ultimately both Nancy

Try Camping In An RV This Year by Bob BaxterLooking back in history we see that RV camping has been something enjoyed by many people for a great many years. It is a great way for a family to spend some great quality time together having fun. The memories and stories of these camping trips will be told for years to come.Many think that the Pioneers could be considered one of the first RVers around. I am not sure how much of this can be agreed with as they had no choice at the time. They

Been A Hard Three Days - (USA)
I pulled off Thanksgiving. Food came out great, but I had to keep going back to bed. I’m freakin’ tired. Truth be told, I think I’m dying, but things are feeling better now. I’m just worn out. This is not about my HIV… those little buggers always gift me with pneumonia when they are acting up. This ain’t Hep-C, I know what hepatitis feels like. It is something so simple that it is pathetic. I am bleeding way too much everyday. It comes from when a “friend” drugged me and then spent 8 hours ra

Gettin’ in the Gratitude Groove November 29th, 2008 Thanksgiving rocked this year, Yoginis. Seriously good times, like I’ve never had before. First things first, I did all the cooking for the first time in my life. I’ve never felt compelled to do the complete, crazy, table-full of over-abundant goodness. I’ve preferred to eat with family or neighbors… but of course, being in Rome, what’s a girl to do? Invite some guests and do it yourself, that’s what. After hours of consultation with my D

One More Try - (USA)
I don’t come from a world of wealth or poverty, I am somewhere in the middle. I don’t come from a world of happy, peaceful family life or the modern day traumatic and struggling family either. My world has always been pretty much in the middle, what most would call normal. The day my house was repossessed was one of the worst days of my life, not in the material sense but in the real life wake up call that I had nowhere to go when I edged off the driveway. Two of my four children sat in the ca

Now that Black Friday is over, are you ready for Cyber Monday - (USA)
Why does anyone fall for the concept of Black Friday and then waits in line for hours only to trample a store employee to death when they can shop in the comfort of their own homes all year round. Shoppers wait in line outside Neiman Marcus at 5a.m Here are some of the sales we think are worth checking out. You can still get the best deals.

Thanksgiving ‘08: Cathy vs. Tradition - (USA)

So by the time this Thanksgiving battle was lost and won, at about 11:00 pm, November 27, 2008, I’d like to think that me and Tradition had made amends. And through the process, both gained a greater appreciation for one another. Here are some of the reasons why: look closer and this “pecan pie” is filled with a melange of cranberries, raisins and orange zest in a dark syrupy custard when Tradition gave

self-catering - (USA)
It's been a while since I've had a simple 'they call it this/we call it that' post. Some of you can think of this as a reward for sitting through all the grammar and html tables. It's an old request, but a seasonal one. Mrs Redboots wrote months ago to ask: From http://www.ruthdoanmacdougall.com/more/doan-sisters.html "She had once stayed in a rented cottage in Surrey, and she remembered the odd term the British use for this arrangement: self-catering ." Is it odd? And what do Americ

Sunday Morning Relaxing - (USA)
I love this song, it’s got such a funky beat to it that everytime I hear it I get the urge to find a powder blue pantsuit and wear it. Last night’s dinner is still on my mind. I made a big pot of beans, seasoned them with some lemon pepper, and tossed in some left over ham pieces. Then I sauteed half an onion and 2 garlic cloves in a lot of butter and dumped them in the pot, butter and all. It was so good I’m drooling just thinking about it. Low cost home cookin’, that’s the ticket. And whi

David Joachim’s Roasted Root Vegetable Recipe - (USA)
I love cooking root vegetables around the holidays. They’re at the peak of ripeness, come in a variety of colors and flavors, and make the perfect side dish. Some root vegetables, like potatoes, store energy as starch. Others, like carrots and turnips, store their energy as sugar. Either way, as root vegetables roast, their starch breaks down into sugar, and the sugar combines with proteins and browns. At the same time, aromatic components in the vegetables get concentrated, resulti
