LINK: TAE

This is not a food blog, but a bit of nepotism. My cousin is in Oxford right now and has started a blog about her adventures there. In sonnet form, no less.

She is a super-genius, you guys. She is smarter than I am, and I don't say that often, because I like to think I am smarter than pretty much everyone, except for maybe Einstein and Thomas Pynchon and my husband. Not only that, but she looks like a supermodel and is getting her MBA. In other words, she should totally go on The Apprentice. She even kind of looks like Ivanka, so I know she would win. And you totally want to marry her now. I'll accept your offers, but can't guarantee anything.

So go to her blog: TAE.

Wow... thanks for the link and all the nice commentary. And my mom thanks you for trying to pimp me out. Your blog is very interesting, but it is making me hungry and you have to spend a lot of money to get good food around here...

INFO: How to Dry Tomatoes

It's the end of summer and tomatoes are everywhere. Lovely round red tomatoes and multi-colored lumpy misshapen heirloom tomatoes and cute little cherry and grape tomatoes and oblong, flavorful roma tomatoes. And along with the tomatoes, tomato recipes abound. Capreses and salads and sauces and sandwiches--it seems impossible sometimes to find a dish that DOESN'T have tomatoes in some form. So what's a girl to do when tomatoes are everywhere and ... she hates tomatoes? Why, dry the tomatoes of course! Dried tomatoes are so very different than fresh tomatoes. So different as to be a different fruit altogether. And I like dried tomatoes. Dried tomatoes are sweeter and that green flavor I don't like so much seems to get baked right out, replaced by a rich warmth that is much tastier to my palate. Also the chewy, meaty texture is more pleasing to me than the weird firm-yet-squishy texture of even a tomato grown with all the tender loving care of its farmer. Generally I purc...

ABOUT THIS BLOG

I've been evaluating my blog and have realized that, while I have lots of nifty posts, I don't really have a good overall explanation of what exactly this blog is all about, and what one can expect to find here. So I'm creating this post and will link to it in the sidebar for anyone who's interested. I am not a professional chef. I have not been cooking for years. I am not an expert who is going to make beautiful and amazing and complicated dishes to "wow" you. I am, in fact, quite the opposite. I am a total beginner. I've always lived in places with miniscule kitchens and concerned myself with schoolwork and studying and working and not paid the least bit of attention to what I was eating every day. And that's what this blog is all about. It's about me learning where my food comes from, how to make it properly, and how to enjoy it to the utmost. It's no fun to learn by myself, so I started the blog to keep track of what I learn, kind of like a...
