Afritada

This is a tomato sauce-based dish. My father used to make a lot of my favorite dishes, and he was a great cook. The kitchen was his domain. Making this dish reminds me of many happy times. This is my idea of comfort food.

Good Morning Everyone

Let's have breakfast to start the day. I'm enjoying some mini-stuffed plain bagels with cream cheese and a cup of iced coffee as a change of pace from my typical banana and oatmeal breakfast. What breakfast do you have today?

Shrimp Scampi on Pasta al Limone

An excellent weeknight meal is shrimp scampi. With only a few ingredients, many of which you may already have at home, it comes together quickly. Naturally, good shrimp is the key in this situation. Frozen wild-caught or sustainably farmed shrimp are probably fresher than the frozen-then-thawed shrimp available at your neighborhood grocery, unless you have access to a fisherman.

The only thing I like better than talking about food is eating. –John Walters

Happy Birthday to Me

I would like to share a poem I wrote back in high school.

Will You Miss Me?   When my memory has flown to space and my smiles stolen by the clouds, my hairstrands picked for birds' nests and lashes clinging to the seagulls Wings - - - will you miss, my dearest?   Will you remember the song or the dewdrops in my eyes at every dawn? Will you strain for the sound of my voice or look for the sight of my smile; Will you worry when storms will come and I'd be drenched to the bone fleeting cold in space - afraid and all alone?   Or will you let me go And roam the darkness of the night; knowing that tomorrow I will not be there To kiss the morning mist from your eyes.

Ladurée French Macarons

Since February is my birthday month, I've been thinking about the foods I would treat myself to. The French macaron from Ladurée comes to mind as one example. A dream dessert I enjoy taking my time with each bite to let the nuances of each taste and ingredient come through.

I get way too much happiness from good food. –Elizabeth Oliver
