Recently I got an email from the radtastic people at POM Wonderful. Gee, I wonder why they chose NOW to email me? Could it be…*looks up at header* Hehe! They wanted to send me some juice. And who am I to refuse sweet, tangy pomegranate juice?

Mull the Cold Away
Monday, December 28th, 2009In Which I Excitedly Throw Fruit at the Reader
Monday, December 7th, 2009Well hello there. As you can see, I’m still a little…casual about updating the blog. Part of this is due to the ridiculously early darkness that prevents me from getting pictures on weekdays. Part is also due to the general feeling of “blaaahhhh I’m going back to bed” that the early darkness brings on in [...]
Ps & Qs
Wednesday, November 25th, 2009I am totally in love with the Union Square Green Market. Well, not every day. Some days I don’t find anything inspiring and all the tourists and snobs there (standing in my way) just make me angry. But other days… I find exactly what I’ve been looking for. Like a gigantic crate of quince. Or [...]
A Very Tasty Date
Saturday, November 21st, 2009One thing I don’t really bake often is quickbread. I generally wait until I have some bananas or zucchini or something to use up before I start pouring things into loaf pans. And then – even if the results are REALLY good – I don’t bother sharing because they don’t photograph that well and I, [...]
Long Time No Recipe
Monday, November 16th, 2009Hi! It’s been a little while, hasn’t it? I’m terribly sorry about that. I’ve been awfully busy. I finally got an internship! It’s at a very fancy, new-ish little restaurant and I’m enjoying it immensely. Even though it’s only twice a week it is, unfortunately, cutting severely into my free time lately. Not to mention [...]
Muskrat Jelly?
Monday, October 5th, 2009This fall I have been discovering all sorts of wonderful new fruits and vegetables, as well as enjoying the heck out of some older favorites. The grocery downstairs started selling some interesting-looking grapes recently and once I found out what they were and tried some I was definitely hooked.

Sunday, September 27th, 2009The September 2009 Daring Bakers’ challenge was hosted by Steph of A Whisk and a Spoon. She chose the French treat, Vols-au-Vent based on the Puff Pastry recipe by Michel Richard from the cookbook Baking With Julia by Dorie Greenspan.
Makin’ Friends… With Cake!
Wednesday, August 26th, 2009Although I moved to the Very Big City all by myself (well, I brought Bowser, but he’s the kind of company that just makes a racket until I feed him), I manage to not feel lonely most of the time. In fact, less than a week after I got here, I was lucky enough to [...]
Gettin’ Fancy
Saturday, August 22nd, 2009One of the things I love most about living in New York is that I no longer have to drive an hour each way (or at all!) or even hunt for slightly unusual ingredients. Nope, many items that before I could only dream of finding are right in the generally dirt-cheap grocery store downstairs. Heaven, [...]
Teamelon
Friday, July 17th, 2009I was very interested in the quite literally mouth-watering flavor combination I’ve used in this recipe for a while, and for some reason thought it would be best in a cupcake. Though it would still make a fun cupcake, I think the combination of juicy watermelon and strong black tea must reach its fullest potential [...]
