I had a sad little sweet red pepper wrinkling away in the vegetable drawer, and recently unearthed my blender, so I decided to try making some red pepper sauce to have with pasta.

Why the House Smells Like a Pizzeria, Part II
Monday, January 12th, 2009Back to the Kitchen
Friday, January 9th, 2009I managed to make something yummy to eat last night! I think I’m pretty much back to normal, and am now not afraid of yogurt…because it turns out to not have been the yogurt. Because now Z is sick. So I guess I caught something somehow…that didn’t have any symptoms at all up until the [...]
More Suited to a Summer Meal…
Saturday, January 3rd, 2009I’ve got some really fun confections I’m planning in the coming week, so I’ll get this one out of the way. I just finished the leftovers of this for dinner tonight, over soba noodles, though I ate the rest of it with rice. I think I just prefer noodles to rice these days when it [...]
Yet More Learning By Doing
Thursday, November 13th, 2008I’m having a bit of writer’s block as far as a creative entry, but at least I made something delicious for dinner! Well, we didn’t eat JUST this…there were some leftovers, too, but this made a fresh and tasty addition to the meal. I’ve mentioned that I have literal “to-make” lists. One of the first [...]
And Now for the Food Part
Saturday, October 25th, 2008Sometimes, a recipe is so tasty that you don’t get a decent picture of it before it’s gone. This is one of those recipes. There aren’t any leftovers, either, so I have to make it again to make it look more appetizing (and I will, and eventually I’ll also drag my Very Photogenic black& white [...]
How Many Links Can I Put in an Entry?
Friday, October 24th, 2008I’ve got another apple pie just out of the oven, this time made a little differently from my original recipe: no sugar added aside from a couple generous splashes of maple syrup, a big glug of vanilla extract, and a dusting of ground ginger (not fresh this time – I wanted the bite to be [...]
Photography is Hard!
Tuesday, October 21st, 2008Every time I cook something halfway interesting, I try to take a few shots of it, some for use but mostly for practice. My camera is nothing incredibly special but it isn’t bad, albeit totally clunky. It has a sweet flip-screen, though; you can see yourself while you take a self-portrait…Anyway, I find that, much [...]
Filling the Days
Monday, October 20th, 2008As many people know, I recently (ok, this past July) left my job as manager of a local record store for the domestic life. Though overall it was a great opportunity to expand my musical and cinematic tastes and I met many wonderful people, staff and customers alike, I’d had enough stress and decided it [...]
