Anything But Turkey: Burgers, Hummus, and Spice
We have all had our fill of poultry especially the Thanksgiving turkey variety. If you haven’t, then there are probably still leftovers in the back of the fridge that you can help yourself to. And then, you can go out and try something a little different. How about a “sous vide” style steamed burger finished…
Fantasy Thanksgiving Menu: Boston Area Thanksgiving To Go
I love to cook, so our Thanksgiving is prepared by me and my entire family with a few exceptions. We always have a selection of Fastachi nuts, seeds, and mixes for guests to nibble on while the turkey is cooking. I also love the ooey gooey deliciousness of Petsi Pies pecan pie so I…

Bowl Kings: Step Inside
I love summer days by the ocean. Poolside afternoons and early evenings swimming until our lips are blue are a huge part of summer fun. Picking berries at the CSA and ignoring the sweltering heat because each fresh blueberry pops in our mouths with the taste of perfection defines summer. Day after beautiful day outdoors…

Date Me: Let ‘s Keep it Strictly Tableside
You know someone using Match.com. Your best friend married their JDate. Christian Mingle is out there too. It’s not a new concept and it seems to work for many. Heck even the Kardashian sisters convinced their little sister to try out online dating. I don’t need a date. Well I do need a date but…
Boston Wine Festival: Valentine’s Day Continues
I love wine and I love food. I’m definitely not a connoisseur when it comes to wine, and I rely heavily on a good wine store, or store within a store like Formaggio Kitchen and Hi Rise Bakery, or a good sommelier. The best way to get to know wine is to try several in…
