I feel that we New York City-ers are slightly jaded by produce. We live in a giant bucket of cement, yet somehow can go to Whole Foods or Food Emporium and find squash any time of the year, or mangos that might just be ripe. Little do we appreciate that these vegetables were grown under mud and [...]

White Chocolate Surprise Bark

The best part of Halloween is the trick. April Fool’s is pretty big in my family also, including crank calls and hiding in each other’s cars. However, between my friends and me, Halloween is the time for true trickery. I’ve been silly stringed, pied, even attacked by gentlemen in masks, who are actually people I should have [...]
My First Webisode! Halloween-Style
Posted in Desserts (For The High Cal Right Brain), tagged Chocolate, Dessert, WEBISODE on October 23, 2009 | 1 Comment »
Please note before watching this video that: The camera decided to eat the distance between my 25 inch waist and the Surpremes. (Thank you Desperate Housewives!) I’m in my parent’s kitchen–home on vacation–hence why everything is so pretty. No, I will not post pictures from Halloween. I have dignity people. These are honestly very simple [...]
Stuffed Potatoes

In accordance with my post on drop biscuits for nights of misery, everyone has a certain dish they make when they want to impress a proposed man. And ladies, these will impress a man. I am convinced that a man’s brain consists of the pie chart below: This fits many men’s brains; however, has nothing [...]
Drop Biscuits

Every woman has a recipe that they can throw together at anytime for a well needed binge. Whether it’s shoving your head into a jar of peanut butter or a favorite 20 minute cake, we all have them. My mom first showed me drop biscuits as a kid in her cooking classes. However, I remember them [...]
Tandoori Chicken

I don’t know what it is, but I crave Indian food. Often! Actually, the first birthday Rico and I spent together was celebrated by me taking him out for Indian food to a sweet, little spot called Panna II. Here, in the East Village, is an interestingly decorated restaurant in which the walls and ceiling are COMPLETELY [...]
Linzertorte and Family
Posted in Desserts (For The High Cal Right Brain), tagged Dessert, Tart on October 7, 2009 | 2 Comments »
OK, this post may get a little emotional. I’ll try my hardest to throw in a few good jokes, but if it gets a little sappy, I’m a woman, it happens. One of my favorite desserts is a Linzertorte. It was also known as a “Lindsay Tart” to my grandfather, who affectionately named it after my fashionable Aunt [...]
Cheesy Burgers, Two Ways
Posted in Main Dishes (For The Low Cal Left Brain), Main Dishes(For the High Cal Right Brain), tagged Beef, Burger on October 4, 2009 | 3 Comments »
There’s something quite special about burgers that are stuffed with things, especially cheese. I don’t know what it is, but when you bite into a burger and it’s filled with something special, it’s just like those days when you put on a pair of jeans you haven’t worn in a while and you find 20 bucks in [...]
