Slow Cooked Salmon from the Steamy Kitchen Cookbook

I’m a bad blogger buddy!  Jaden Hair’s lovely new cookbook, The Steamy Kitchen Cookbook, has been on the shelves for three weeks and I’ve yet to post about it.  Jaden was the first food blogger I ever met way back before SGCC was even a thought in my head.  She lives about 15 miles away from me, so when I stumbled upon her blog a few years ago, I immediately emailed her to introduce myself.  Jaden was kind enough to invite me to attend one of her cooking classes that just happened to also be a taping for a television feature on her.  I didn’t think twice before accepting!  I had a blast!  Plus, I got to be on TV!  That was when the blogging bug really bit me.  A few months later, with Jaden as a major inspiration, I decided to try blogging for myself – and SGCC was born.

I’ve always been a huge fan of Jaden’s recipes – and I’ve tried a whole lot of them.  When she announced that she was writing a cookbook, I was thrilled for her!  I was even more thrilled to be among her many recipe testers for the book.  During that time, I tried out some awesome recipes and it drove me crazy that I couldn’t share any of them with you, because…well, you know…because they were top secret, hush-hush recipes for the cookbook!  I wish now that I had taken photographs of some of those wonderful dishes I made.   read more >>

Deb’s Mom’s Apple Cake

Thursday, October 29, 2009 40 Comments

Yesterday, the temperature topped out around here at 86 degrees, F.  The humidity was so high that when I stepped outside from my air conditioned digs, my sunglasses promptly fogged right up, forcing me to stumble my way to my car.  That’s muggy, people! Now I ask you – …

TWD: Allspice Crumb Muffins

It’s been absolute ages since I’ve been able to participate in Tuesdays with Dorie!  Between work responsibilities, my new gigs, family obligations and my travel adventures, I’ve been playing a perpetual game of catch-up.  Last weekend, I found myself with a little time to breathe and snuck in some …

TWD: Vanilla Ice Cream

This week’s TWD comes right on the heels of the July Daring Bakers challenge and right on the toes of my July Dinner and a Movie roundup.  So, I’m going to make it very short (and very sweet).
I mean, it’s Vanilla Ice Cream, for crissake!

Saturday, January 5, 2008 2 Comments

I’m finally beginning to feel a bit more comfortable playing around with the look of my blog. I’ve still got a LOT to learn, but I’m working on it. I’ve been doing some tweaking and testing out a few new widgets in the sidebar. My goal is to include some …

kiss the cook!

I’m a professional musician, aspiring chef, wife, mother, daughter and sister, who used to be a lawyer in a previous life. My love of food comes from a long line of wonderful and creative Italian home cooks who didn’t always have a lot, but knew how to make a lot out of what they had. I hope that you enjoy yourself while you’re here, and visit often. read more >>
