STAFF BLOG LAGNIAPPE Fleeting summer —that hasn’t started yet
On my bike ride the other night, I got waylaid by a good friend, who urged me to set a spell on his front patio. The ensuing conversation covered a lot of ground, but I have to admit to being a bit st...

OH LOOK! A SHINY THING Facebook Fear Factor: Cake and Pancake Mixes
What the warning (incorrectly) says: When they get old cake mixes grow spores that can kill you, which is why it's so important to throw out your expired cake mix -- it is toxic. What the warning lea...

Watercress takes center stage in colorful, flavorful soup
Whether Irish or not, as March 17 approaches, many home cooks start thinking green. Food coloring and sprinkles turn cookies and cupcakes into special treats for St. Patrick’s Day. The more health-conscious create fruit salads with green grapes and kiwi or big bowls of bright tossed salads made of mixed fresh greens.

For the love of broccoli: Stir-fry dish satisfies
I’ve always enjoyed eating broccoli. One of my favorite ways to prepare the green cruciferous vegetable is to steam it until it’s still a little crisp, yet tender enough for a fork to pierce into the stem. A drizzle of olive oil, a squirt of fresh lemon juice and a sprinkle of red pepper flakes and the broccoli can miraculously satisfy my taste buds just as powerfully as a chunk of creamy, rich dark chocolate melting on my tongue.

No matter how you say it, Belgian endive is good for you
“I’ll have the endive salad,” I said to the self-assured, curly-haired server. I felt confident in my pronunciation (ON-deev) of the pale-colored leaves that are a member of the chicory family. As I watched him make note of my order, he responded, “The ON-dive salad is delicious this evening.”

Honey-Glazed Roasted Pears delicious and eye-appealing
This time of year, you’ll usually find pears in the fruit drawer of my refrigerator. A crisp and juicy pear is a welcome midday snack eaten out of hand. Besides their buttery sweet flavor, it’s the versatility and adaptability in the kitchen that I most appreciate about pears.

Give Brussels sprouts a chance
On a recent dinner outing with friends, I was pleasantly surprised to see Brussels sprouts on the restaurant menu. I gave the chef points for offering a vegetable that, for the last several years, has been No. 1 on the list of vegetables consumers all over the world dislike the most.

These date bars aren't dated
Not long ago, I received an email from a reader asking me if I had an excellent recipe for date bars. It had been ages since I’d thought of those classic sweet treats with a cookie-like mixture sandwiching soft, creamy date filling. I hadn’t even noticed that date bars seem to have gone out of fashion.

Bring on the beans: Spicy Peppers with Beans (Chili)
I was using a soup spoon to scrape the shallow puddle of spicy, rich, dark red gravy from the bottom of a deep bowl. “How could anyone even miss meat in this chili?” I posed the question to my husband as we sat at the table finishing our meal of a bean-dominated piquant chili.

Darling clementines make flavor-bursting scones
For days, I’ve been making trips into the chilly garage to replenish the bowl of clementines that has been decorating my dining table. Before Christmas, I decided a small mesh-covered crate of the juicy fruit just wouldn’t be enough for my clementine-loving family. I bought a case. It must have been 25 pounds. In just two weeks, I can see the bottom of the cardboard box.

Resolving to eat some Yellow Pea Soup
It’s clear the time for resolutions is here. As I lay on the couch recovering from the stomach flu just a couple of days after Christmas, I saw advertising for Jenny Craig, the South Beach diet and Weight Watchers within minutes of turning on the television. Puffy people carrying extra pounds from holiday indulgences are just the audience they target. For many, new year’s resolutions involve health and fitness.

Glorious, decadent ricotta made in your own kitchen
I found myself giggling as I stood at my stove. I was using the end of my candy thermometer to stir a mixture of milk and cream in my heavy, turquoise-colored saucepan. Its enamel-coated interior is stained with years of use. I was having flashbacks of my homemade yogurt-making days 35 years ago.
