Coconut Caramel Macadamia Squares (and a Sweet Giveaway!)

It was a happy coincidence early last December when Abby Dodge and I bumped into one another at the Cookies for Kids’ Cancer Cookie Swap a few weeks before Sharon and Anthony’s wedding. Lucky for me Abby brought her Coconut Caramel Macadamia Squares to the event. I was in charge of baking cookies for Sharon

Pumpkin Bread Pudding With Caramel Sauce and Brandied Whipped Cream

September 22 is the first day of fall, and that makes today autumn eve. We’re celebrating with Pumpkin Bread Pudding with Caramel Sauce and Brandied Whipped Cream, a recipe I developed back in June for the folks at Le Creuset. I wanted to share it with you back then, but running a pumpkin recipe in

Penne with Broccoli Pesto and Corn

I haven ‘t always been big on pasta. Part of it is that Andy (for whatever reason) has always said that pasta feels like “lunch food” to him. And for me, I used to see ‘pasta’ as simply spaghetti and red sauce. But I’ve grown as a cook in the last four or five years

Simple Grilled Octopus with Lemon and Parsley

Now that I’ve done it, I don’t know why in my thirty-year cooking career I had never cooked octopus. It all started this summer when a friend of ours who had just been to Barcelona found out we were going and wanted to drop off a helpful packet of maps, brochures, and restaurant recommendations. As

Tomato-Mozzarella Salad with Sweet Peppers and Parsley

I posted this photo over on our ThreeManyCooks Facebook page just for inspiration, but it had so many likes, comments, and shares, I thought I’d take a moment to post it on our site too. Everyone knows the classic tomato, basil, mozzarella, but a little inspiration in my CSA box led me to create this

Big Beautiful Bran Muffins with Cranberries and White Chocolate

This entire weekend was such a beautiful bridge between summer and fall. Sharon was home from Atlanta, cause enough for a party. But we also took the opportunity to celebrate Dad’s birthday on Friday night which started with light, summery ales and grilled octopus, decidedly summery fare. But come dinner, we were drinking Chateauneuf-du-Pape and

Black-Eyed Pea and Collard Green Soup

This past Saturday I was at the grocery store. As I walked the aisles it occurred to me I didn’t have a lunch plan. Coincidentally I had just been paging through The Southern Foodie, a fun new book by Chris Chamberlain. The book’s subtitle is a mouthful but perfectly descriptive: 100 Places to Eat in the South

Borough Market, London

A couple weeks ago Andy and I were on an epic trip across Scotland and England, reconnecting with family and friends – some who we had not seen in years. I had a couple free days in London while Andy was working so got together with my food-loving, photograph-taking, college buddy Liam and his girlfriend, Naomi

Apple Butter Cinnamon Bars with Oatmeal Crumble

It’s drizzling here in eastern Pennsylvania today, Isaac’s gentle farewell to us all. Before David and I head back to our home in Connecticut this afternoon, I’m spending the last few hours of my Labor Day holiday watching the occasional puff of wind nudge early fall leaves to the ground. I know it’ll feel good
