Foodie Friday: Saute' Swiss Chard

I just discovered Swiss Chard.   At first, I didn't know what to do with it, until a 1963 cookbook instructed me to cook Swiss chard like spinach.  Spinach, I can cook.  So, here's what I did to my first batch of chard.  (True confession.  On my first attempt, I tried making chard chips, first.  Yuck!)

So understand how hard it is for me to wrap my brain around the concept that some people don't read, don't have books of their own, [...]

I turned in my final, final edits for my August book a few weeks before Christmas. So, during the holidays, I could enjoy all the hustle and bustle our family is famous for. I promised myself time off until Jan 2.  The break was just long enough that by the day after New Years I [...]
