Cooking
Pim put it so well, “Living and blogging are not quite in harmony at the moment.” But to make matters worse, events in the kitchen have conspired against me as well.
I didn’t spend much time in the kitchen last week, and so had nothing to blog about. I had hoped to remedy that this past weekend. I spent time on several cooking projects, thinking I would get material for at least two or three posts. Unfortunately, I had little success and no pretty pictures (thank goodness I wrote my IMBB post last week!). I may still write of the failures and less-than-noteworthy efforts of last weekend, but tonight I’ve decided to do a mini exposé of my kitchen.
I hope you will not be too distressed by the disarray you are about to see. I did not straighten any shelves before taking these pictures. I also took a few close-up pictures so you could read some labels (as I would want to do). I’ll be back cooking soon.

- Leftover Tuesdays #8: Use It Up
I participated in my first Leftover Tuesdays last month, and to my immense surprise, was the random winner of a shiny new Knife Skills books for my effort! After that kind of welcome, how could I not offer to host the September edition? For this month,...
- Belated Meme
A couple of weeks ago, Lyn tagged me for a meme. I was crazy-busy, so I had to put it on hold. I'm almost back to normal now, so here you go: RECIPE COLLECTION MEME Where do you obtain the recipes you prepare? Good grief; everywhere! I have more...
- My Kitchen, The First Installment
Try, try again. So, here's my kitchen. Or, some of it, anyway. A few weeks ago, Celeste of Chopstick Cinema invited me to join other food bloggers and 'show off' my kitchen. I thought it was a great idea, but was I horrified! My kitchen is...
