I love taking photos of food. It's become some sort of an obsession, but not enough that I want to go out and buy an uber expensive camera or rig up a mini crane so I can get overhead shots. I'm a cook, and an eater and damn I love my food to look good, …

This place deserves a hell of a lot more recognition than it gets.http://www.acornhouserestaurant.com/Not only are their origins and their intentions both honourable and sustainable, the food they serve is absolutely top notch.I had the great fortune to visit them last year with my friend Karen, and we just were agog at the quality and cleverness …
Brownies, blondies, call ’em what you will.
I tried a brownie recipe a while ago using sweet potato as the 'fat'. It was rich and gooey and luscious.(http://cookwitch.blogspot.com/2010/07/turkish-delight-brownies-variation.html)Now I want to try a variation, simply because I am dying to try and make lilac brownies.

In the Bag – Tray Baked Mushroom Kibbeh
So. A challenge. The gauntlet had been thrown and for once I didn't chicken out and say "Ooof too much effort." Part of me - my aching back - still says I should have done and part of me also says that I should have stuck to recipes that I know and am used to. …
