and thus, is time to make the annual required Indian Pudding. Yay! You too could join me in my tradition. It's not hard (although, it does make a serious dent in the household's milk supply). My recipe comes from Marion Cunningham's The Breakfast Book . 4 cups cold milk 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal 1 cup brown sugar 1 1/2 t ground ginger 1/2 t nutmeg 1/2 t cinnamon 1 t salt 1/2 cup molasses 1 cup ...
I present to you all a Christmas roast. It's the perfect holiday meal. This roast beef is rich and flavorful, while still very buttery and tender without actually using any butter! Believe it, friends, for I speak the truth. This roast beef is perfection. I had never made a roast beef before, so I was extremely happy with this meal. The outside was crusty, lightly spicy, and expertly seasoned...
So this year my brother asked for some of my homemade spice rubs for Christmas. I just made them up and wrapped them, and I thought that maybe I could share the recipes here as ideas for nice little stocking stuffers for others to give to your loved ones as well. Sorry, no pics of the finished product. But I can assure you that they're all very yummy! BBQ rub 2 Tbsp white sugar 2 Tbsp ...

I'm going to put it in the fridge overnight and re-heat it for supper tomorrow. (I'm one of those folk who believes that soups tend to taste better after a day of sitting in the fridge...) Here's my first pass at making up this recipe:...

A couple of vegetarian (and pesectarian)-friendly recipies I found thanks to my new locales in Scotland and Norway. The tomato sauce on the pasta is one of THE best I have eve had. I've been to high-scale restaurants with pasta sauce that's turned out waterier than this stuff has. If the idea of fish in tomato pasta makes you nervous - my dad despises almost everything in this dish - from tuna ...

Day 21 → A recipe Granny buns My dad's Grandmother Ellison, aka Granny, made buns from scratch. My mom's grandmother made bread every day. Neither of them ever measured--they took pinches of salt and fistfuls of flour and tossed it in and called it even. Because, you know, it's not about measurements, because those will change with the humidity--it's all about the feel of the dough (something...
