Re: Honey Grain Bagels

I would like to try making bagels one day. It's one of those things that's not too hard, but it takes some time. Call me lazy. :) Bet these were great with your honey walnut cream cheese!

So glad you made this cake! It's a great treat, especially in the winter. It is a dense cake with a lot of flavor because of the spices and red wine. It's great with ice cream or whipped cream though. Happy to see your version! Thanks for sharing!

That's really beautiful...a great way to see her and how she lived. Love all of the beautiful bowls, pots and spoons in the kitchen.

Haven't tried a Fizz, but it's spritzers with soda water are often on the menu during the summer. A little ginger ale is a nice change. It's always great to get wine pairing tips, so you know how to be an awesome host or guest at your next dinner party.

This is a great way to obviously expand knowledge of technology within a community, but also to make girls and women proud of being involved smart and active techies!

Re: Promoting Healthy Culture: Building A Better Piñata

There are many very simple granola/granola bar, trail mix and even healthier cookie recipes that can be made and popped into the pinata. It's probably a better way of avoiding the extra sugars and random ingredients that go into the packaged snacks.

Such a fantastic idea! Cultural traditions should be amended, not deleted. Times changes, and so must we. There is no reason not to get rid of fun, memorable and authentic practices if they can be adjusted to fit the needs of the family and community. Of course, you could always bake the healthy treats that go in the pinata instead of buying them. That also puts a new hands-on touch on an old tradition.

Very curious about the cheese ice cream! Glad you enjoyed B&J. They have a ton of good flavors. Creme Brulee is definitely a good one.

Good post. People always have questions about cooking rice, especially a sticky rice like this. Once you get the hang of it, it's easy.

Tomato jam and tomatoes with balsamic reduction. Those would be 2 top ways to eat them. Enjoy the bounties of your garden!

That's a fun and fast dinner idea. Guess that's what we all strive for when it comes to dinner, right? This is one to try.

Re: Piccante Dolce: Meatless Monday: Ramp & Arugula Pesto

theduodishes — Tue, 07 Jun 2011 01:02:13 -0000

We don't have ramps growing around here...at least not that we've seen in our nearby yards. Lucky you. You can make pesto by the bushel and freeze it up for the winter!

They sound pretty tasty. It's a nice way to use up ricotta too! Wonder if it would work with cottage cheese and/or mascarpone too...

The papaya puree is an excellent idea to go with the pungent mustard and creamy cheese. Especially the cheese. What a treat.

Re: Carrot Cake Cupcakes with Cinnamon Frosting

You can actually make a lot of good muffins, cakes and cupcakes going vegetarian...or vegan. And neither one of us is a real vegan, but we've had a few of our own veganized recipes on the blog. Awesome one here too. The candied carrots are a nice touch. This is a good way to get kids to eat their veggies. ha!
