Saying Goodbye [Creole Deviled Eggs with Pickled Okra] By The Gouda Life 09/25/12 21:43 I hate goodbyes. I’ve never been very good at them.

Simple Simplicity [Linguine with Fennel and Clams] By The Gouda Life 09/22/12 20:13 Isn’t it such a pain when you decide to make a recipe that coins itself ”simple” and it turns out it has to sit or marinade for 12 hours, or calls for a bunch of random ingredients or kitchen equipment you might never use again?

Last Sigh of Summer | Farmers Feast #4 [Propeller esb & Chipotle Braised Lamb Shank Tostadas] By The Gouda Life 09/19/12 16:56 I’m a season pusher. The crazy person wearing a wool sweater and heavy boots the second the mercury drops below 20 degrees. If it could be between +5 and +15 all year round, I’d be pleased as flaky apple pie (you know, because it would be apple season year... Lamb Shank Tostada Chipotle Summer Lamb Add to my recipe book

Eat. Dance. Admire. [Aboretum Festival; Ticket Giveaway] By The Gouda Life 09/13/12 17:10 There used to be a time when finding something to do on weekends in Ottawa was damned near impossible unless you wanted to spend the night shot-gunning cans of Budweiser at [enter generic pub name here].

Humble Comforts [Roasted Tomato & Carrot Soup with Mozzarella-Thyme Croutons] By The Gouda Life 08/14/12 21:48 Isn’t it remarkable that a certain smell or taste can instantly whisk you away to a time tucked deep in the cobwebbed nooks of your memory?

The Muffins That Changed the World [Sexy Bran Morning Muffins] By The Gouda Life 08/08/12 02:16 Ok, so maybe “changed the world” is a little over dramatic. But they certainly changed MY world. And continue to do so. Breakfast was always very important in our family. You didn’t leave the house or start a day without it. Typically, there was cinnamon... Muffin Add to my recipe book

Dinner for One [Grilled bc Sardines with Lemon-Herb Oil] By The Gouda Life 07/25/12 00:26 Eating alone is something I’m familiar with. Something I’ve grown to love, to cherish.

It Could Be Worse... [Nicoise Salad with Lemon-Parsley Vinaigrette] By The Gouda Life 07/19/12 18:31 It could be worse. I keep trying to tell myself that of our “feels like” 42C weather.

A Salad to Salivate [Grilled Kale Salad with Peaches and Ricotta] By The Gouda Life 07/11/12 17:33 I wandered into the grocery store yesterday afternoon to pick up a few things for lunch; cheese, bread, tomatoes, greens.
