Years ago, when I was just out of college and a newly minted New Yorker, I went home to Foxboro for the holidays. There was a Blockbuster (remember brick-and-mortar video stores?!) nearby, where my brother once worked, and where we rented all our movies. When you're 23, and live with a bunch of ...
Beet, Banana, and Oat Smoothie
I've come clean with you before about my love for vacuum-packed cooked beets. I know, I know, they are more delicious and less expensive when you roast and peel them yourself, but let's face it: beet cookery is a dangerous business. Every time I do it, I ruin either a manicure or a sweater. It's ...
Improved Maple Leaf Cocktail
I can't believe it's been almost five years since I wrote my first cookbook! I'm so proud of it, but sometimes I wish I could go back and tweak some of the recipes. One of the things I've quickly come to love about blogging is how alive this site feels. It's always growing and changing, and nothing ...

I've never been a big smoothie person, and I'm not really into our current collective obsession with jucing. Why would I waste ...
Orange-aide
This past July, while we were on vacation on Martha's Vineyard, Owen fell in love with this lemon-lime-orange-aide sold at the farmers' market across the street from our house. It came in big plastic cups, and since Owen has yet to master drinking vessels of the non-sippy variety, much of it ended ...
