Cajun Shrimp with Maque Choux

July 19, 2010

My parents and brother came to visit this past weekend. It was so nice to see my family for the first time since we moved to New York! It’s too bad that they were only able to stay for a few days, but we had fun while we were together. For those of you who [...]

Sweet Asian Hot Wings

July 13, 2010

I’m sorry that I did not post yesterday. My husband’s grandfather passed away on Friday morning, so we were with family for his funeral. We will all miss Russ very much. I only knew him for 5 years, but he was always happy to see us and loved us dearly. We enjoyed gathering with family [...]

Graham Cracker Snickerdoodles

July 9, 2010

It’s been quite a trying week here in New York! We’re setting record highs for this time of the year, and it is definitely hot out there! The humidity is killer and the subways are stuffy beyond belief; it really is miserable outside. Still, though, we live in New York City, which makes it all [...]

The Perfect Omelette

July 5, 2010

I hope that everyone enjoyed their July 4th and their long weekend! We made some hot wings (which will soon be featured on this site), cracked open some beers, and watched the fireworks from the comfort (and safety) of our roof in Queens. We have a great view of Manhattan and it was a lovely, [...]

The only problem is that the bread starts to look kind of [...]

Ragù alla Bolognese

June 28, 2010

I’m amazed that I hadn’t posted a pasta bolognese on this site before. I haven’t really done that much Italian food, to be honest. I want to try to change that because I love Italian food! Recently Kramer and I have been trying some fantastic Italian restaurants in New York. One that we are absolutely [...]

Char Siu Pork

June 24, 2010

This Char Siu Pork is almost identical to what you would find in a Chinese restaurant. The name means “fork-roasted”, and it is typically hung over an open flame or in an oven of sorts and roasted until the skin is crispy and slightly charred. When eaten with rice, as I did, the dish is [...]

Eggs Rothko

June 21, 2010

One of our favorite restaurants in Brooklyn, and all of New York, really, is Egg in Williamsburg. We go there quite often for their amazing breakfasts. I usually get the chorizo and eggs or the wonderfully vinegary pulled pork sandwich if we’re there later in the day, but Kramer always sticks to breakfast when we [...]
