Um…yup, that would be me…lazy and recipe-averse.

With the exception of New Year’s Day lunch which I’m hosting, I was a guest most of the holidays. The proverbial blogger/cook’s day off. But I did carry out 6 side dishes: the first 3 for holiday parties I attended and the last 3 for Christmas Day dinner.

From my kitchen to yours…from my laptop to yours.
Thank you for your interest in FOODalogue during 2011. My work is truly a labor of love. I love the process and the continual education it provides, but it’s your interaction and visits that keeps this machine going.
I received this message in one of those dreaded chain e-mails, but the sentiment resonated. It’s my 2012 wish for everyone.
May there be peace within.
May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be.
May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others.
May you use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you.
May you be content with yourself just the way you are.
Let this knowledge settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love.
It is there for each and every one of us.

In fact, my calendar is quite full between now and the end of the year so I will have plenty of festivities to share with you as we approach 2012.
Tonight, however, I stayed in and cooked. This is a variant on the universally-loved spaghetti and meatballs. Continue Reading

I associate compote with my maternal grandmother. It’s not that I have a specific recollection of her making it for me…but, somehow, when I think of compote I think of her, so there must be a connection somwewhere in the recesses of my childhood memories.
I think she would approve of my recipe. Continue Reading
