Happy New Year 2013

I was sitting on the futon in the cabin reading when this blue jay landed in the tree just outside the window. Happy New Year Everyone !!

Snowy Night in the Cabin

Our first real snow storm of the winter and I decided to spend the night out in the cabin, my first sleep-over.

Edible Garden - Peas & Beans

Episode 1 of 6 
Alys Fowler attempts to avoid shop-bought fruit and vegetables and live off her own home-grown produce. It's no easy task because Alys doesn't want to turn her garden into an allotment, so she's growing her fruit and vegetables among her flowers. 

Alys will focus on different foods and show how anyone can grow, cook and eat from their own garden - even if they live in a city. 

Peas and beans are prolific vegetables but they also look beautiful in the borders. Alys makes delicious broad bean falafels and pea shoot cocktails, and forages for willow to make plant supports. And she has two new additions to the family - her chickens!

I always think these little things are so expensive when you see them in a pastry shop window or on a desert menu but once you see the amount of work and time involved in making them the price seems a lot more reasonable. Way too beautiful to eat.

Simple Savers (226): Jacques Pépin: More Fast Food My Way

Minute Recipe: Basil Cheese Dip.
Born in Lyon, France, Jacques demonstrates his regional versions of fried and poached eggs as he makes the classic salad Frisée aux Lardons. Then, with thoughts of summer, he makes Spaghetti with Fresh Tomato and Anchovy Sauce. In a sweet ending, Jacques talks about spending time with his granddaughter while he makes an impressive-looking -- but simple to assemble -- Chocolate Cups and Chocolate Rocher with Hazelnuts and Cornflakes.

Chefs at Google: Jacques Pépin | "New Complete Techniques"

Jacques Pépin joined Googlers to discuss his latest (and 28th!) book, NEW COMPLETE TECHNIQUES, which was released on November 13th. Containing nearly 1000 cooking methods and recipes and more than 2000 step-by-step photos, this 700-page volume updates and expands the scope of JACQUES PEPIN'S COMPLETE TECHNIQUES (2001), the book that combined the legendary chef's landmark works, LA TECHNIQUE (1976) and LA METHODE (1979).

Jacques Pépin was born in Bourg-en-Bresse, near Lyon. Moving to the United States in 1959, Pépin first worked at New York's historic Le Pavillon restaurant and then served for ten years as director of research and new development for the Howard Johnson Company while attending Columbia University. A former columnist for the New York Times, Pépin is a contributing editor to Food & Wine magazine. He also participates regularly in that magazine's Food & Wine Classic in Aspen as well as at other culinary festivals and fund-raising events worldwide. He is a popular guest on top-rated television programs including Today, Good Morning America, and The Late Show with David Letterman.
