This is what I look like in 2010. On a good day. Photo taken after a long afternoon spent traipsing around Canal Park and downtown Duluth on a cold, rainy, blustery Saturday in April.
…Instead of holing up in the nearby DECC, where, at the time this photo was taken, I believe the DFLers were on their second [...]
We’ve been getting English cucumbers in our CSA box the past couple of weeks, and they are ideal for this recipe. Our CSA also supplied the fresh dill and the shallots.
This cucumber salad was always part of Sunday dinners at Grandma Tild’s house during the summer.
I couldn’t find one recipe that was exactly the way I [...]
OK, here’s a picture of this week’s batch of kale chips, made with the Red Russian Kale we got in our CSA box.

Probably the first thing you’re noticing about Red Russian kale is that it’s not red. [Well, the stems are, but for kale chips you cut away the stems [...]

My sons are no longer tots (unless 6’2″ young adults qualify for tot-hood) but they do indeed love leafy greens, especially when those leafy greens are transformed [by a little olive oil & sea salt & roasting in an oven] into crispy chips.
My youngest (the almost-20 [...]

*Sigh*… It’s so sad. In a few minutes I have to fire up the Exploder and trundle off to work for the first time since December 23rd.
So, what have I been up to during the past week? Yeah yeah there was Xmas etc, but other than that how did I spend my days? Well I’ll tell [...]
I have this entire week off (a rare occurrence) and because it’s also Thanksgiving week I’ve been spending my days racing around from co-op to hardware store to ÜberTarget to liquor store to Costco and back. But please don’t assume that means there’s an orgy of spending going on. Nuh-uh. Many stops but few purchases has [...]
