Holy Storm, Batman! Whoa, whoa, whoa. What a night! First, let me explain why I was foolishly driving around in what basically amounted to a pre-tornado. My Bizarre (Foods) friend Andrew Zimmern invited John and me, as well as our friends Aaron and Carol Mack (although only Aaron could make it), to join him this…

Perfect, we had a perfect dinner at Restaurant Alma last night. Cozy, fun, delicious. I love a restaurant that serves high-quality, beautifully-prepared food in appropriate (!) portions, so you walk out feeling fantastic, not stuffed, not ill. I love that about Lucia’s, and now I love it about Alma. I opened with a small celery…

Update! No Nick and Eddie’s tonight, some sort of permit didn’t come through for the opening (?), so we’re heading to Restaurant Alma instead. I’m not complaining, Alma is lovely and I’ve been meaning to go back for way too long. Thanks Rudy for quickly finding us a new res! So the bling is donned,…

Ditto Day! More roast beef (this time in a sandwich), more hiking in Elm Creek Park Reserve (so glorious yesterday, I whipped right back up there today), more warm sun/cool breezes (aka prrrfect September weather), all good, all good. Tomorrow night, dinner at Doug Anderson’s (formerly of Bakery on Grand and A Rebours) brand spankin’…

What’s not to love about a September day like today? Cool, clear air, warm sun, it’s out of control! John and I were going to head over to Lucia’s for one of our fabulous Saturday brunch dates, but after the Cocktail Jewelry party on Thursday night, with all the treats and wine, and with a…

Fun! That’s what Cocktail Jewelry Parties are – just plain FUN! Here it is, after 1:00 a.m., so this will be a quick post, one of those I’m-Too-Jazzed-To-Fall-Asleep-So-I’ll-Write posts. I do need some sleep, since Cooper Cuteness will be here at 9:00 tomorrow (this) morning. So I’ll post recipes later – I think the tres…

Hola! I’m gearing up for a Mexican-themed Cocktail Jewelry Party this evening, starring Suz’s Silpada bling and lots of my spicy treats. Yay for parties! Yay for a reason to invite the girls over! I’m making carnitas to eat rolled in soft corn tortillas and garnished with chopped radishes, pickled onions, and a drizzle of…

I’m a big fan of food cooked in foil packets. As you know, packets of veggies and/or potatoes, on the grill, were a big fav this summer. Tonight I slow-baked halibut, with olive oil, lemon, scallions, garlic, tomatoes, and a little sprinkle each of salt, cumin, and curry powder. Wrap, wrap, wrap (two sheets of…

Ah, Sunday, a day of moderation. I was due, I’m sure you’ll agree, after a week that included dinner at Debbie & Stu’s,dinner with Zim & Rishia, brunch at Lucia’s, and roasted chicken not once, but twice. Uh, ack! So today – a gorgeous, cool, sunny day, just like I’d been wishing for – I…

My office is clean. I’m roasting a chicken (again). John and I had a gorgeous Date Day brunch at La La Lucia’s. Life is goooood, my friends, at least right now, ha. That brunch, that scrumptious brunchious (or something), just unbeatable. Today we sipped mimosas and nibbled on popovers, frittata (their version is more like…
