Dining al fresco 101
By Devora Rogers - Europeans Do it Better series
With longer days and summer approaching, there’s nothing that I miss more than Europe’s sprawling terraces and outdoor cafes. While in Spain last year, I experienced their “terraza culture” which, if you’re not familiar is a fanaticism for outdoor bar and dining terraces. Madrid’s become famous for these spaces, perched atop buildings in the downtown area. While we may not have the table-lined streets of Paris or the terrazas of Spain, we do have tables, we do have food and we can bring them both outside. Read More »

Italian Baked Salmon
I used Salmon Filets when I made this since I like them better than Salmon Steaks. I find they have less bones in them than the steaks do. It looks like a lot of ingredients but all the ingredients go into the food processor except the salmon. 4 tablespoons olive oil 2 minced... Read More »

Delicious: Carol cooks Thomas Keller, makes us feel inadequate
Sometimes, someone will take on a project of such difficulty and such magnitude, attempt such great heights and risk such great failure that you think they must be crazy, out of their minds, a little loopy and totally off their rocker. But you also have to respect their courage, their recklessness, the far-sweeping reach of their dreams and their great and admirable determination in pursuing them. And then, you applaud when they achieve those dreams, believe in a better world where everyone can be a winner, and hope they can invite you over for dinner. Read More »

Break out the pitchers—it’s Sangria season
Sangría may mean “blood” in Spanish but to me it means “ideal libation for springtime parties.” It's basically punch made with red wine, chopped fruit, OJ and a little brandy or Triple Sec. Oh, and some water avec gas. I'm getting loopy just thinking about it. You don’t, however, always have to follow tradition, as I was reminded when I stumbled on Lisa Shea’s website devoted to all things Sangria. She’s quite the innovator as she’s got recipes for Irish whiskey Sangria, cognac Sangria, and even a Sangria made with cinnamon Red Hots... Read More »
