Ginger Cocktails

I just love creating cocktails. Really, it’s the best way to spend an early Sunday morning while everyone is still asleep, especially during the holidays. Sometimes, I have to make seven or eight versions of a certain drink before it tastes just right. Yah, well, someone has to do it. I really enjoy the signature

What We’re Loving: Holiday Cookies

Is there anything more memory invoking than the sweet, soothing smell of cookies baking during the holidays? The rich scent of molasses takes me back to snow days spent shoulder to shoulder in my family’s kitchen, pressing flour-dredged cookie cutters into freshly rolled dough. While the glisten of icing reminds me of finger tips made

I’m excited and humbled by so much these days. I bet if I count the number of times I’ve written “I’m so excited” on this blog in the last five years, well, the number would be humbling… and staggering. Seriously, I need to probably chill on the excitement. But, um, how can I? During the

Apples. As sure a sign of fall as the mosaic of colors that dot the New England landscape. Crunchy, tart, sweet. Apples come in every creed and color versatile enough to suit any fall-taster’s palette. Yes, we too love the adventure of apple picking, navigating the narrow rows of our favorite orchards, balancing on the

So much fruit, so little time. Spending time grilling figs, wiping strawberry juice from the corner of my mouth, tossing blueberries into, well, everything makes me happy.  Ah, fresh summer fruit. We’re planning to highlight summer’s greatest asset in an upcoming series of posts on fruit crisps…until then, we’re loving these baked fruit desserts from

What We’re Loving: Tomatoes

Sometimes I catch myself staring at the batches of tomatoes on display at the farmers market.  Just gazing, because they are so pretty, dreaming about what I will make.  And often, I just take them home, slice them and sprinkle on some salt and pepper and eat.  That’s how we used to do it at

A New England Clambake is so very summer: backyard (or beach!), bibs, beer and a crowd.  The traditional menu typically stars lobster (plus melted butter!), with clam chowder, mussels and clams, a hunk of corn on the cob, potatoes and maybe some coleslaw on the side.  After devouring said clambake a few weeks ago and

What We’re Loving: Salads

by Lauren Keiper

This time of year, when I think salad, I tend to go straight to the potato or macaroni variety, nearly always a staple at a summertime cookout, and for good reason. On the hottest days, I also love to make a Panzanella salad, rough cuts of bread and veggies tossed in a light dressing.  It
