Lots to do
May 7th, 2010 by meg · 1 Comment · food
This weekend is packed with lots of activities around the city. I just wanted to point out a couple that everyone might enjoy.
Tonight there is a wine tasting on Fountain Square. I can’t comment on what the wines will be, but I am sure you will find a few gems in the pack.
Tomorrow morning there [...]
Asparagus Soup

A very close friend of mine had his 30th Birthday over the weekend. Gary has had many 30th birthdays, so for this one I asked if he wanted to come over my place for a relaxed dinner. I had visions of burgers on the grill while we relaxed on the deck. Both of those dreams [...]
Spring has Sprung

Spring is here and I think I actually have a few minutes to smell the roses. Maybe I should say smell the basil because mine is sprouting and I couldn’t be happier. Now my recipe today doesn’t have basil in it, but I think you will like it anyway. On my extended spring break I [...]

Wine Festival in Review
March 16th, 2010 by meg · 4 Comments · food, wine
Last year was the first wine festival that Jess and I missed since we started dating. I will say we had a pretty good excuse, I was wearing a big white dress and he was looking mighty fine in a tux. If it was up to Jess not only would we have vowed to love each [...]

Chili Showdown
March 12th, 2010 by meg · No Comments · food
Back in the fall some friends invited us to Louisville for a rib off. To put it nicely, Jess and I had an epic fail! The week was stressful leading up and we didn’t prepare. When they brought up the topic of a chili showdown we didn’t think twice. I am pretty sure that Jess [...]

Spam singles
February 24th, 2010 by jess · 3 Comments · food
I know this blog is normally dedicated to local foods and dining spots, but I ran across something yesterday that was so bizarre and so terrifying, I just had to share it.
Spam. Singles.
I suppose in the world of ultra processed meat product the fact that the consumer had to slice the product before eating was hurting hormel’s [...]

Earlier this week my friend Jen e-mailed me as said, I really want to go here. Yes, she really did send me a link to another blog to tell me she wanted to go to Terry’s Turf Club. You can hit just about every Cincinnati food blog and they will tell you how much they love this burger. [...]
Homemade Yoghurt – First Try
February 11th, 2010 by jess · 1 Comment · food
Over the last few years Meg and I have gradually been replacing the factory processed foods in our pantry and fridge with homemade alternatives. Of course we sometimes still use canned tomato sauce or a box of chicken stock but when reasonable we try to make our own. Our latest two projects have been [...]
