My girl’s wicked smaht!

As you probably gathered from her last post, Ona is moving away from us lowly DMVers and heading for brighter, smarter pastures.  She’s off to Harvard Law (and something about public health… too advanced for me).  Ona “Elle Woods” Balkus is heading to Cambridge (our fair city).  Now… most importantly… where should Ona eat?

Well-Stocked

Two boxes of cookbooks, another three of kitchen appliances, and an awkwardly-shaped popcorn maker—that’s how my kitchen equipment packs up.  For the next month they will wait to be unpacked in a new city, while I soak in the luxuries of being back in my mom’s fully-equipped kitchen, where the pantries are always full and [...]

I’m sorry for not posting on my CSA boxes over the past few weeks. Things have been pretty hectic.  But that’s no excuse.  Anyway, I’m back! My boxes have been great lately — overflowing with fabulous veggies!  Ok, not overflowing but close.  This week was my first lettuce-free box of the year!  Woohoo! – Cucumbers [...]

Lessons on how to Ciao! Better

Five years ago when I studied abroad in Rome, I relearned everything that I thought I knew about food and cooking. I was already interested in cooking when I got there, but was still stuck nervously following recipe directions, sacrificing flavor to make dishes “healthier”, and not understanding why a fresh peach salsa probably wasn’t [...]
