The Year on the Trail 2021
You really don't need a mask up here. Especially not at six in the morning. It's beautiful and hopeful. Hopin' for an even better year next year. Happy New Year.
The Year in the Kitchen 2021
Another year that began with a lot of time in the kitchen because home was the only place that offered indoor dining. So I went to Japan and the French Alps - in my kitchen.
Croque-Monsieur: Grilled Cheese & Ham
The French Way. For breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner. Hard to beat if you're in the mood for something warm and melting. Sweet and salty. Luxury in your mouth. For $2.50.
Slower Sunday: 2021’s Slowest
For some reason, it was water that really slowed me down this year. Like waiting for the water to boil.
Ginger Snap Granola
Festive and crunchy. Not your everyday granola. Granola you linger over on holiday weekend mornings. Bright and spicy. A wake-up call without coffee. One of the tastiest Ways to get more whole grains in your diet. One of the easiest-to-keep New Year's resolutions.
Curried Carrots & Chickpeas
100% of your Daily Flavor Requirement
A terrifically easy Way to add a load of flavor to a simple vegetarian dish. A winter dish that delivers a load of Vitamin A, protein and powerfully anti-imflammatory herbs and spices. And 100% of your Daily Flavor Requirement.
Slower Sunday: Awesome
This place is truly awesome. Not like, hey dude, your new surfboard is really awesome. No, I mean awesome in the original and profound sense of being in a state of awe.
