It's time. March. Then April. Then the showers bring May flowers. And July tomatoes and herbs. I just picked the last leaves on last year's basil plant that's been withering on the kitchen windowsill. I'll plant this year's crop at the end of next month. C'mon, plant something.
Bread&Breakfast: Bakin’ Bacon Cornbread
This is what you want in your oven on a winter weekend morning. A persuasive case for eating less meat and enjoying it more. Cornbread with a thin, crackling bacon-flavored crust around a soft, light, crumbly interior. Full of tiny, crunchy flecks of bacon. I could eat this every day.

Roasted Pear-Maple Syrup Pudding Cake
Just in case its name doesn't say it all, let me tell you how thoroughly delicious this really is. Perfectly pure pear flavor, intensified by quick roasting. The deeply dark version of sweet from pure maple syrup. Big, mouth-filling flavor. Amazingly light but luxurious and rich.
