i hope to inspire people to think outside the fast-food box, to boldly go forth without cook book in hand into a new world of homecooked meals intuitively seasoned. no more let us stagnate at our dinner tables eating the same food day in and day out! i offer also anecdotes from my daily life at the mercy of my children, lest you think i have nothing to do all day but fiddle with my computer and play at the gourmet food store...

dinner in the pot
tonight: comfort with a twist. my mom used to make what we called dinner in the pot on cold crumby nights. a big pot layered with chicken breasts, carrots, potatoes, and sometimes cabbage on top. tonight i started with butter and diced onions, i browned two chicken breasts on one side then flipped and sprinkled on garlic salt and pepper. while that cooked i cut up three carrots into large chunks and halved three potatoes. i put about a cup and a half of sauv. blanc in with the chicken and sprinkled on some savory then i layered in the carrots and potatoes in and put the lid on. it simmered on low for about three hours and turned out delicious.
