*Note from Pioneer Woman: Because of information learned this morning, this post has been amended.* I have this book of old children’s portraits. Don’t ask me why I have it. I just have it. I have other things you don’t know about, too. I’ll reveal them gradually over time.

SNE: The Manuscript

3448297c1dmanu 1.jpg 150x100 SNE: The Manuscript

I thought I’d take some time to write about Super Natural Every Day . The manuscript and photography are due this summer so why not wipe the spelt flour off my cheek, let the quinoa simmer on its own for a bit, and share a bit about how I’m working toward that not-so-far-off date? I’ll start by telling you about my creative process, which, in a broad sense, starts by collecting things that inspire me. I keep all sorts of scraps, notebooks, photos and random text files around. They live in drawers, on desktops, some are paper, others are digital. Thoughts and inspirations set aside for later, someday, next year. Occasionally, I’ll cluster a few of these things together if there is some sort of connection that strikes me as interesting. If I’m really excited about something, that particular cluster might end up in an envelope or folder. Many of the ideas, images, and thoughts related to this new book lived in a simple paper folder for a time. I’d add a copy of a recipe from one of my notebooks occasionally, or a photo of a place that evoked a certain …

LAPIS LEGIT – INDONESIAN LAYERED CAKE

9526480ea7cture4.jpg 99x150 LAPIS LEGIT – INDONESIAN LAYERED CAKE

BLACK & WHITE…. NIGHT & DAY…. VANILLA & CHOCOLATE How different can two be? From the start they were like black & white , one bouncing inside, the other quiet as a mouse on Christmas Eve. I remember when JP and I, heavily pregnant, nearing the end, went to see Hairspray . Sitting in my movie theater seat Clem would lie quietly, patiently during the dialogue but each time the first chords of the music would begin, the singing and dancing start, my belly would bounce, baby swinging, turning, twisting this way and that to the music. And every night exactly at 10, as I was resting my book on my mountain of a belly, my eyes heavy, off he would start, like clockwork, swirling and twirling, letting me know he was there and wide awake. Simon, on the other hand, hardly moved, still as the night. In the evenings I would get nervous and start to punch and push and pound trying to get some kind of reaction to make sure he was all right and still there. And, of course, Clem popped out according to schedule, right on time, while Simon, tricky little fellow, kept teasing, playing…

Sup! Loves Cookbooks: Turquoise A Chef’s Travels In Turkey

6c2649d91bquoise.jpg 150x139 Sup! Loves Cookbooks: Turquoise A Chefs Travels In Turkey

I have made this cook book available in my OpenSky Shop. Just CLICK here to be taken straight there. “Food Porn” just what does that mean? Where did the phrase even come from? I find the casual use of that term mildly disturbing and a bit inappropriate. It’s not that I am a prude in any way (at all), but it does seem a bit disrespectful to actual pornography. Because it indicates a snobbish sort of elitism– a bit of tongue-in-cheek wryness designed to let the reader know just how hip we foodies think we must be. Do we really need to let the world know how cool and open-minded we are by embracing “pornography” in this superior way? Oh the irony of it, because (it seems to the world) that we foodies see pornography as – well, bourgeois. Though to be fair, I suppose the term got its start because many of the same carnal (animalistic) instincts are tickled by both varieties of “porn”. Still “food porn” can embarrass me in a way that the other kind cannot. Understanding the etymology of the term might help me embrace it and come to know what it means. Which may help me see why I find the term…

Today’s readers all qualify for Evil Wrecky Henchpersons of the Month. Check it out: First up, my apologies to Steph H. for not posting her awesomely hilarious Halloween costume sooner: As you can see, Steph here is decked out in the ultimate CW homage costume! (Plus she matches the couch – so, you know, bonus points there.) The back: And the shoes! Steph even started her own CW-inspired site called Tomb Wrecks . Now that’s the level of devotion I expect from you Wreckies . Excellent work, Steph ! Next up, Manda K. has gone a little carrot jockey crazy: …and I approve . Oh, and for you non-tweeting types who missed it, here’s David & his jockey tie causing some familial consternation: Love it. Many of you send in your intentional Wrecks – some homemade, some ordered, all hilarious. Here are a few of my recent favs : Shauna W. did her own version of Cannibal Cake (aka Cakey ): Trish invented a mom version of ” Happy Falker Satherhood ” for her friend Nicole’s baby shower: “Happy Motnicovicterhood !” Nice touch with the improper spacing, too. This…

Kitchen Monkey Getting Married (and Restaurant Daniel, and Other Matters)

41363c8381ys 150x84 Kitchen Monkey Getting Married (and Restaurant Daniel, and Other Matters)

Yes, it’s true, and there’s much to tell about that, but first a bit about the long absence. Shamefully, it has been around a year and a half since my last post. I’ve been busy with work, recording music, and yes, cooking. Somehow the blog fell by the wayside, but I’m hoping to change that. Yes, I know I’ve said that before. No, I’m not assuming that you care. There have been numerous interesting food adventures in the past year or so–sojourns to out-of-the-way butcher shops and farms; fantastic farmers markets; excellent D.C. area restaurants–but two adventures easily stand out. The first is the SASOU Chef cooking competition/supper club that Kitchen Monkey and seven friends formed over a year ago. SASOU deserves its own post, however, and will have to wait. The second was a truly phenomenal dinner at a truly phenomenal restaurant: Daniel. That dinner was part of what I would say was a perfect day, the day I proposed to my soon-to-be-wife. Without going into too much detail, I proposed in a secluded part of Central Park in Manhattan, she was surprised, and she said yes. She knew we had reservations at Daniel. She didn’t know it was…

Favorite Cookbooks: Rachel Cole

68e206d549oklist 150x100 Favorite Cookbooks: Rachel Cole

I’ve been looking forward to running this list for quite some time. Rachel and I met a few years back when she was working toward her Master’s degree in Holistic Health Education. At the time she was interested in learning about some of the work I was doing, and I was happy to let her help me as she worked toward her degree. Let me start by saying, Rachel is no slouch. She’s involved in a wide range of things, but I’d say the over-arching thread that seems to run through much of what she does is planning events that bring people to the table to reconnect with food, themselves, and each other. She’s the program director of 18 Reasons , Bi-Rite Market’s not-for-profit community center focused on engaging San Francisco residents through art and food. She created Edible San Francisco Magazine’s Edible Pursuit (which was a total blast, btw). And (way back) formed a community potluck series, called Grub, which inspired people of all ages to get back into the kitchen and break bread with their neighbors. Thanks for taking the time to share this list Rachel, I’m looking forward to attending a good number of your events this…
