If you're at a loss as to how to cook your fish without losing a lot of moisture, try this method. Wash lightly pat dry the fish fillets with a paper towel. Lay it in the middle of a piece of parchment paper, and add washed and chopped vegetables (like asparagus, green beans, or diced squash). Drizzle with olive oil and/or a few bits of butter, salt and pepper, and bake at 400 for 25 minutes. Et voila! Sent from Yahoo! Mail on Android |
As part of my advent calendar this year (handmade by my mom), there was an envelope of baking labels that she printed onto sticker backing. When I opened the package, I only saw the top label, but now that I'm ready to bake today, I untied the little bundle and -surprise- they are all different! How fun! Some of the labels say "Something special just for from Ri's kitchen", and "sweet treats just for you, from Ri", and even "Dutch treats, made just for you by Marie". Sent from Yahoo!

While in Paris last month (ooh la la!), I was reminded of Europeans' proclivity to stick an egg on nearly everything, from sandwiches to pizza to salads. I didn't take the opportunity to try it for myself while I was there because there were far more interesting things to be had on those menus -oh yes!- but I was still curious about it. What's a single girl supposed to make for dinner in 15 minutes? I think the French might have an answer for that... P.S. Hot milk with a dash of vanilla really quells those ice cream cravings when it's 30 degrees out! Sent from Yahoo! Mail on Android |
