Fun and Durable: Retroneu Pinch Mirror


In college, my flatware was the cheapest set I could find at The Christmas Store. I think I spent a whopping $2 or $3 on it. And when you spend $2 or $3, it shows. The cute black handles didn’t attach well to the metal part, and the knives were like cutting with a frayed […]

My New KitchenAid Friend: The SideSwipe


I love my Kitchen-Aid Mixer. It’s big and red and powerful (get your mind out of the gutter) and it makes all my baking dreams come true . . . Okay, that last one might be taking it a step too far, but seriously, I love my Kitchen-Aid. Everything from whipped cream to mashed potatoes […]

Review: Spice Stacker


I’ve gone through several different storage methods for my spices.

So who I am? I’m a journalist, writer, editor, mother and wife from Connecticut. Born and raised in New York, I was the takeout-queen in college. Ask me about any of the delivery joints around Barnard College circa 2001 and I will tell you what rocked and what didn’t. But in around the time I got married, I learned to love my kitchen and now strive to eat homemade, local food whenever possible. I am also author of the upcoming cookbook Families Eat Together: Fresh, Healthy Cooking No Matter How Much Time You Have, due out in 2008 from Ladder Press. A two time judge of the Food Blog Awards (2006 and 2007), I’m active in the food blogging community and love the connections that I’ve made over food.
