How I Eat Eggs, and You?
My favorite way to eat eggs for breakfast is to cook over-easy in a small amount of butter. 1 slice of really good bread, lightly toasted and torn into bite size pieces, not buttered, just dry. I like to tear the toast in the kitchen. Then all I need at the table is a knife […]
In My Kitchen October 2012
I went to the new posts reader this morning and saw Celia’s new “In My Kitchen ” post at Fig Jam and Lime Cordial and was shocked at how fast time has flown by. Yikes! It has been over 2 weeks since I have posted anything. Guess when life gets busy, things slip by without […]

Bread Insanity: Baking Bread on the Grill
I have Bread Insanity. I hope it isn’t contagious. Ever since last August I have made all of our bread. Today, we are completely out so I need to make some. This is the hottest record-breaking heat wave this area has seen since the 1800′s. Today it is 105°F outside with at least 80% humidity […]
Bimini Memory
While in college at the University of Miami, we went to Bimini one weekend on Chalks Airlines. Chalks only operated hydro-planes which means they take off and land in the water. On Bimini, at the time, there were only two hotels, Browns Hotel and The Compleat Angler, which was where we stayed. It was quite […]
The Bread Show
We had a wonderful weekend in the North Carolina mountains visiting friends. This post is to provide a quick link to the bread show we did on Charlotte Cooks not too long ago. In my mind, the show was a comedy of errors with too hot lights, dough rising way too fast in response to […]
Chocolate Cherry Bread
Believe it or not, this is not sweet chocolate cherry bread. It would be fantastic with grilled or smoked chicken or ham and honey mustard sandwiches with bread and butter pickles. Chocolate cherry bread also makes great breakfast. I have been perfecting a no-knead formula. Trying out different things, discovering what the dough can and […]
“Charlotte Cooks” Bread
In January, we filmed an episode of “Charlotte Cooks” about making no knead bread. The episode was released and began airing on TV and You Tube on April 2. The comedy of errors that went with the taping, I think, were glaringly obvious. The process made me think this is how Lucy Ricardo would have […]
Sourdough Rye Bread with Caraway and Onion
I was longing for a nice chewy sourdough rye bread with onions and caraway and a good crust the other day. So I decided to make a rye sour first. Taking 1/2 cup of regular sour dough starter, at feeding time I fed it with: 1/3 cup rye flour 1/3 cup water ( between 90-100°F) […]
