food love and yearning

I have just finished catching up on the archives of Bread & Honey. Oh, I so need to be back in the kitchen. I bookmarked roughly nine hundred (give or take, y'know) recipes from this blog.

Oh Food, how I miss you.

In the meantime: a snack and a food fail (bad news first):


My attempt at chow mein (except when I looked it up on epicurious, it matched more closely with the definition for lo mein). I got a recipe for chow mein from Cooking Light, but I made several changes. I was not impressed, which is too bad, because this made a ton of food. I don't believe I'll try this again.


I have gone through a major cracker phase lately. I still haven't made my own crackers (but they are on the to-make list), so I've just been eating the thirty million crackers we bought from Costco. Cracker, colby jack, Gala apple slices; place under broiler until melty. Mmm. Good, quick snack.
