“A Cold Saturday Night”

Sunday, October 12th, 2008

“A Penny Saved…”

Friday, October 10th, 2008

The Knights of Monte Carlo! Although when we walked into the Viper ... See Full Entry »

Thanksgiving in Boston (2006)

Home watching Dateline and waiting for my artichokes to steam.  I'm attempting this recipe: http://wanderingchopsticks.blogspot.com/2007/05/atiso-atiso-but-i-am-speaking-english.html I have never even bought artichokes before, let alone attempt to cook them, but they were on sale at Ralphs and I'm a sucker for a bargain.  I like artichoke dip and artichoke hearts, so I should like this right?
