It’s A Soup Day!

Looks like everyone is busy today, so I’ll blog while I cook. The recipe inside is a little labor intensive, but worth it. I always double it! Creamy Potato, Bacon and Cheese Soup!

Are You Ready For A Labor Day Weekend Foodie Post?

Are You Ready For A Labor Day Weekend Foodie Post?

It’s been a while since we had a foodie thread.  As usual, please share your recipes in the comment section.

Have you ever made pizza on the grill?  No?  Well, you’re missing out.  This pizza is amazing.  Do not be daunted by dough making.  The olive oil in the dough makes for easy kneading – or if you have a KitchenAid mixer with a dough hook even better.

Perfecting this pizza took several tries (it was delicious every time) due to the speed at which it cooks.  Below the recipe I’ll include some helpful hints!

QOD — Where’s the Best BBQ in Delaware?

Actually, let’s make it this question — where’s the Best BBQ in two hours driving distance from Wilmington? Feel free to recommend places further away though — I was talking to a friend this morning about a day trip for BBQ.

Happy Thanksgiving – Let’s Cook!

Filed in Delaware by on November 22, 2012 10 Comments

I have some time before the teenagers wake up, so I thought I’d try and put up a Thanksgiving foodie thread!  This year I’m trying some new recipes, along with my son’s favorites – since he just returned home from college and deserves some special treatment!

I’m sticking with Turkey as the main course, but having some fun with the side dishes.

Chag Kosher V’Sameach

Filed in International by on April 6, 2012 5 Comments

That’s the traditional Passover greeting – a Happy, Kosher Passover. Tonight, Jews around the world will sit down with family and friends and recount the story of the Exodus from Egypt thousands of years ago. I’m not passing judgement on whether this is a true story or not (and I ask that you don’t either in the comments), but it is a typical Jewish holiday – they tried to kill us, we won, let’s eat.

Weekend Foodie Thread

Filed in Delaware by on May 22, 2010 11 Comments

There’s a reason I don’t post our daily Open Thread.  My last “Weekend Foodie Thread” was in December!  But since Spring has sprung, fresh veggies have returned and grills are being fired up I’m feeling inspired.  And… I was asked about why I haven’t posted on this at the last Drinking Liberally! Let’s start with […]

The Calorie Tax

Filed in National by on March 2, 2010 13 Comments

We’ve spent a whole year talking about health care reform in our country but have spent very little time talking about lifestyle reform. As a calorie-watcher, I know how difficult it is to purchase the right kinds of foods. More nutritious foods are more expensive and don’t keep as long. The results of a new […]

What to do on a snowy day?  At the Pandora household we’re making pasta – and, um, drinking mimosas.  Now, I’ve made pasta in the past, but today we’re using our new Imperia pasta machine.  This is an old fashioned, hand cranked, clamp to the counter machine – that weighs a ton and provides directions […]

With both feet and beaucoups d’avoirdupois firmly planted in the “Live to Eat” camp, I pay tribute to my fellow foodies and highlight the Best Cook Books of 2009. From Eat Me Daily, a distinguished group of DIY’s. Also, check out that Bacon Christmas Tree Postcard. As always, one of the most valuable features of […]

Weekend Foodie Thread

Filed in National by on December 5, 2009 5 Comments

Tis the season for company, so this week I’d like to focus on stupid easy, but delicious, appetizers.   Ideally, these should be recipes you… well… don’t need to look at a recipe to submit here and ingredients you usually have in the house. I’m scheduled for my end of the year Costco run, and I […]

Weekend Foodie Thread

Ciao!  Let’s talk pasta.  Being Italian pasta always fell under the quick, throw together meal.  I never realized,  until I started serving these dishes to my friends, that most people just opened a jar of sauce and dumped it on noodles.  *shudder*  (FYI, pasta should be added to the sauce and tossed to coat.)   Also, […]

Since last week’s Foodie Thread was such a big hit – can’t wait to try out all the recipes! – let’s give it another go.  This week’s theme is “meals in under 30 minutes.”  (And this week I have measurements!) I’ll begin with one of the easiest and most delicious recipes in my arsenal… Creamy […]

Weekend Foodie Thread

Seems DL has quite a few foodies.   So let’s see how this goes. This week I’d like to discuss and share Thanksgiving recipes.  In future weeks the theme will change, but I thought that keeping each thread to a theme would make searching for recipes easier.  Any other suggestions are welcome… and probably desperately needed!
