- Food: Carbonara cool — Creamy comfort food becomes summer salad
- May 15, 2013
- Pasta carbonara — richly cheesy, creamy and studded with crisped pancetta — is easily one of the most comforting of pasta dishes. The only trouble is, with the onset of warmer weather we tend to crave salads more than steaming bowls of pasta. So for this recipe, we decided to have it both ways.

- May 8, 2013

- April 17, 2013
- One of my favorite party tricks is to use cedar wood planks for both cooking and serving. One of my tried and true party appetizers that works with this technique is a grilled glazed Brie with fresh fruit.
- Food: A springy take on a winter favorite
- Fresh veggies, shrimp lighten up hearty gnocchi

- Food: Elegant salad embraces fresh, crisp flavor of raw asparagus
- April 3, 2013

- Food: Simple tartlets make stunning Easter treats
- March 27, 2013

- Food: Blini and caviar — A healthy take on haute cuisine
- February 13, 2013
- Watching the Oscars, like the Super Bowl, has become almost an unofficial holiday, an occasion when tens of millions of us get together for an old-fashioned TV viewing party, complete with abundant food and drink. But the two events require rather different menus. An Oscar party calls for slightly more elevated fare, and I can think of no hors d’oeuvres more appropriate than blini topped with caviar.

Point of View
What do you think about a proposed ban on smoking in public places such as restaurants, bars and workplaces?
As much as I hate government interfering with our lives, I love the smoking ban. Going out in Lawrence is so nice without smelling cigarette smoke at your table while eating.
