Shameless plug here. I just so happened to have posted a Brazillian recipe for Caldinho de Feijão (a Brazilian black bean side dish) just a couple of days ago in this forum.

LOL!!!! I had never heard that before...!

Unusually warm, windy and wet.

New dinnerware is always so much fun!!!!! I got myself a 47 piece set with service for 8, serving dishes, tea pot and assorted sugar and milk holders. I have a set of square white dinner plates for special occasions.

I hear you Chami. I'm on a mission to lose 10lbs by June 15th. I'm doing 40 minutes of walking a day plus 30 minutes tae bo and I'm cutting down desserts to once a week and wine to one glass a week. Let's see how that goes.

Prayers for you and John. You are very strong.

I simply crush a garlic clove and pour melted butter over it in a ramekin. Then I refrigerate it until it gets solid again

Prayers to your friend.

I went to a churrascaria this weekend.. YUM!

Vegas girl, be sure to tell the waiter that you can't take spicey foods. I like butter chicken is always a safe alternative for those that are sensitive to it. As for me... Bring on the heat!

It's larger, the size of a green pea to be exact so you need to actually cook it, unlike the instant variety of couscous that just needs to be covered in boiling water to be prepared.

A woman after my own heart. I make mine in my pressure cooker, and I use sage as my "green" flavor. Bring on the parmesan cheese.

I discovered this ingredient with Christine Cushing Live show a few years ago and bought some of it last year. I had a recipe for it in the Bon Appetit of this month. I ended up completly changing the original recipe since my super market had neither squash nor raddichio - I used mushrooms...

I'm baaaaack! (sorry if I fell off the planet.. heck the system even reprimanded for being gone so long.. I started a new job!) ---------- Caldinho de Feijão (Brazilian side dish) Ingredients: 2 cups of black beans (soaked overnight) 4 ½ cups of water 1 onion 4-5 cloves of garlic ¾ of a...

I think the most important thing is to think local produce more than organic. Sure, you can buy organic oranges, but if they travelled several thousands of kilometers.. What's the point?

Oh yes! Big mess XD I'm convinced that it makes a great facial therapy. The only inconvenience is picking the fibres out of your teeth but so small compared to the joy of eating a just ripe mango.

I will defenetly give this recipe a try! Pumpkin is my absolute favorite.

I watched for the second time Little Miss Sunshine. I really loved the movie.

I eat mangos right off the pit... But if you really want to cook with them, I made a wonderful mango mousse. I took the recipe from my "Better Homes and Gardens: The Cookbook". It was pure decadence, and really put forward the uniquely creamy sweet taste of the mango fruit.

Aria, I would dry roast them in a skillet over a low flame. As soon as they become aromatic, take them off the heat and season to taste.

I went there twice when I was in Boston on business trips. I liked it very much. The seafood was very nice.

I'm having Foul Medames since I'm eating alone this evening. My beau is working until late and this is the only time I can enjoy it.

cjs... OMGS! Decadence. I love combining Pumpkin and chocolate. It always makes such a light, fluffy and moist cake/bread. I am going to give this one a shot! Vera... YUM!!! I can feel my thurder thighs growling.. :lol:

I'm a vegetarian chef although I am an omnivore. I have quite a few recipes in my blog which are vegetarian and vegan friendly. Just make sure you have your grains and your beans together to make your proteins ;)
