Backyard Orchards Are Busting Out All Over
Have you ever read Gravity's Rainbow? In the book there's a guy who has a banana tree in London, in a greenhouse on the roof of a building. Being fiction and all, I'm sure it's not a very reliable source, but maybe the guy from Williamsburg should have tried a little glassing-in project.

Banana nut muffins, like my mom makes, and apple juice.

Cook the Book: Chocolate Sablés
My favorite chocolate recipe is for an amazing chocolate cheesecake. The recipe is actually on a postcard I picked up from the "Free" pile at the local independent bookstore. I think it was part of a promotion for some recipe book. What a find! The cheesecake is dark, dense, crustless, and overwhelmingly delicious.

Give me a refreshing Gordon's Cup made with cucumber and limes - you can add a splash of Midori for extra pizazz!

Cherry limeade, made with club soda and not plain water. Fizzy and fresh and cold, it hits all the right spots.
