p.s...I added smoked paprika and some chilies when I made it.

I've never had squash spaetzle before, but that sounds like a whole lot of deliciousness.

I loved the Cowgirl Seahorse review. I am so excited to see that his reviews are at once focused on the nuances of the food, but open to the many levels of eating - whether it is for art, comfort, or simple fun.

add a fried egg on top, and you're in business.

This is so wonderful! I grew up in a neighborhood of Italian immigrants and remember eating food exactly like this at their houses. Except I remember there being a thin, tart red sauce over the beef slices instead of the salsa verde. Nonetheless, I'm really grateful for the recipe - always looking to recreate the flavors of my childhood.

I grew up in a family of friendly vultures. Anything, on any plate, was fair game. By the time I went to college, I had associated sharing food with "hey, I like you". Well, the first day of college my roommate had a box of oreos. I, naturally, snatched a few. She, in a polite way, told me that they were hers. I was crushed! I was completely convinced that she utterly hated me, and couldn't understand why she was being so nice 10 minutes later.
Obviously, I learned that some people are just not sharers.

What a sweet video! I love how deliriously happy Rick looks when he's on the tractor or handling his plants. It's clear that those fruits and vegetables and grown with great love.

Italiagirl, your fantasy and mine are exactly the same.A luncheonette with a garden out back for fresh veg in the spring/summer; in the fall and winter bowls of soups and fresh bread that make you feel like you're wearing a warm blanket. I dream all the time about it...

I always like adding some ham or bacon!

Oh, Ed...those photos are torturous. I would like a sunny nook, some tea, and a big slice of the olive oil cake, please.

On my walk this morning I detected a hint of cinnamon roll wafting out of a house, and I haven't stopped craving some form of breakfast pastry since. This will do nicely!

This sounds like such a lovely sandwich - smokey ham mingled with creamy avocado can only be a good thing.

beautiful, crusty, crackly french baguette. They come out of the oven and disappear within 5 minutes (along with a stick of butter!)
