Cook the Book: The Cornbread Gospels
My favorite cornbread is made from a recipe in my Betty Crocker wedding edition cookbook. Its comes together in no time, is baked in an 8x8 dish and comes out sweet, moist and just dense enough. YUM!

Eating for Two: What to Eat While Pregnant
Thank you for this post! I am not pregnant now nor do I plan to have my first child for several years, but the idea of eating healthily and keeping pregnancy weight gain within the healthy range has been something I have always been interested in and plan to keep a careful eye on when I do become pregnant. Best wishes for a wonderful pregnancy!

Cook the Book: The Serious Eats Chocolate Lover's Library
My mom's family's chocolate sauce: a measure of cocoa (I generally go for a cup), twice that measure of sugar, mix the two, mix in a measure of water that is halfway between your cocoa and sugar measurements, pinch of salt, boil. The longer you boil, the more like thick fudge sauce it will be once it is cooled. Keeps in the fridge for several weeks...if it there's any of it left to be put away once I'm finished with it warm from the pan.

The Only Valentine's Day Chocolate Guide You'll Ever Need
I went to Lilliebelle Farm's store in Oregon last fall and met Jeff, the man behind the chocolate, and of course had to take home some of the Smokey Blue Truffles. You can't go wrong with any of his chocolates. The fruit filled bonbons (swoon), the ganache filled chocolates, the strawberry balsamic pate de fruit (oh my gosh); all of it = YUM.

Ed Levine's Serious Diet: Week 1
Eating small portions of whatever I wanted helped me lose weight...and I wasn't even trying. After a trip to Italy where I ate great food, but only had access at mealtimes as I was with an organized tour, I came back wanting to eat when and because I was hungry and stop overeating. That's where the small portions of the things I already ate came into play; the weight fell off. Lots of water, aiming for 30 grams of fiber a day, and eating a small snack every 3 hours or so will also help. Why don't you set a date in your mind (maybe March 1 or something similar) and work toward that date so that when that days comes and you weigh in you will see what persistance can do for you and how those little pounds here and there can really add up. You can do it!

Eating for Two: What to Eat While Pregnant
I know it's been a year since you wrote this, but I typed in "what to eat while pregnant", and this came up. I was wondering how everything was going with the new baby? We have sooo much in common, it's strange.
Anyway, thank you for easing my mind. I have been eating these chocolate, peanut butter crispy meltaway candies I make like crazy. I justify it by the fact they are organic chocolate and natural peanut butter and high in fiber. LOL. I'm only @ 2 months along. I found out on May 26th I'm pregnant. I'm due January 29th, 2010. I am trying to stay away from the place in my town that makes the best chocolate malt PB milkshakes. Not an easy task, I pass it a few times a week. Well thank you again for the info, I'd love to hear more. :) T.

Tomatoes...there's nothing better than fresh tomatoes!

I just went and picked up stuff for garden today. I got some cucumbers, tomatoes,cantaloupe, onions and jalapeno peppers.
Cook the Book: The River Cottage Cookbook
If I could - I would grow bell peppers, we go through them so quickly. But the deer around here would eat them all and if they didn't get to them, the rabbits, raccoons and other "critters" would!

Asparagus, leeks, shallots, 4 kinds of tomatoes (2 heirloom brandwines), corn, 2 kinds of cucumbers (one is lemon flavored), mixed pan patty squash, mixed radishes, wax beans, carmel flavored canteloupe, 3 kinds of watermelons (one seedless), and blueberries. I love growing unusaual veggies

I'm thinking about cucumbers and tomatoes. I eat these every single day, so I might as well grow my own. Thanks!
Cook the Book: The River Cottage Cookbook
Basil! I just love basil.
Cook the Book: The River Cottage Cookbook
Now that I'm "older", I have several small raised gardens. I have no room for sweet corn, but still grow tomatoes, green peppers, radishes, lettuce, cucumbers, carrots, green beans and a few squash and zucchini. I also have a small strawberry bed. It's surprising how much you can grow, just in small gardens and everything tastes so much better, then what you buy.
Cook the Book: The River Cottage Cookbook
If I had a garden, I'd grow tomoatoes, zucchini, bell peppers, carrots, and garlic. My favorites. I'd also want strawberries.

Tomatoes and a variety of herbs
Cook the Book: The River Cottage Cookbook
In the past, I have grown tomatoes, peppers and onions. Many years later, I still grow the onions and have added dill, mint and chives. I would love to grow corn, but do not have the needed space. Thanks for this opportunity!
