New design

I'm trying a new design that is much more eye appealing.  I lost the guestbook as it didn't do what I wanted (you could only post one comment).  PLUS NO ONE was posting comments anyway.
I got a posting in mind regarding Cousin Mike's Zesty sauce, and even though that meal happened a week or so ago, that will be the next post more then likely.  Tonight is rest of filet mignon steaks with green beans and broccoli.  Nothing too exciting, so I will spare you.

I may start begging soon, but I sure would like to see MUCH more interaction on this site.
I get emails/messages AL THE TIME regarding my cooking posts, but so far, not many comments on the blog.  I know that having to be a "member" is somewhat of a deterrent, but please sign up so you can post your comments.

Have a recipe you want me to try and post?
Think I'm full of it?
Think I shouldn't waste me time with such inane ventures?
Hate steak?
Hate Kale chips?
Love Kale chips?

I've had one recipe challenge from my friend, and restauranteur, Marty Roper, but it uses noodles, and we are watching carbs now, so it will have to be amended or postponed.  Its Tuna Steak, so I'm very anxious to try it!

I  will gladly entertain any and all challenges.  I like cooking and figuring out things I have not tried before, so make it difficult.

I need to go water my garden, so stop talking to me!!!!!!!!!!!

    Never tried Kale chips, but I love other veggie chips (eggplant, turnip, carrot, etc.) I will let you know what I think once I try them.

VIDEO of me throwing pizza dough

I've already blogged about this meal so I wont bore you, but I made Jamie Oliver's, from scratch, pizza recipe (dough and sauce) again tonight. So I could make a blog entry I had Dutchie take this video.  We did it twice for the obvious fact that I wanted close ups....We DO own a video production company, in case you forgot. This is just me tossing the dough and not creating the whole pizza. Let me know what you think of the video.  Is it better than photos? Dang the pizzas were good. Made one pepperoni (turkey pepperoni), one cheese and garlic (by far the best one) and the third was half cheese and half turkey pepp!

What have my efforts paid off with so far in the garden....

I look forward to writing about the meals that these will one day become.  I never had a green thumb and  would regularly kill plants.  Watching some home and garden television, trial and error, lots of patience and hard work, and I think I'm finally starting to have a "yield" out of my garden.  Mainly just a meal or two, here and there, along with several supplemental meal roles per plant.  I'm set on herbs, will be rolling in peaches, and hope to get enough figs to enjoy a few and make some preserves. watercress Basil  chives  dill blackberries  figs  cilantro  grapes  Green Beans  jalapenos  lavender  mint  oregano  peaches  raspberries  sage  squash blossom  squash   thyme  heirloom tomatos

Tilapia En Papillote, which is just a fancy way of saying cooked in a paper bag.

I had dinner with some friends of this weekend. I promised her that I wouldn't blog about her, so lets just call  her Suzy!  Now, "Suzy" is a great cook, and I have enjoyed many meals over the years courtesy of her hands.  She did not ruin her winning streak, and cooked a red snapper wrapped in a parchment pouch with herbs and lemons.  It was so good, that it inspired me to use this method for my flock, the very next day. I repeat, the following photos are NOT from "Suzy", hers looked much better.  These photos are instead, my version of  Tilapia  En Papillote with Polenta and Arugela with Mango Sauce. I'm proud to say that I was able to whip this one up from items I  had in the garden, pantry and freezer.  Frozen tilapia is awesome to  have around, a few minutes thawing in some warm water, and fresh seafood. I choose oregano and sage for the herbs, and I rested the fish on  a leaf of kale.  I sprinkled with salt and t
