Some of my earliest baking memories revolve around sore and tired arms and hands from sifting for my mom. At the time, I was thrilled to just be a part of the process. But being assigned the sifting job definitely wasn’t my favorite kitchen task.
I also have similar memories from early on in my own [...]
When I’m cooking, I rarely use exact measurements. In fact, I generally never measure anything at all. However, I’ve learned that accurate measuring is so important when it comes to baking. I’ve been guilty of just winging it on measuring when baking with very poor results. Or when I do try to get an exact [...]

I can be a bit dorky when it comes to culinary terms; I like them. Using them makes me sound like I know what I’m talking about. Mise en place (pronounced meez-ahn-plahss) is one of those terms. Literally translated from French, it means “setting in place.” Or in other words, it means having all of [...]

Like Mother, Like Daughter. We are a family who live in Central Massachusetts. My husband is a Boston Irish Catholic from a big family. His upbringing was smack dab in the middle of respectable Catholic America, not untinged by 60s unrest.

My upbringing was smack dab in the middle of 70s hippie snotty know-it-all America, not untinged by anomie.
