Big Sister Zoe: March 2011
http://bigsisterzoe.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Before I had my child, I thought that I understood the limits of my heart. It's extraordinary to have all those limits thrown out." - Uma Thurman. Sunday, March 27, 2011. Being 3 is exhausting! Since she slept through Friday night's bath, I gave her a bath Saturday morning, and I'm always amazed how good her hair looks when it dries naturally and isn't slept on. I'm not sure why that would surprise me, as the same is true for my own curly locks! Then she and Daddy were on to nest building. She though...

Jamie's Green Kitchen: Coconut Cupcakes
http://jamiesgreenkitchen.blogspot.com/2010/02/coconut-cupcakes.html
Thursday, February 11, 2010. It's finally my turn! Each month, two different Barefoot Blogger members get to choose which recipe the group makes. I decided to choose a cupcake recipe, and with Ina Garten. This is the only one to choose! 3/4 pound (3 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature. 5 extra-large eggs at room temperature. 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract. 1 1/2 teaspoons pure almond extract. 1 teaspoon baking powder. 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt. A, and salt. In 3 p...

Jamie's Green Kitchen: November 2009
http://jamiesgreenkitchen.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 29, 2009. Thanks to Suzie from Munch and Nibble. For forcing me to make my favorite restaurant. Dessert. Whenever I go out and get to choose dessert, I choose creme brulee. The mix of sweet and creamy finishes off a meal with just the right note. So why hadn't I made it before? I have no idea! This was a great recipe that would be perfect for entertaining, because you can make the custard ahead of time and just torch it after dinner. 4 extra-large egg yolks. 3 cups heavy cream. A weekend...

Jamie's Green Kitchen: Fontina Mac & Cheese
http://jamiesgreenkitchen.blogspot.com/2010/07/fontina-mac-cheese.html
Monday, July 19, 2010. Fontina Mac and Cheese. Since taking my little blogging break, I've been saving new recipes to make once I started up again. Not that I haven't been cooking at all, but for some reason I felt bad every time that I made a new recipe and didn't share it with you. So I've been cooking my old favorites for the last couple months, and I couldn't wait to break out this new recipe. 1 lb small or medium pasta shells. 5 tbsp. unsalted butter, divided. 1 cup heavy cream. Bake until the sauce...

Before I had my child, I thought that I understood the limits of my heart. It's extraordinary to have all those limits thrown out." - Uma Thurman. Saturday, November 13, 2010. A November day at the Beach. Oh, yes, that would be Cate. barefoot. in the water. in Maine. in November. It was all her idea, and interestingly, she was not the only barefoot person on the beach, and not the only kid to take a little dip in the water! Thank goodness I brought a dry change of clothes!

Before I had my child, I thought that I understood the limits of my heart. It's extraordinary to have all those limits thrown out." - Uma Thurman. Friday, August 19, 2011. House update- for non-Facebookers :). I realized this picture is from a few weeks ago- so now there is grass, the front porch is done, and there are steps up to the porch. But you get the idea. Back deck from inside the screened in porch. Family room - taken from the kitchen. Hardwoods- in living room, dining room, and kitchen.

Jamie's Green Kitchen: Individual Meat Loaves
http://jamiesgreenkitchen.blogspot.com/2010/03/individual-meat-loaves.html
Friday, March 12, 2010. This week's Barefoot Bloggers. Choice was made by Tonya of What's On My Plate. These mini meatloaves were super savory and yummy. They made an easy weeknight meal that was a big hit for the guys in my house (they love any meal that is meat and potatoes! I loved that these meatloaves weren't coated in a sickly sweet sauce like most recipes I've tried. I may try this recipe in a full size meatloaf to see if it may be my new go-to meatloaf. 8226; 1 tablespoon good olive oil. Okay, so...

Above, Cate is modeling an outfit her Nana Davis brought up for her this summer (notice the ballet slippers with it! And the picture at the bottom is another outfit from Nana. For some reason, she had to wear both of them today. Mommy: Cate, what are you doing in the basement? Please come out of the basement.

Jamie's Green Kitchen: June 2009
http://jamiesgreenkitchen.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 29, 2009. Another super summery Barefoot Bloggers. Thanks this week to Maryl of My Bit of Earth. For making me step out of my box again. This cold soup was a really great accompaniment to our fancy chili dog dinner last night. I added sliced avocado as a garnish, because it improves everything it touches. Phillip would have preferred this dish without the red pepper, but he would prefer his entire life without them so he isn't the one to ask! 2 red bell peppers, cored and seeded. 6 tablespoo...
