Analysis of Decisions: Desperate House-not-so-much-Wife: Summertime
http://bymypen.blogspot.com/2009/06/desperate-house-not-so-much-wife.html
Sunday, June 28, 2009. 1 Something I've noticed about other people: So I love answering this question: "So since you're a teacher, what do you DO in the summer? My tired answer has been of late: "Well, I take one day at a time." Why would I respond so curtly? 2 Something I've noticed about myself: I have what appears to be the beginnings of a spider vein on my right ankle. What do I do? How can I prevent varicose veins and spider veins? Do not cross your legs when sitting. "Got it". I hope that was as fu...

Analysis of Decisions: Dave Carnegie and Tyler Durdin
http://bymypen.blogspot.com/2009/07/dale-carnegie-and-tyler-durdin.html
Thursday, July 23, 2009. Dave Carnegie and Tyler Durdin. Fight Club and The Hiding Place: Dissatisfied members of corporate America and Christians hiding Jews. Similarity? Opposition to self and opposition to brute force.at least that's what I thought about on my bike ride today, lost in the boonies of a nearby neighborhood. If you're still reading, here's the connection I'm getting at: Corrie Ten Boom mentions using Dave Carnegie's strategy of getting people to like you (talking in terms of their intere...

Spangles: Pesto Pesto Pesto!
http://lizspangler.blogspot.com/2014/02/pesto-pesto-pesto.html
Tuesday, February 11, 2014. Isn't pesto one of the most splendid sauces? Which amounts to me having an allergy of pine nuts that results in all food tasting like metal for about a week after eating pine nuts. Truth be told, I love pine nuts, but I have not eaten them since that incident. We usually shop at a wonderful place call WinCo. Onward to Fred Meyer. And so we found ourselves a pine nut free pesto recipe in Sylvia Sebastiani's Mangiamo. And proceeded like this:. 1 to 2 sprigs parsley. Combine basi...

Spangles: Minestrone della Famiglia
http://lizspangler.blogspot.com/2014/01/minestrone-della-famiglia.html
Monday, January 27, 2014. In the midst of making this recipe, I almost felt like I should update my facebook relationship status. Because getting involved with this soup is a serious commitment. Then I considered how my husband would take the news, and I continued chopping. After enjoy the comforting freshness of this soup whose recipe was taken from The Italian Country Tabl. E by Lynne Rossetto Kasper, I felt like it was worth it. So here we go. The first round of sauteing (onions, carrots, beans):.

Spangles: Frittata with Leeks and Herbs
http://lizspangler.blogspot.com/2014/01/frittata-with-leeks-and-herbs.html
Friday, January 31, 2014. Frittata with Leeks and Herbs. This was a super simple dish from The World Kitchen. White and tender green parts only. Salt and freshly ground pepper. Mixed minced fresh flat-leaf parsley, basil, and mint. Freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Melt the butter in an ovenproof 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the leeks, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring, until softened, about 15 minutes. You may need to reduce the heat to keep the leeks from browning too much. Recipe ...

Spangles: The Italian Wine Case
http://lizspangler.blogspot.com/2014/01/italian-wine-case.html
Tuesday, January 28, 2014. The Italian Wine Case. Oh boy oh boy do we enjoy wine! My parents raised me to appreciate many of the finer things in life, and wine is high on that list. So of course an integral part of our culinary questing is wine. We have been investigating and trying a variety of options for purchasing wine, and one we have particularly enjoyed is Virgin Wines. Which brings me to The Italian Case. Collezione di Paolo Chianti. Villa Farnia di Farnese Montepulciano. View my complete profile.

Spangles: Rosemary and Romano Focaccia
http://lizspangler.blogspot.com/2014/02/rosemary-and-romano-focaccia.html
Monday, February 03, 2014. Rosemary and Romano Focaccia. My husband was keen on this Italian culinary quest because it meant exploring some fun breads. He really enjoys making breads. I am thankful for this, because I have no real desire to dive into that realm. But as a culinary team we cover more ground. Winning! But He dug out his amazing and incredible cookbook- The Professional Pastry Chef. Right So because I was also occupied in the kitchen making minestrone, and we may have had one or two other co...

Spangles: Barley Mountain Soup
http://lizspangler.blogspot.com/2014/02/barley-mountain-soup.html
Friday, February 14, 2014. This is one delinquent blogger. First of all, I didn't take any pictures of this soup. And then there's the issue of posting about a not-so-romantic dish on Valentine's Day. Here we are doing this Italian culinary quest! So romantic, right? I mean, here's. All the evidence you need of Italian food being romantic. And on this fine fourteen of February, I give you barley. mountain. soup. I'm never going to make it in this blogging world. 2 large garlic cloves. About 4 quarts water.

Spangles: Orecchiette with Sausage
http://lizspangler.blogspot.com/2014/02/orecchiette-with-sausage.html
Friday, February 21, 2014. I thought I was choosing a simple recipe. I thought it was going to be a quick Monday-night-after-work prep. Suffice it to say, this recipe did not go well for us. However, I still think it's a rather simple recipe, and should you actually have broccoli rabe and know how to not fail at cooking orecchiette, you should assuredly be fine. And I will say, despite all the issues, in the end our meal tasted alright, it just wasn't so much the most wonderful process. Bring a large pot...
