So, you all have heard I am doing a cross country trip with my family for the month of December 12 – January 12th 2012. We’re ringing in the New Year in Austin, Texas – celebrating the Festival of Lights in Arlington and Great Falls, VA and Christmas in Washington DC! My husband’s birthday will fall somewhere between New York City (where we’re eating for a few days) and Chicago… In the meantime I am keeping copious food notes via Foodspotting when I have a brief moment of internet and/or clarity. Thus far, the 22nd of December, I realize I haven’t posted since 2 weeks before my trip began (and the crunch of getting ready to go!) So here’s my news and a link to get you on the journey, with me. You can also check out my twitter stream – I’m mControl and happy to be your guide this (more…)

Holiday Challah! Gluten-Free Style Channukah Treat

November 29, 2011

Gluten-free challah represents a bit of a ‘Holy Grail’ for #GF Jews. There’s no obvious substitute for tearing apart and sharing bread with your friends and family, and for many who are gluten intolerant, it becomes painfully obvious each Friday at sundown when they must hover for Shabbat prayers around a cutting board bearing a hot, delicious braided challah.

One writer stated, “The first time I had to sing the hamotzi over a rice cracker while everyone else ripped apart the bread, I cried.”

Edited to add: I was recently ‘schooled’ on my #GF flours – and spelt is a TYPE OF WHEAT!!! Leave it to the non-GF girlfriend to blow it! So it is NOT GF! Further… my Tom Sawyer Flour is made of RICE flour (I suppose that’s sort of an ancient grain) not spelt, at all. And while I could simply change all the text to reflect (more…)

Breakfast For Health – Smart Children, Healthy Breakfast

November 26, 2011
Thumbnail image for Breakfast For Health – Smart Children, Healthy Breakfast

Parents, from generations, have been telling their kids to have a healthy breakfast. Medical Science has now confirmed it that children who eat healthy breakfast show better progress in education and sports in comparison to those who do not. Healthy children, in other words, have a habit of eating nutritious breakfast food. In this one of my many breakfast articles, I would try to explain why breakfast is important for children health.

Quick Fix

Unlike most other meals that we prepare, making breakfast does not ask for a lot of time, and a high level of expertise. It is a portable meal. Your child can grab a healthy bit on his way to school. Believe it or not, but breakfast is definitely the most FLEXIBLE meal of the day. (more…)

Food Photography Is MORE than Just Good Food

November 9, 2011
Thumbnail image for Food Photography Is MORE than Just Good Food

We devour our food first with senses other than taste before we actually try a dish. So I’m fair certain I don’t have to tell you how important it is to take great food photos, particularly if you are writing a foodie blog. I know I eat first with my eyes and it’s much harder to get me all hot and bothered over a dish if an unappetizing photo sits next to it. Just like in a restaurant – if the dish presented looks incredible you begin salivating before lifting your fork – you want to photograph it to remember its perfection and when you look back at that photo on your iPhone, you hope the lighting is able to show your friends just how good the dish actually was.

I know tons of blog writers feel that they don’t have the time or perhaps even, the proper resources to (more…)

Grown Up Birthday’s Require Grown Up Cake *Recipe*

October 17, 2011
Thumbnail image for Grown Up Birthday’s Require Grown Up Cake *Recipe*

You know, I’ve never really considered myself much of a pack rat, (I’m sure my husband would disagree – just not out-loud). I don’t generally have an issue getting rid of things that sit around or are of no more use to me – except in my kitchen, or as it relates to my kitchen. I had more issues of Bon Appetit than your average domestic goddess, they dated back to the 80s. I know, right? Then there was my shoe boxes stuffed with family recipes. The kind you write down on the back of an electric bill or the ones your mother lovingly transcribed onto one of those adorable recipe cards with the little hand drawn pies in the corners and gave you when you got married. This is one of those recipes. I’ve made it a handful of times, the last being more than 10 years ago. But (more…)
