coconut yogurt

After all these years, we still love little yogurts. It's a little dishonest maybe, or at least evidence of my claim that I'm no militant. Because while I've repeated the origin story of my current career over and over for years now, my grocery cart still might hold the unexpected. ...

My editor once told me that she has to bake immediately upon returning from a trip. It doesn't matter how much laundry and unpacking I'm supposed to be doing, she told me as she fed me a buttermilk cake at one of our meetings. I need the kitchen to know that I'm back. We had quite a time these ...

Last week on of those perfect hot/cool nights, we sat out on the porch and drank mojitos and ate green chile cheeseburgers. The dog hung out calm and mellow and not barking at the neighbors, and my sister brought her new blue portable record player out onto the porch and put it on a chair and ...

I woke up the other day in a not-so-good place. It wasn't anything specific that put me there, but at the time it felt like a small storm of 2 weeks before book deadline/ money panic/ fear about how this book will be received/ what happened to the summer/ what will I do next/ and so on and so on. ...

I never get sick of talking about yogurt. My (very kind and brilliant) agent gets on my case about this, so much so that I can hear his voice in my head as soon as I launch into my story about the magic of home culturing with anyone who wants to know how I got into all this crazy homemade stuff. ...

When I talk about my yogurt maker, I usually encounter one of two reactions. The first is, "Oh my, I need one of those now! I'm off to buy my very own," or better yet, (and just as often) someone will admit that they actually have a yogurt maker gathering dust in the back of their closet, but ...

I finally put a few seeds in the ground, and then I watched the chipmunks dig them up. My nails are dirty, and the wind is whipping, and I am drinking so much black tea. And I finished the book, really this time. (I hope!) Yesterday I went to New York and I had a meeting in the Random House ...

I am grateful for the inner beauty of the celeriac. I'm not fooled by that leather jacket- I know that inside it is delicate and silky, fancy and French, scented like heaven. In the fall, I made soups and stews, and I admired the sensual topography of the noble root on my counter top. But now, under ...

October might just be my favorite month for cooking. The cold air drives me straight to the stove, and the garden is still spitting out more produce than I can manage. The squash are taking over, but at the same time there are those few plants that are hanging on till they are done in by the frost, ...
