The Omaha Chronicles: Breaking in the New Kitchen
http://omahachronicles.blogspot.com/2009/09/breaking-in-new-kitchen.html
September 14, 2009. Breaking in the New Kitchen. At the very end of August, I moved to a new apartment. When I first saw it's floor plan online, I was intrigued enough to book an appointment. Almost from the very first moment I walked into it, I was smitten. Lots of windows. Great space. High ceilings. And, most important, a kitchen designed for entertaining and cooking - much more so than my last apartment. Somehow, I managed the move and the work travel with only the occasional lapse in sanity. And rem...

The Omaha Chronicles: 380 Books. 46 Cookbooks. One Cooking Challenge.
http://omahachronicles.blogspot.com/2009/03/380-books-46-cookbooks-one-cooking.html
March 16, 2009. 380 Books. 46 Cookbooks. One Cooking Challenge. I like to think I’m a laid back sort. I figure there are times to kick up a fuss (not too often), times to be detailed oriented (like when booking flights or at work) and times to just be chill (most of the rest of the time). However, I can be a wee bit anal retentive about some things. Spelling and grammar are one of those things (though I will not claim to be perfect when it comes to either – that’d be stupid). I am no where near as ambiti...

Fast on the heels of hosting my first dinner party in my new apartment, I invited a couple of my girlfriends over for a "True Blood: Season 2" marathon (thank you hbo ondemand! Knowing we would need plenty of energy to see us through the day, top of mind was making sure we'd have enough food and drink to see us through hours. Of watching Eric and Jason, and wondering who in tarnation thought it was necessary for. Either one of them to bother with wearing a shirt.

http://omahachronicles.blogspot.com/2009/04/easter-orphans-week-after-fact.html
April 19, 2009. Easter Orphans - A week after the fact. Easter has always held a very special place in my heart. On my mother’s side of the family, this is a big family holiday. When I was young, it came complete with all the usual trappings, including a special outfit, Easter eggs and baskets, the Easter egg hunt, and – best of all – a very large Easter dinner. Growing up, Easter dinner was almost always an Easter ham,. Potato salad, baked beans, some. Sort of veggie and bread. This was a tr. And lest y...

The Omaha Chronicles: A Housewarming Dinner Party
http://omahachronicles.blogspot.com/2009/10/housewarming-dinner-party.html
October 24, 2009. A Housewarming Dinner Party. I am, admittedly, a procrastinator. It's not the best of traits to have. However, I'm also a deadline-driven sort. The deadline and the crazier the expectations, the better. Do you have a hand grenade that needs to be defused? After someone pulled the pin? No problem. Got it covered. (well, not an actual hand grenade. i wouldn't know what the heck to do with a hand grenade, but it make. S for an interesting metaphor.). In terms of my cooking challenge. I mad...

No conozco a nadie (que no esté a dieta) que le diga "NO" a un puré, y si además éste lleva cebollines, tocino, y crema acidificada mucho menos, este puré tiene todo para ser delicioso. 1 kg de papas peladas y cortadas en 4. 15 cditas de sal, tal vez un poco más. 1/2 taza de leche (yo uso crema espesa para batir "heavy cream"). 1/2 taza de crema acidificada.
