  • Boss Sauce

    Posted in: Madeline's Menu March 2010 3/21/10 5:37 PM
    Have you ever gotten such a craving for something that you just can't get enough of it? That's how I am with breakfast foods, and thankfully the possibilities are endless when it comes to eggs and bacon. But what I can't seem to get enough of lately is French toast. Maybe it's...
  • Holy Fiesta Dip

    I was at Devon Market last week for some eatin's, and I noticed they had avocadoes for really cheap. Some were a bit hard, but most of them felt fine, so I picked up three small ones for a buck. That's weird, isn't it? Usually avocadoes are insanely expensive during the summer,...
  • The Crepe Paper

    My mom came into town today to visit, and she took me out to eat at the Ethiopian Diamond. I first ate there the day before Valentine's, and I became obsessed. You know when you crave something so intensely everything pales in comparison? I couldn't get that sourdough-ish bread out of mind, but...
  • The Musical Fruit

    Is there anything more versatile and exciting than the bean? Answer: No. They can be baked, refried, shaped like kidneys, and incorporated into soups, burritoes, and salads; Weezer sang about them (sort of); and we even know their dietary and intestinal benefits through a children's chant...
  • The Roast of Martha Stewart

    Good news, guys: We've gotten through the first two weeks of a new semester. It's nice to be back, especially after getting so restless at home. There's only so much TLC I can take before I go crazy, having my laundry done and a full fridge every time I open its doors. How much...
  • More Gnocchi, Less Problems

    Posted in: Madeline's Menu December 2009 12/12/09 7:16 PM
    I don't often make overgeneralizations that would turn Nonni, my fake Italian grandmother, over in her grave, but here we go: Making gnocchi isn't too difficult. I'm sure there's a pasta purist out the somewhere with an intense fever right now, but it's true. I actually have a...
  • You Say Potato, I Say It's Finals Week

    Posted in: Madeline's Menu December 2009 12/5/09 9:56 PM
    It's finals week, which either means one of two things for you: You're breaking out over the stress just the thought those exams bring, or you're studying. I myself prefer whining about how hectic my last week as a first semester senior is (how did that happen?!) and then StumblingUpon new recipes...
  • Dressing Up

    Posted in: Madeline's Menu November 2009 11/29/09 1:35 AM
    My family takes tradition very seriously in a very unserious way: Each holiday we gather around the television and watch a movie that is wildly inappropriate for that date. Last Christmas it was Ken Burns' documentaries on the civil war; two Decembers ago it was The Godfather. This...
