#BrunchWeek 2014 Shout-Outs for Liz, Anita, & Lanie

By
A few more 2014 #BrunchWeek blogger intros for today...


Liz at That Skinny Chick Can Bake is not joking. She can bake. I can't wait to try her French Silk Pie with Frangelico. So many words in that title that make me happy! On the savory side of things her Gorgonzola Mushroom Stuffed Beef Tenderloin could easily become a tradition in my household, too.

Anita is the voice behind The Hungry Couple. She, and Brian, also run A Cocktail Life, a new-to-me blog where I spent an obscene amount of time browsing this afternoon. Over on her kitchen blog, I was enamored by her Grilled Cheese Croutons. I mean, really, why didn't I think of that?! She also has a recipe for which I have been looking - buckeyes. Only hers are boozy buckeyes. Yep, I'm a fan.

Lanie runs The Vintage Cook and has some truly delectable sounding recipes in her hopper for #BrunchWeek. I just adore the word 'Chantilly.' Not only does she have a ton of delicious recipes, I love that she has an etiquette section on her blog. Here's her take on 10 Table Manners that We Forgot. When I read that she writes from her 'humble abode in Oz', I immediately thought Australia. Nope. Lanie hails from Kansas. That Oz. One vintage recipe that jumped out at me - How to Make Homemade Caramel Apples.

I can't wait to see what these talented ladies bring to our virtual brunch table next week.

This month the French Winophiles group is looking at affordable wines from Burgundy.  Host Cindy of Grape Experiences wrote: "Burgundy, or Bourgogne, is known for its wines of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir... as well as Aligote, Gamay, Sauvignon, César, Pinot Beurot, Sacy, Melon in lesser quantities. Many of the well-known wines are quite expensive, but there are plenty of values to be found." Read her invitation here. And there won't be a Twitter chat for this event, so you will have to dive into the articles themselves to read about our pairings and findings. Here's the line-up...

Quick Pickled Red Onions and Radishes

By
If you've been reading my blog for even a short amount of time, you probably know how much I love to pickle things. I was just telling a friend you can pickle - with vinegar - or you can ferment - with salt - for similar delicious effect. The latter has digestive benefits and I love to do that, but when I need that pop of sour flavor quickly, I whip up quick pickles that are ready in as little as a day or two. I've Pickled Blueberries , Pickled Asparagus , Pickled Cranberries , Pickled Pumpkin , and even Pickled Chard Stems ! This I did last night for an upcoming recipe challenge that requires I include radishes. Ummmm...of course I'm pickling them! Ingredients  makes 1 quart jar radishes, trimmed and sliced organic red onions, peeled and thinly sliced (I used a mandolin slicer) 3/4 C vinegar (I used white distilled vinegar) 3/4 C water 3 T organic granulated sugar 1 T salt (I used some grey sea salt) 6 to 8 grinds of black pepper Proce
