The Best Intentions...

By

The best intentions...do not get your recipes written. SO sorry, all. We had R's 13th birthday party yesterday. Ten kids for seven and a half hours plus parents over for dinner after that. I didn't sit down for almost twelve hours. So, my post(s) didn't happen. I will be posting some late, some tomorrow, and more after the event. Happy Sunday. Please enjoy the other bloggers' posts.
And don't forget the giveaway...

    That birthday party and the memories made are worth a month's worth of recipe posts. Rule #1....Life before blogging. Enjoy your time with the family Cam and don't forget how much we all appreciate your hard work.

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.
