		<title>One Meatball (and No Spaghetti)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Yes, it&#8217;s cold and snowy out there and I already only want to eat meat until spring, but I also work in New York, where it&#8217;s impossible to spend any time at all without having meatballs thrust upon you. (Er, &#8220;without encountering meatballs&#8221;? &#8220;Without reading about them&#8221; or &#8220;passing a restaurant that has them on [...]]]></description>

		<title>Chocolate Cake!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I saw this chocolate-sour cream cake on Apartment Therapy&#8217;s The Kitchn last week and simply could not get it out of my mind. A two-layer chocolate-sour cream cake! I had to make it. HAD TO. Because Gil&#8217;s birthday was just a few days ago, it gave me the great excuse I didn&#8217;t really need (because I have [...]]]></description>

		<title>Happy New Year!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I think most of us could say we&#8217;d like to believe we&#8217;ve changed for the better in some essential way over the years, whether in quality of character or by simply by growing into our selves. My husband is vexed whenever he&#8217;s immediately recognized by someone who hasn&#8217;t seen him in 20 years, but with [...]]]></description>

		<title>Another Hanukkah, Another Macaroon</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I&#8217;m heading to Louisiana tomorrow for an extra-long (and warm-weathered) Christmas visit with my family! (Cue happy dance.) Gil has to work this week, so he&#8217;ll join us after spending a few days alone with the dogfaces. Since I won&#8217;t be around for the start of Hanukkah, I thought I&#8217;d make Gil a batch of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cajeta</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I&#8217;ll let you in on a little secret that maybe isn&#8217;t so secret: Cajeta is the food of angels. It&#8217;s essentially a milk caramel sauce, but what sets it apart from dulce de leche or confiture de lait is that it&#8217;s usually made from goat&#8217;s milk, which makes it more delicious by half, IMHO; it [...]]]></description>

		<title>Holiday Baking: Gluten-Free Gingerbread</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
December&#8217;s nearly half gone, so I guess that means no Advent Calendar this year! Instead, I&#8217;ll be posting some gluten-free goodness that&#8217;ll get you in the holiday spirit. First up, gluten-free gingerbread — soft, spicy and completely addictive, especially with a dollop of sweetened creme fraiche.

The instructions called for baking this in one pan, but [...]]]></description>

		<title>I Have Two Words For You</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
That&#8217;s right: Nutella pudding.

I was perusing Food52 a few days ago and noticed a little &#8220;We Think You&#8217;ll Like&#8221; section in the corner with this recipe leaping from the screen. Oh, Food52, you know me so well.

Strictly speaking, it&#8217;s a gianduja pudding because there&#8217;s no Nutella product in there, but that doesn&#8217;t matter &#8212; if [...]]]></description>

		<title>That&#8217;s a Wrap</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Summer&#8217;s over and so is the photography portion of the cookbook project I spent my weekends on. I couldn&#8217;t think of a better way to celebrate 1) completing the work, 2) the unofficial start of fall and 3) football season than with a big pot of beef &#38; lamb chili and an over-the-top dessert. It&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<title>Steak &amp; vegetables. And more vegetables.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Grass-fed &#38; -finished beef with red chimichurri over a raw kale salad. My Primal lunch did not suck in any way. At all. Big thanks to the folks at Walnut Grove Farm who made this gorgeous bit of sirloin possible. (They&#8217;re only at the market once a month, so I&#8217;ll be stocking up next time I [...]]]></description>

		<title>From the Market — Week 7</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Well, things certainly have been buzzing around here. Even though I&#8217;ve neglected this blog for a while, I want to take a moment to pat myself on the back (gingerly, so I don&#8217;t dislocate a shoulder) for getting anything done at all. You see, I&#8217;ve been shooting another cookbook! (Not my own!) In my spare [...]]]></description>
