Give Brussels sprouts a chance
On a recent dinner outing with friends, I was pleasantly surprised to see Brussels sprouts on the restaurant menu. I gave the chef points for offering a vegetable that, for the last several years, has been No. 1 on the list of vegetables consumers all over the world dislike the most.

These date bars aren't dated
Not long ago, I received an email from a reader asking me if I had an excellent recipe for date bars. It had been ages since I’d thought of those classic sweet treats with a cookie-like mixture sandwiching soft, creamy date filling. I hadn’t even noticed that date bars seem to have gone out of fashion.

Bring on the beans: Spicy Peppers with Beans (Chili)
I was using a soup spoon to scrape the shallow puddle of spicy, rich, dark red gravy from the bottom of a deep bowl. “How could anyone even miss meat in this chili?” I posed the question to my husband as we sat at the table finishing our meal of a bean-dominated piquant chili.

Darling clementines make flavor-bursting scones
For days, I’ve been making trips into the chilly garage to replenish the bowl of clementines that has been decorating my dining table. Before Christmas, I decided a small mesh-covered crate of the juicy fruit just wouldn’t be enough for my clementine-loving family. I bought a case. It must have been 25 pounds. In just two weeks, I can see the bottom of the cardboard box.

Resolving to eat some Yellow Pea Soup
It’s clear the time for resolutions is here. As I lay on the couch recovering from the stomach flu just a couple of days after Christmas, I saw advertising for Jenny Craig, the South Beach diet and Weight Watchers within minutes of turning on the television. Puffy people carrying extra pounds from holiday indulgences are just the audience they target. For many, new year’s resolutions involve health and fitness.

Glorious, decadent ricotta made in your own kitchen
I found myself giggling as I stood at my stove. I was using the end of my candy thermometer to stir a mixture of milk and cream in my heavy, turquoise-colored saucepan. Its enamel-coated interior is stained with years of use. I was having flashbacks of my homemade yogurt-making days 35 years ago.

Freezer Eggnog French Toast is a no-mess, no-stress dish
Years ago, at a holiday gathering I attended, I overheard the hostess in conversation with one of her guests. As the Christmas-sweater-clad woman ladled thick, frothy homemade eggnog from a large punch bowl into a clear glass cup, I heard her say in a half-whisper that she always made plenty of the creamy beverage “spiked” with bourbon so she would have enough to use for French toast the next morning.

My favorite food of 2011? Cioccolatissimo, hands down
What was the absolute favorite thing you ate in 2011? When Amy Ephron, publisher of an online food magazine called “One for the Table,” asked me that questioan, I didn’t hesitate before answering. I have no trouble recalling the favorite food I ate in 2011.

Let the holiday baking begin
The day after Thanksgiving, when many people have shopping in mind, I enjoy a relaxing day of holiday baking. I sleep in that morning. As I sip my first mug of hot, dark coffee, I chuckle about the silly people who wake up before the crack of dawn to be sure to get in on all the bargains of the day as they wait in long lines and fight their way through crowds.

Biscuits that everyone can enjoy
When I was growing up in a suburban neighborhood of St. Paul, Minn., we had neighbors who didn’t eat meat. The couple had a black-haired little girl with dark brown eyes and glowing pink cheeks. She didn’t eat meat, either. This stirred up much curiosity among the people who lived along our street. My parents just couldn’t understand it. What in the world did these people eat? How did they stay healthy?

Shoogie Dadders? From silly sayings to chewy cookies
One sunshiny day last summer during a car ride with a few of my grandchildren, we all got a little silly. We’d just made a stop at the local chocolate shop for some candy treats. Giggles escalated to hardy belly-laughs as we sang nursery rhymes opera-style with brief pauses for licks of Sugar Daddy caramel lollipops (the grandchildren) and bites of a thick dark chocolate-dipped apricot (me).

Caramel Apple Bundt Cake satisfies my apple fix
The sweet smells of fresh-pressed apple cider and warm cinnamon-spiced apple doughnuts are fall pleasures that I must experience every year. My favorite season of the year would not be complete without a traditional trip to an apple orchard.
