A quick post for a quick weeknight meal. #46, Baked Fish Fillets in White Wine, includes a lot of things that I like: artichokes, asparagus, lemon, rice pudding, butter and white wine. Lots of white wine. But the main ingredient is something that I don’t like at all: fish. I don’t cook fish. As I’ve stated inContinue reading 46. Baked Fish Fillets in White Wine

44. Chicken Cacciatore (Hunter's Style)
I think it’s time that I come forward and confess my dirty little secret. My name is Emily and I’m an addict. I hoard frozen chicken. On Saturday, when I went to the Safeway, I had a vague idea of the amount of chicken already in my freezer, but it was not until after IContinue reading 44. Chicken Cacciatore (Hunter's Style)
26. Cioppino (Fish Stew)
This was my first try at cooking for others besides myself and Cleve. If it’s just us, who cares if Dinner is Served is late or ugly or burned. Or is a complete abomination, as was Tuna-Cheese-Macaroni Loaf. But it’s different when you’re cooking for guests, especially when your guests have self-inflicted dietary restrictions because they gaveContinue reading 26. Cioppino (Fish Stew)
103. Mandarin Chicken Salad
This is a very special meal. No, not because it was fancy, involved weird ingredients or included a Jell-O mold. This is special because it is my 10th completed Dinner is Served! Which means that I only have 108 cards left. Sweet Christ on a cracker. What the hell have I gotten myself into? ThisContinue reading 103. Mandarin Chicken Salad
10. Roast Chicken
I love roast chicken. I think that it might be my favorite dinner: stuffing and corn and mashies and gravy. It’s basically a small-scale version of Thanksgiving–which is my favorite holiday meal. Anyway, when I think of roast chicken I think of the delectable sides. YUM. I was ready to prepare all those wonderful carbohydrate-ladenContinue reading 10. Roast Chicken
50. Lamb Curry
Let me tell you a little story about me and curry. Imagine it–Pittsburgh, 1999. I had never eaten Indian food (my parents, at this time not being the most adventurous eaters, never ate Indian, so in turn I had never tried it. In fact, I was the one who introduced my father to the wonders ofContinue reading 50. Lamb Curry
54. Shrimp Creole
Now, I didn’t plan to prepare a Creole dish for Mardi Gras, because I really don’t keep track of such drinking holidays. I don’t need a reason to drink–your Cinco de Mayo is one of my any given Thursdays. Now on to Creole Shrimp! Now, with this recipe I followed it to the letter. TheContinue reading 54. Shrimp Creole
41. Fruit Stuffed Pork Loin (the results)
Ah, card #41. You took almost an entire day to make.
