cucumber soup

I've come late to this cucumber party.I don't just mean that I'm finishing up this post at nearly midnight. I mean that, for decades, I steadfastly refused to eat cucumbers. Their slippery innards kind of grossed me out. The seeds slid around my tongue when I took a bite — ugh. The outside is crisp, the inside is mush. I wanted nothing to do with them. Read more...

Gluten-Free Allergen-Free Vacation Tips

I just got back from a family vacation and though the summer is already half over, I thought someone out there may still benefit from some travel tips for traveling with gluten intolerance or with food allergies… When planning a vacation, rather than start with what to pack?, start with what’s my destination? Where you are [... Read more...

Vegan "Tuna" Salad Recipe

Not Starkist Salad. Eat groovy. Save a tuna. The older I get the more I crave simple. You know what I'm talking about. Home cooking. Childhood classics- like tuna salad. Instead of getting all worldly and sophisticated and dabbling with truffle oil, with each new gray hair my taste is hula hooping into kid-friendly food faster than Marisa Tomei can waggle. Well, maybe not that fast. She is pretty nimble. But you get my drift. Read more...

gluten-free crabcakes for my love

This morning, I watched this man bend down to grab the hands of our daughter and slowly go around in a circle with her while they sang Ring Around the Rosie together.(There's no need to tell her yet how creepy that song really is. Read more...

Gluten-free Soy-free Vegan Japanese Quinoa Salad Recipe

The other day I was thumbing through one of my favorite cooking magazines and came across a recipe for a cold quinoa summer salad, with tomatoes and italian herbs. It sounded lovely, but somehow I just wasn’t in the mood for an Italian quinoa salad. Instead, I was in the mood for something distinctly more… Japanese. Read more...

Welcome to the world, Baby Rory!

Rory!, originally uploaded by Kate Chan. This is probably the second most difficult post I have ever written. The first announced the arrival of the Chicklet via an open letter to her from her Baba and I. This is difficult only because the wait was hard, the work to bring little Rory forth into life was one that demanded enduring patience, faith and strength. And she is finally here for us to love, hold, and get to know. . Oh! My eyes fill with tears of joy when I think of both of my girls. Read more...

Triple Berrry Smoothie

Post gym workout, give me a cold smoothie and I'm a happy camper. Add lots of good stuff to it, all the stuff we know we're supposed to eat but somehow don't always get around to. Then kick back and sip on your smoothie and enjoy the beautiful day! I've been enjoying morning smoothies for a few years now. Read more...

two

She has started to jump, after weeks of frustration of her feet not leaving the floor. She holds onto my hands after I lift her onto the bed and she bounces, giggling, head thrown back, alive.She never stops moving, this one. After a couple of toddling months of walking, she began running, at full tilt. Read more...

Gluten-free Birthday Party Menu: Vegan Meyer Lemon Cupcake Recipe

Last weekend on the 17th of July, Baby Yum and I celebrated our respective birthdays with a lovely birthday party full of friends, food, and celebration. It was her first birthday, and it was my… well, let’s just say it was NOT my first birthday. However, it was my first birthday with a darling baby daughter by my side. As usual, I cooked way too much, but since leftovers are lovely things, I didn’t worry too much about it. Read more...

The Scone Shoppe 2401 Bridge Avenue Pt. Pleasant, NJ 732.899.4070 I've never actually watched an episode of Jersey Shore, but I've seen promos for it and I've heard plenty of water cooler talk about it. I wonder if tourism has... Read more...

Five Ways To Chill

1. Creamy dark chocolate sorbet. It's dairy-free and vegan. Rich but not filling. Cool and dark as midnight jazz. A respite from the shimmer of summer heat. Spoon it into chilled glasses. Turn off the lights. Light a candle. Music: Melody Gardot 2. Quinoa salad with lime and fresh mint. Cook quinoa in a rice cooker and keep the kitchen cool. Toss with just squeezed lime juice, good olive oil and garden ripe tomatoes. Spike it with whatever your heart desires- scallions, red onion. Read more...

three years

Three years ago this morning, I was wide awake and nervous, giggling with anticipation at marrying Danny that afternoon.What a three years this has been.Four years ago, when I was in the first throes of love and admiration for the man who has become my best friend and constant companion, I wrote about him all the time on this site. Some of you complained that it was a little much. Read more...

How to Make Cashew Cream and a Curry Ranch Dressing Recipe

Cashew cream makes a divine dairy-free ranch dressing. I've been reading on Twitter it's too hot to cook. So why not go raw? Numero uno, it's easy. Numero dos, it's tasty. And as an added bonus (if you need another nudge) cooking raw keeps the kitchen cool as a cucumber- which, by all accounts, is chilly by default and well. Raw. I've been flirting with raw cuisine lately to heal inflammation and tame my monkey gut. And wouldn't you know it. It's working. Read more...
