You’ve frequently heard me refer to “the Flamingo”, and I’ll bet you thought I was talking about myself, didn’t you? Well, today the truth comes out, and the Flamingo insisted on speaking for himself about one of our experiences at the Eat, Write, Retreat food bloggers conference in Washington, DC this weekend, and wrote a [...]
A couple of weeks ago, I was scouring the farmers market looking for inspiration. My spring canning class was coming up and I wanted to show the class something a little bit different in the pickle category – something that might inspire them to think of vegetable pickles “outside the jar”. Something that would lend [...]
Things have been a little crazed around the ol’ Flamingo Pond these days, and I apologize to everyone for not putting together a #GreatHallowTweet Halloween bloghop, this year. But that doesn’t mean that I’ve forgotten about our fave holiday of the year, around here, and I haven’t forgotten that you need to give those kids [...]
I’m starting to warm up to kale. It took awhile, and some peer pressure. And guilt. One of my favorite ways to disguise ->ahem!<- incorporate kale in meals, is to add it to pasta. We do love pasta around here, and I’ve got to admit that – aside from calling out for pizza – it’s [...]

It uses fresh vegetables and another fun pasta shape – orzo. Orzo is a small pasta, shaped rather like large rice grains, and particularly well-suited to my favorite one-pan [...]
I’ve got two – count ‘em – two treats for you today! Maybe even three! I was on the web recently, looking at platform beds for my new space-age foam mattress, when I was struck by an idea for another frozen and healthy concoction (it happens that way, sometimes), and inspired by the new Flickr [...]
It’s Monday once again. Back to school, back to work, and back to the eternal question: “What the heck am I going to make for supper that I can get on the table before someone gnaws a hole in the couch?” “Oh. And yeah. I’d like to get a vegetable in there, somewhere.” My answer? [...]
Project Vegan Yum Yum continues! This week’s recipe assigned to us by Elle from Lauren Ulm’s blog-turned-book of the same name, is “Aloo Matar” (Which I’m pretty sure means “dead potato”. Oh no, wait. That’s Spanish. Never mind.) Aloo means Potato and Matar means Peas. This is a vegan turn on an already vegetarian Indian [...]
