I’m about to tell you something that you probably don’t want to hear. Cover your ears eyes if you can’t handle disappointment.
Ready?
I don’t like pumpkin pie!

Given the choice of pumpkin pie or apple pie, I always choose apple. Always. It’s almost as if there is no need to make a choice. Pumpkin pie to me is just meh. But apple pie…how could you not love it?

Still undecided on what pies to serve for Thanksgiving? Or maybe you are looking for something slightly different that the traditional choices. Look no further, this pie has got you covered. The moment I saw this in November’s Bon Appétit, I began searching for an opportunity to make it.

The other day I did something I have come to love: I plopped a big ol’ hunk of meat in my slow cooker and walked away. I so love my Crock Pot. I had picked up a gigantic piece of boneless pork shoulder from Costco, and divided it it up.

I love Mexican food, but Australia is notoriously bad to try and find the good stuff. Most places serve Tex Mex or Baja style, and while I do like this when it’s done well, it’s a world away from the fresh, bright flavours of real Mexican food.

Tripe, trippa in Italian, is the stomach of an animal, in this case beef. It’s texture is unique and very different from other offals or meat cuts. Very rubbery and tough when raw, becomes gentle and gelatinous when cooked slowly with a liquid.

I decided to make some delicious fresh pasta with béchamel Sauce and some artisan bread-sticks.I know for sure it will fulfill their appetite! Homemade pasta is very simple--may be a little time consuming but well worth it!

The great thing about gnocchi is that they’re made with few ingredients: potatoes, flour, eggs, olive oil, salt. They also require no special equipment. You can make a large quantity of gnocchi for a few dollars and roll them pretty much anywhere, as I found out when I made a batch on my apartment’s wooden bedside table.

I have always loved Ginger Molasses cookies. Really, who doesn’t? They’re always worth the drive (for me, it’s a drive) to Starbucks. I suppose it’s a result of loving autumn and everything it represents: Pumpkin Spice lattes, pumpkin desserts, warm apple cider, spiced cake, and the like.

I came back to Kuwait missing my kitchen and it’s equipments .. the non-stick skillet .. the small oven .. the sharp knife I’ve bought before my departure to the US. And I came back waiting to use the new measuring spoons and cups I’ve bought from Macy’s department store.

A popular Milanese recipe was the inspiration for this dish. And what a great way to use blueberries when they are at the peak of their season. The sweetness of the berries blends beautifully with thyme in this super simple preparation that celebrates the last days of summer. I've included a link to a good recipe for blueberry jelly in case you'd like to prepare that, too.

I have actually never made Green Goddess dressing. I mean, ever. So this was sort of a duh moment for me, as I realized that I had fresh herbs all over the place, garlic and anchovies ready to hand, and a tub of sour cream in the fridge left over from our Monday night enchiladas.
