That’s a bouquet garni, because I’m all fancy. I guess channeling Julia Child brings out the fancy in me, huh? Actually, despite her French devotion, Julia’s recipe’s aren’t really all that fancy.

It’s a pretty little thing, and, nicely for me, and easy little thing to make on a weeknight: Slow-Roasted Salmon, a recipe torn from a long-forgotten Real Simple magazine.

Perhaps my plating skills need a little work so that his leg isn’t hanging off it. But isn’t he cute? Really, isn’t a Rock Cornish Game Hen just a small chicken? Let’s see what Wikipedia has to say about it: ”Despite the name, it is not a game bird, but actually a typical chicken that…
Inspirations from the strangest of sources…

Dinner the other night was one of necessity: the need to use things up, including two defrosted tilapia filets; several ripe homegrown tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers; three separate batches of CSA potatoes (in three colors too!) and a bag of carrots I discovered buried at the bottom of the fridge. I knew I wasn’t going…
