I have nothing to say abt the food, but that was a well written post. I have few recipes that I have drafted when I started my blog, but havent seen the day’s light 😀 How did you make Garlic truffle fries? By using truffle oil over potato fries?
Beautiful stuff, lady! 🙂 I’m going to have to make those fries. Let’s see … a mandolin … “Honey, it’s for the blog!”
Ok, it looks as though I get to harrass you here. You’re going to have to make that 43 drafts. Why? Because at the beginning of the recipe for “Szechuan Peppercorn Roasted Chicken”, you wrote, “The recipe below is for a convection setting on your oven. I’ll be posting recipe for standard oven tomorrow…too tired to type anymore!” I know, I know … “Hey … LPC … shaaaadupppp! 😀
Man that looks like a good steak… beautifully marbled! And I so know what you mean about drafts… I’ve got dozens of them in my computer too. And dozens more in my head.
That steak looks absolutely beautiful! I’m off to the grocery and the farmers’ market this morning. If I find some ribeye, I’ve got the rosemary in my garden all ready to go. Yum.
Speaking of wanting a bite…yummy looking meaty goodness there!!
I did rib eyes on the grill the other day for mom…what a great piece of meat. fatty, beefy deliciousness. But $5.99 a pound?? Would you call my butcher and fill him in on the going price? for our local organic meat it’s like $12.00/#…ouch!
And when i read about your pocket rocket maybe being mixed with your kitchen gadgets…there should be a warning label: “This is not a hand blender..And vice versa!”
I can’t wait to see all the other stuff hidden in your draft file!
That steak looks fab! No sales here in UK going on…guess the Brits aren’t too keen to remember Independence Day. Funny that, huh?
The carrots cooked in orange juice/stock and dusted with your citrus salt is pure inspiration. Now why didn’t I think of that…it sounds delicious together. You are one crafty cook!
MrsHBT- good thing I wasn’t hungry when I named my children!
Suganya- recipe for the fries finished! see next post
Wok & Spoon- I have at least 10 knitting projects to finish too… I haven’t even touched my knitting needles in the past 6 months.
LPC- crap!!!! see – I totally forgot about that one already
Stephanie- fortunately I have none in my head – like the memory card in my digital camera, its full already.
Lydia- can’t wait to see what you get at the farmers market
Bruce- I dont’ know where you live, but if you have a Sweetbay Supermarket near you, thats where I found them on sale. I had to warn my kids that Pocket-Rocket in Mommy’s drawer is not a space ship toy.
Steeped – thats why you have FFB (friends with food benefits – like chefs, people with nice kitchens, and people with GRILLS!)
MW- tell husband to get grilling!
Amy- I think ribeye is the best cut – nice and fatty
Melinda- I have a great recipe for Asian burgers just dying to be published…just need to test it one more time…
Ah, thank goodness I recently had the most wonderful tasting wagyu beef cheeks the other day….Though wonderful the photo and the steak may be, I’m “strong” today. LOL! For a peek at the dish I had….
Jaden, it must be a man thing. Here at ours, it’s the same scenario. I marinate and direct, but not allowed to go near the bbq grill! As soon as i hand him the plate of meat, he would ask me ‘how long?’ and that’s it.
That photo looks stunning. I bet it tasted so delicious too! 🙂

Dear Jaden,
“Honey Glazed Carrots with Citrus Salt”
“Garlic Truffle Fries”
You have named your food with beautiful names, just like the Chinese Restaurants, except I can figure out the ingredients used.
Thanks for the tips that Ribeye Steak is on sale on July 4th weekend.
p/s After I discovered your blog, I have kept my drafts as drafts.

I do that as well – start a whole lot of things that I don’t finish. I have about 4 scarves that I started knitting but never finished!
I’m also a bad steak griller – I tend to overcook. That steak looks just right!

That is a GORGEOUS steak. Man oh man, I wish I had the means to grill.
Okay, I’m firing up the grill for some rib-eyes-on-sale, going now..:)
My bf loves ribeye and so I’ll be making some for his bday soon. Thanks!

I am in the process of trying this right now, my mouth has been getting ready for this all day!
You said, “good thing I wasn’t hungry when I named my children”.
Jaden, you have countless talents, I have discovered that you have a good sense of humor.
I named my baby Little Chicken because she was born in the year of Chicken, not because I was hungry. 🙂
Well, there goes my diet.
Oh, wait…I don’t have one. Whew!
42 drafts?!
this makes me so hungry! Deliciousness in great light photos!
Jaden, it must be a man thing. Here at ours, it’s the same scenario. I marinate and direct, but not allowed to go near the bbq grill! As soon as i hand him the plate of meat, he would ask me ‘how long?’ and that’s it.

Mae- We will stage a revolt soon…..GIRL GRILL POWER UNITE!!!
