Today I was doing my usual browsing through recipes for ideas and I came across one that caught François’ attention: spicy, Italian, and meaty. and then he announced: “I want to make that!” Really? So this was the day the Galley Kat stepped back and let ‘he who offered to cook’ take over. …(happily)… …he shopped… …and returned with all his treasures… …I offered help […]

We are big…huge…pizza lovers. It really is the perfect food. Versatile unlimited toppings, seasonings, oils veggies, meats and cheeses.

Now that we have ‘tested the waters’ so to speak on egg storage aboard our boat, I am ready to have a good supply for the days onboard when we need to be more autonomous (especially for our ‘Little Loop Adventure’ next summer). I know there is a controversy about the daily egg flip method: i.e. eggs should be farm fresh & not previously refrigerated, […]
With 10 freshly made stove top pitas on hand I feel compelled to create. (to be honest Francois is looking longlingly at them already envisioning his first trial as my official taste tester) One of my favourite pizzas is the Margherita very simple and fresh… minimal ingredients (as least the way I make it)… requires no special recipe… Pizza Margherita for Two Two Stove […]
Who would have thought that the one vegetable that so many people despise can be the one that can be added to such delicious meals. Brussels sprouts, like cabbage keeps much better than other greens.
