I have to say that I can't taste the difference. I made a strawberry-rhubarb crisp and was quite disturbed, when there wasn't any left, when I went for seconds.<BR/><BR/>Have you also tried http://www.epicurious.com? I feel like I don't need to buy another cookbook again.

I think ...I rather enjoyed sauteed kale with miso. I think Eileen serves hers with dried cherries. <BR/>Meanwhile, although I only tolerate butternut, I do rather enjoy acorn squash. Lately, I'm all about soup:<BR/>Hack a squash into chunks and scrape out seeds. Put in a roasting pan, drizzle with olive oil, throw in some whole unpeeled garlic cloves and thyme branches, add salt and pepper (if you're lucky, you have the hook up to get kick ass salt from France). Cover with foil and bake at 375 for about an hour. Meanwhile, core & chop 2 small apples, 1 carrot, and some onion. Saute in a sauce pan. Once squash is baked and cooled, peel it, chop it and add to saucepan, along with the peeled roasted garlic. Add about 3 cups broth. Simmer about 15 minutes and process with immersion blender. Add some 1/2 & 1/2. Let me know if you need me to come out and make it for you.....Julie McCoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13636419371986709887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31542820.post-17243125122458031062007-11-04T14:38:00.000-05:002007-11-04T14:38:00.000-05:00Strawberries?

Every time we go outside the toddler says, "bappies" and heads back to where the bushes are because she loves eating them right off the canes. I follow pessimistically stating that they are probably all gone. So far I'm always wrong.<BR/><BR/>It's weirding me out.Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00567374243896229606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31542820.post-74012330278955309392007-11-04T11:27:00.000-05:002007-11-04T11:27:00.000-05:00I love tuscan kale, and that salad is good.

But it's wonderful stewed with onions in olive oil, and sundried tomatoes or black olives stew along nicely, too. Great with fresh parmesan on fresh lemon juice and red pepper flakes too. Mmm.
