There are some celebrity chefs, foodie personalities and bloggers that I love, and I rush to cook or bake whatever I see them make – people like The Barefoot Contessa, Claire Saffitz and of course Smitten Kitchen. But weirdly, there’s another subset of chefs that I love even though I NEVER make any of their……

As mentioned in my January recap, I have been cooking A LOT at home so far this year. I’m trying to remember to take pictures this month though so I can document my faves here. One of my co-workers recommended this recipe back in the times when we used to chat about such things over……

As stated multiple times on this blog, I am just not a soup person. Once in a while, I’ll take a chance on something that sounds like I might like it, and I did that last Winter with this soup from Pinch of Yum. I vaguely remembered that I liked it, but decided to give……

I’m a very suspicious person when it comes to soup. I think it’s a texture thing. If it’s too thick or too chunky or too runny, I’m out. I’m basically Goldilocks searching for something that’s just right. I also never eat soup unless I’ve made it myself, with two exceptions. First, the Creamy Tomato Soup……

As I’ve written many times before on Planet Byn, January is the saddest month for a baker. No one is interested in eating treats, and that’s proven true at my new job as well. The formerly well-stocked Snack Station (an empty desk in the middle of the area we work) is now a barren wasteland……

I’ve talked before about how I’m not really a soup person, so I won’t bother airing my grievances again here. Well, just this one thing*: I’m not one of these people who can eat a bowl of soup for lunch and be content for the afternoon. I’ll be hungry an hour later for sure. I……

I was planning on going all ‘Anna & Kristina’s Grocery Bag’ on Gwyneth Paltrow’s cookbook My Father’s Daughter, but it still hasn’t happened. If you’ve never seen it, or don’t regularly watch the W Network, on the A&K show they take a cookbook and make 6-8 recipes from it, and decide if they would recommend it to……

I feel like I spend just as much time talking about foods I don’t like on this blog, as I doabout what I love.  What can I say, I have issues with a bunch of things, and soup is one of them. About five years ago, I went through a prolonged soup bender. The problem……
