I don’t know what got me craving Pastitsio recently. I was wandering the supermarket sort of aimlessly and came across the ground lamb and, poof!, Pastitsio popped into my head. Had to have it and had to have it tonight. Unfortunately, it’s not super quick to make but I made a commitment to my belly… Read More Pastitsio
I know, I know, wrong flag for a Lowcountry website but there is a really good reason. I’ve mentioned before that Chef J and his family hail from Texas. This is something he is very proud of. Over the years, we’ve bought him countless Lone Star gifts (coffee mugs, cycling jerseys, t-shirts, etc.) all of… Read More A Culinary Legacy – Chicken Fried Steak

Last week, I decided to be a little fancier and go with a pot roast. But who has time… Read More Shabbat Shalom, Y’all! – Slow Cooker Pot Roast
Our Lowcountry family vacationed in the North Carolina mountains near Asheville last summer. Asheville is a funky and cool city with a kind of crunchy vibe. The Boy experienced his first drum circle (I may have done a little Dead Head spinning while walking up the sidewalk to Pritchard Park), we saw lots and lots of… Read More Heading On Down the Spice Road – Chole Palak
