From John Steinbeck, East of Eden

A child may ask, "What is the world's story about?" And a grown man or woman may wonder, "What way will the world go? How does it end and, while we're at it, what's the story about?"

• The Count of Monte Cristo, Alexandre Dumas.  Because John Prine sings about it.
• Little Dorrit, Charles Dickens.  Because John Irving refers to her favorably and extensively in The Cider House Rules.  And because The Cider House Rules is great.  And because David Copperfield was good as well.
• Frankenstien.  Because it's cool.

Emily was born in Oct 2007.  Here she is on Jan 28, 2008.

Emily gets in a big yawn before going for a drink. As is true of this picture, she frequently stretches her chops after taking a meal.

I wish I could say this is an old family recipe, but the truth is that it came from the Creme de Colorado Cookbook, First Edition (The Junior League of Denver, Inc. [gaak]. C & C Publications: Denver, 1987. p 223). The cookbook was a gift from my mother-in-law, so maybe it qualifies as a family recipe all the same.

Boiled in the shell and really salty.  Best eaten outside, or inside with plenty of paper towels, on a warm day.  A pretty good companion for a little league game.

When I was a kid, there was a guy who came around city park during the little league games.  He'd yell out, "pochet or bawld."  (That translates to roasted (parched) or boiled for all my non-southern friends.)  We'd always beg Dad for a bag of boiled peanuts.

First time we tried this recipe was Thanksgiving 2009.  I gotta say, we'll never buy canned cranberries sauce again.  This is incredibly easy to make, and is oh-so-good.

Makes 2 1/4 cups.

This recipe came from Simply Recipes.

Vermont is an apple state.  Seems like every fall, we're practially burried under apples.  Since you can't eat them all, you find ways to put them up.  Apple sauce, apple pie filling, apple wine... and apple butter.  Here's the apple butter recipe I used this year.

From the Ball Blue Book (1999), p. 31.

This is my grandfather's WWII recipe book. From the inside cover, it appears that he got these recipes and created this book at the:

C. & B. School (Cooking an Baking?)
208 W. 13th St.
New York City

He never really talked about his time in the Merchant Marines, and I haven't been able to find any information on the C & B School. I do know that the address is now the home of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community Center.

When I was the youth director at First Presbyterian Church in beautiful Aiken, SC, one of the kids just started calling me that one day. I have no idea why. Since it was the first nickname I ever had that I would repeat in public, I kept it.
