Asparagus is very good for you and delicious this time of year. We like to saute it with fresh ginger, garlic, butter, course salt and pepper and serve it as a side dish. We found this post from The Amateur Gourmet, who has some suggestions of their own...

I'm very proud of myself. I improvised not one but TWO recipes this week with asparagus. In both cases, I bought the asparagus at the...

This delicious recipe comes from The Amateur Gourmet. After reading this post, we took a moment to encourage the good A.G to recycle (you'll see why), but for now, we're off to cook some crepes!

We can just feel our hips expanding with this delicious post from The Amateur Gourmet.

This is the best batch of chocolate chip cookies I've ever made and I attribute its success to two things: an ice-cream scoop and Diana's cookie sheets. And maybe a 400 degree oven.
