Pumpkin Pie Latte

December 30, 2013 by Dale 5 Comments

A few things about me…. I love my coffee and almost every day starts the same with a latte. I love all things pumpkin and as much as I generally dislike the coffee and commercialization that is all-things “Starbucks,” I do adore the emergence of their pumpkin spice latte every year. But, in some regards,…

So now for something completely different…. My last foray into American brews salvaged what was becoming a dubious relationship.

Roasted Rutabaga with Fall Herbs

October 16, 2013 by Dale 4 Comments

Roasted_Rutabaga

Ah, the dreaded rutabaga. I suspect it is one of the veggies that people fear — and avoid — if for no other reason than the name itself scares them off. But truly, with the exception of the overly ubiquitous carrot and potato, most other ground veggies, at least in this country, have fallen hugely…
