		<description><![CDATA[What to do with two smallish lamb shanks and two slightly-aged carrots?  Why, make the smallest stew ever &#8212; just two servings.


2 small lamb shanks, meat cut from the bone &#038; cubed (about 2 handfuls meat)
2 carrots, chopped
3 shallots, chopped
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 cup red wine
1 cup water
extra-virgin olive oil
2 bay leaves
salt, black pepper, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My fascination with fried eggs should come as no surprise.  While looking for something entirely different in my copy of Cradle of Flavor, I found a recipe for Telur Mata Sapi Bumbu &#8212; Indonesian Fried Eggs.  These eggs are fried in hot oil, then topped with potent aromatics: garlic, shallots, chiles, and ginger. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last night, I made broiled head-on chili shrimp, Chinese noodles, and vegetable stir-fry for dinner.  The stir-fry was simple &#8212; just onions, bok choy, oyster mushrooms, and some seasonings &#8212; but delicious.  We had noodles and some stir-fry left over, and it occurred to me that it might make a good breakfast, paired [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of my pets has been ill, and had to be hospitalized somewhere quite a ways from my home.  On the upside, I got to see what it would be like to commute from a suburb every day.  On the downside, we ate out a lot.
Which meant that we both ended up craving [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are a million variants of warm spinach dip floating around, but when I was looking for one earlier today, none of them suited what I had in the house.  So I made one up.

about 1/2 cup of grated parmesan cheese
a big spoonful of sour cream, maybe 1/4 - 1/3 cup or so

		<description><![CDATA[Nat and I decided, rather spur-of-the-moment, to throw a Halloween Feast.  Since we had this idea on October 31st, we actually scheduled it for November 4th, to give us time to execute our cunning plan.
What we ended up serving:

hummus, baba ganouj, eggplant dip, &#038; pita
olives, marinated mushrooms, and artichokes
cookies
leftover Halloween candy
sweet potato pie
cheese board [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have a bad habit of making up a dish as I go along, and then forgetting what I did before I write things down.  I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;d have more luck remembering what I did if I got around to the writing before a week or so has elasped.
Tonight, I am eating a soup [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have long had a fondness for the small dishes of many cuisines.  I cut my teeth &#8212; almost literally &#8211;on the American bar &#038; grill appetizers, which to this day I enjoy as meals on their own.  Show me a tapas restaurant and I&#8217;m there, with bells on.  And then there [...]]]></description>

Recently, I made a delicious dinner: bay scallops in red pepper butter, cooked in ramekins and served up with dry-seared asparagus.  I had half of the recipe left over: 4 ramekins full of scallops and shallots, butter [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve got fresh sweet corn, beets, a melon, the first of the winter squashes, a lot [...]]]></description>
