Cogito, ergo creo]. Tuesday, June 23, 2009. Vanilla "Cream" Pie for Father's Day. After a week of fun and relaxin' at Lake Powell, I return to the cadence of the everyday. O' that I were able to run away again! That doesn't sound like a bad idea, really.hm. And did some modification to use what I had on hand. (I was still recovering from the long drive and unpacking and cleaning that accompanies one's return from vacation.). I thus give you the Vanilla "Cream" Pie with a Gingersnap Crust! Pour filling in...

Cogito, ergo creo]. Sunday, January 18, 2009. The five minute artisan bread that took a week to make. It's been a couple of years since Mark Bittman and the New York Times published their first articles on various no-knead breads. Which have since popped up on sites like Tastespotting. And many a food blog. And now it's my turn! Hey, it had to happen at some. I listened intently as Lynne spoke with Zoe Francois and Jeff Hertzberg, authors of. To make an interesting loaf! Another point I like about this b...

Cogito, ergo creo]. Monday, March 16, 2009. Okay, things are coming along and I'm starting to find my way back to ol' Cogito (sounds like an artisan brand of apertif or whiskey.I call dibs on the trademark! I decided, yesterday, to get off my keester and actually do some cooking. I grabbed a bag of oranges and went home and looked for recipes. I recalled having seen a recent episode of Good Eats where Alton Brown focused on the orange and even made marmalade. Via Alton Brown's Good Eats. I also want to n...

Cogito, ergo creo]. Wednesday, June 3, 2009. Strawberry Kiwi Oatmeal: Simple, Seasonal, and Slow. Whew, it's been a while, hasn't it? Why have I not posted any new entries? What have I been doing? Well, nowhere and not much; I just haven't been super inspired lately, nor have I really cooked anything of much interest (I'm not one to blog about every darn thing I eat, y'know). Excuses aside, I come to you this morning to break my blog fasting and to present you with a bowl of strawberry kiwi oatmeal.

Cogito, ergo creo]. Monday, December 29, 2008. What a busy month.not so much with the baking, but with work. The problem about working the retail shtick (even specialty retail) is the non-stop work work work nature of the Christmas season. It's been so hectic and exhausting that I had few chances to do much baking this year. Bummer, and now Christmas is come and gone.but that doesn't mean I can't get caught up, not does it? Therefor may I present to you, Mrs. Santa's Magical Cookies. Everyone rushed outs...

Cogito, ergo creo]. Monday, July 28, 2008. Homemade Marshmallows.now where's my 85% cacao Lindt chocolate bar? Throughout all of my time exploring the endless facets of all things food and cooking, one thing has always managed to foil me at every attempt.sugar. More specifically, making candy requiring the boiling. Of sugar. Time and again, I have failed in my attempts to craft candy and confections alike; but not so on this. They taste just like marshmallows, so I think I can call them a success. Line 1...

http://tomhamilton.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Cogito, ergo creo]. Wednesday, April 8, 2009. I've been toying with the idea of making my own liqueurs again. I had some good success with steeping a bag of Good Earth's Tropical Peach Black Tea. In a cup vodka for a about three hours and sweetening to taste with some stevia extract. It's just sweet enough, and nice enjoyed straight or as a part of a tea martini I have yet to attempt (I refuse. To call it a "tea-tini." Have some dignity, people!
