Thyme for Cooking Posted on August 20, 2010 by KatieNovember 16, 2018

How times flies when one is having fun!  One is having fun…. Right?  Right??? I had fun this week: reading new blogs, finding new pasta recipes, trying to get out of my cooking slump…. Nothing like traveling around the globe, reading how other people treat their pasta to get a little inspiration. Without further ado….. Presto Pasta Nights, Week 177: The Round-up!  (HeeHaw) First in this week was Ruth, herself, … Continue reading →

Pasta with Grilled Chicken and Tapenade; I lost the will to cook

Thyme for Cooking Posted on August 19, 2010 by KatieOctober 8, 2017

I'd lost the will to cook. Not to eat, mind you…. That never goes away. Nor to drink…. So much wine; so little time. I'd simply lost the will to cook. It would appear that I have gotten into a rut. I'm no longer content merely to put a decent meal on the table. It has to be creative.  Colorful.  A feast for the eyes as well as the palate…. … Continue reading →

Chicken, Green Bean and Tomato Pasta with Peanut Dressing; Retro McDo’s

Thyme for Cooking Posted on August 17, 2010 by KatieNovember 8, 2017

No work to report on this week…. What with mon mari lazing around the hospital and all. He’s not being completely idle – he cleaned off a lawn chair, parked himself under the apple tree by the front gate and painted said gate. Now he’s making noises about finishing my kitchen cabinets – you know, those last 5 cabinet doors that never seemed to get made….. To give you an … Continue reading →

Turkey and Green Bean Pasta Salad; An ‘interesting’ day

Thyme for Cooking Posted on August 5, 2010 by KatieOctober 13, 2017

‘Mama said there’d be days like this…’ There is a Chinese curse: ‘May you live in interesting times.’ Yesterday was an ‘interesting’ day. It all started about 6am…. Our phone seldom rings. Our phone never rings at 6 in the morning….. NEVER! Mon mari is in hospital.  He had surgery late in the afternoon on Tuesday. (more about that tomorrow) At 6am, Wednesday morning, I am awakened out of a … Continue reading →

Cobb Pasta Salad; Clandestine garden goings-on

Thyme for Cooking Posted on July 22, 2010 by KatieOctober 15, 2017

I’m not sure what’s going on in my garden at night. I have radishes turning into big, hulking bullies. That could be the result of lack of discipline on my part as chief (and only) gardener. I accept the blame. But…. What’s wrong with this picture? I planted 2 types of courgette: the green, striped, traditional one (known as zucchini across the pond) and the pretty yellow one (known as … Continue reading →

Pasta with Ham, Spinach and Mascarpone; Houdini Dog

Thyme for Cooking Posted on June 17, 2010 by KatieFebruary 21, 2018

I haven’t been making pasta lately No, I’m not on a low-carb, no-carb or any other sort of diet. I’m on a new potato eating frenzy. In case you’ve never read this blog before….. We eat with the seasons.  And right now it’s new potato season. I picked up a box of a new (to me) kind last week – A.O.C. Like wine, and so many other things in France, … Continue reading →

Howard’s Famous Pasta Puttanesca (sort-of)

Thyme for Cooking Posted on April 29, 2010 by KatieJune 9, 2013

I really don't know how famous it it….. But his kids love it, so that counts for a lot. It's not true Puttanesca with the sausages…. But that's what we cooks do – modify the recipe to suit our tastes and feed our families. This wonderful recipe was sent to me by one of my readers, Howard, from Chicago, Illinois. He doesn't write a blog but thought this would be … Continue reading →
