Love fresh salads the most, but really love salads that include a bit of fresh fruit! From strawberries and raspberries to blueberries and apples. Yum!

I'm feeling out of sorts... What exactly is tapas?

Cook the Book: 'Modern Spice'

It's a tie: Thai or Japanese sushi. Both rate high around here!

Anything having to do with cherries is good. Let's go with Black Forest Cake! Chocolate and cherries. Oh, yeah!

Cook the Book: 'Serious Barbecue' by Adam Perry Lang

Lighting it without having my eyebrows singed off? Another success is the foil pockets I make with salmon and veggies. Yum!

Cook the Book: 'Real Cajun'

I don't know if one would consider this food, but I remember having snow blocks drizzled with warm maple syrup. Yum!

Cook the Book: 'The Asian Grill'

Ugh. I was trying to grill salmon. Well, I didn't know that everything basically falls apart near the end...so let's just say the humans didn't have salmon that night, and the briquettes did.

When I was pregnant, I couldn't get enough salted lemons. I had at least one lemon a day, and I salted the heck out of it. When I started the less fun phase of pregnancy...ahem...I still ate them, but had to deal with them more than once. I know...

Had an amazing goat cheese and tomato tart in Paris. Also tried escargot for the first time. Quite good.

Cook the Book: 'Food Matters: A Guide to Conscious Eating'

He's taught me that you don't have to go without the things you love...and since I love bacon, that's precious to me.

Cook the Book: 'On the Line'

Broiled with olive oil, lemon juice and garlic. If I'm feeling like a little spice, I go for the blackened seasoning as well.

Cook the Book: 'Almost Meatless'

I started a diet at the beginning of the year, and in the recipe book, there was a fabulous veggie chili. I make that every week and, seriously, I eat it at least three times for lunch in a week. So good!

Cook the Book: The Essence of Chocolate

It was a wonderful chocolate fondue - - I got to dip all kinds of goodness in that gooey mess, and loved every bite.

Cook the Book: 'Baking Unplugged'

I was making a sugar cookie pizza base late one night (basically, sugar cookie dough on a pizza stone). I put it in the oven and then began cutting up fruit and other things. I soon forgot about the cookie dough because I was sooooo tired. I went to bed, but awoke when, in my dream, something sure did smell good! Needless to say, the cookie was ruined and I had to start over.
