Mom’s "Tupp" Apple Cardamom Cake
Let’s talk winning tickets, shall we? First, my dear human random number generator, B., picked Brandy from Nutmeg Nanny to receive Nicole’s The Baking Bites Cookbook . Congrats! Send me a quick email and I’ll pass the info along. Now on to this cake… I know I am going to jinx it. I just know it. Maybe if I whisper it very... 
New Zealand, day 3 – Central Otago
Another really good day today. Began with a helicopter flight over the region to get a good sense of where everything is, together with some other journalists. We landed at Carrick for a masterclass on the various varieties and subregions, as well as a vertical tasting led by Rudi Bauer. This was followed by lunch. It was a brilliantly informative... 
Striking Provencal red: Domaine Hauvette
This is an interesting wine. It’s one that will divide people, depending on their tolerance for and acceptance of Brettanomyces (the ’spoilage’ yeast that’s relatively common in red wines, and which contibutes an earthy, spicy, medicinal, animally quality). Now I’m not a Brett policeman. If I was a winemaker, I’d... 
When the drugs don’t work
I’ve just taken my medication, with a glass of wine. I’m reminded of a comment I heard by a very senior pharmaceutical chief at a small meeting I was involved with in my previous life – held in Basle, Switzerland, with luminaries such as Peter Goodfellow and Craig Venter in attendance. It was looking at genomics. Allen Roses from... 
Dark Chocolate Brownies- The Best Gluten-Free Recipe
A tender melt-in-your-mouth gluten-free chocolate brownie I have a confession to make (although those of you following me on Twitter might not be surprised). My confession? I baked a batch of mint chocolate brownies today. And they flopped. Totally. Why? Because I made them without eggs and the egg replacer didn’t work. Who knew the dense and... 
Our Favorite Gluten-Free Chili
Our favorite gluten-free chili- hearty winter comfort. FADE IN: INT. 5TH FLOOR APARTMENT – DAY A chilly winter light slices into a SANTA MONICA apartment and illuminates every cobweb. (Obviously, a certain individual has been neglecting house work again). Said individual sighs audibly. Glances sideways into the mirror hanging above the kitchen... 
Wegman’s a Great Place To Work, Says Fortune
Wegman’s a Great Place To Work, Says Fortune
The No. 3 company to work for is Wegmans Food Markets , according to Fortune magazine’s list of the best 100 employers. These lists are a little silly, of course. For starters, they change every year, sometimes substantially. Are companies really transformed so much over the course of a year that they fall from, say, No. 2 to No. 13? Still,... 
Ahhh The Weekend!
Ahhh The Weekend!
Ah the weekend! I love this time of year when we are all gearing up for the holidays and getting crafty . I’ve been quite busy with work which really feels like play so I am far from complaining but I have had little time to put together a proper post. It’s been over a week since I candied, shot and ate the kumquats in the picture...

how to keep your new years resolutions with a muffin reward
It’s getting to the time when the resolutions of the new year are starting to waiver. Most people are back at work. The holidays seem like a distant memory. Old habits are creeping back in. But it doesn’t have to be like that. And I’ve found just the thing to help. If this is sounding a little bit too ‘personal development’...
