Poverty is not something I talk very much about on Blog Well Done, but given the importance of Blog Action Day, I thought I would take a moment to discuss it. As my friend at the Peanut Butter Project has rightly said, it is difficult to eat well when you are in poverty. This statement […]

I Have Apples, Yes I Do!
So in a fit of what can only be called madness, I bought a bushel of apples. Now, I must eat these apples… So I am going to start cooking apples… Apple cakes, apple muffins, apple sauces, apple pies, apple main courses, apple sides. What I want from you all are suggestions… Give me your […]

Remembering 9/11
Somehow given the gravity of this day, talking about food seems somehow inappropriate. Talk to everyone tomorrow.
Kiva and Food Blogs
Heidi from 101 Cookbooks has again inspired me, though this time without a recipe. After reading this post about setting up 101 Cookbooks as a Kiva.com lending team, I was inspired to log back into my Kiva account and make sure that all of my donations were allocated. For those of you unfamilar with Kiva, they make […]
In the Words of Ron Burgandy…
I’m kind of a big deal. 🙂 … or something like that. I did want to say that I was recently given the opportunity to guest post on so you wannabee a Domestik Goddess? which was a great opportunity. I really enjoyed reading through her site. I got a lot of recipes and gardening ideas while my […]
