Say hello to my little friend

Is there nothing this miracle device can't do? First, after being in storage for... years??? it miraculously still works! Blends, crushes... keeps me "relatively" healthy! Sure, i need to move as well. But this little gem... bliss. Two morning recipes:

(1) Light morning concoction: 3-4 pieces of pineapple, one glass of water, tbsp hemp seeds, 1-2 tbsp coconut flakes, 1 tbsp chia seeds, half banana, nice chunk of ginger. 

(2) I may have mentioned that my juice recipes can sometimes backfire. For whatever reason, this one worked: sliver of ginger, handful of kale, 3-4 pieces of parsley, half an orange, half of a golden beet, ice, full glass of water, blend. It was shockingly good and refreshing!

This is a blog by a new cook. A late bloomer, I am finally learning the joy of cooking. After months of sending pics to friends of my latest concoctions (some successful, some not so much!) and describing in detail my excitement over a new ingredient or technique, a friend suggested starting a blog. So here it is. Purely for fun, and hopefully fun to read. This blog will host my latest cooking adventures  —"Chef" Donna

Cookbooks are a go-to for inspiration. I can stare at them for hours, soaking in the recipes, as well as the history and culture, the beautiful images and intricate design. I write biographical books for a living, and cookbooks (even when I wasn’t cooking) have always been a favorite to read. I'll be posting a new cookbook each month, starting with a few from my mother's cooking library.
