I enjoyed this lovely soup at the Worcester Museum of Art, in Massachusetts. Their café is a lovely place for lunch and their signature Pear and Wild Mushroom Soup is a must try it. It just stood out, so how could I not try it? Oh, I’m so happy I did, because it’s absolutely delicious. And is the inspiration for this lovely elixir. Continue reading

I have an Instant Pot. I love it. I have a slow-cooker. And I love that, too. And either is a great way to make fruit butter…but, today, we’re making Apple-Pear Butter…mmm…autumn in a jar! Continue reading

Years ago, when The Goddess was a mere imp, she found a recipe for pears with bleu cheese, all dressed up with a vinaigrette. It was heavenly. This plays off that delicious memory. Continue reading

Pears and bleu cheese have a natural affinity for each other. They are a perfect pair (pun intended!), so to speak. But, you might be rather surprised to learn that they’re also up for a threesome, with that sexy minx, cauliflower. Continue reading

Since The Goddess knows she can’t get anything by you, she’s not even going to try. You’re thinking, didn’t The Goddess post a loaf? Well, yes she did…The Roasted Butternut, Brie and Caramelized Onions en Croute. Okay, so she screwed up and reversed the order of the posts, but she not going to trash this, because it really is a delicious option. And the cooler weather seems like the perfect time for this oozy, delicious grilled cheese. Continue reading

Applesauce is delicious. This is better. My sister is the creator of this. Years ago, she made this for The Progeny. They loved it. They still do. I used to make huge amounts of this and can it in quart jars. The Eldest One used to eat it by the quart, quite literally. Continue reading

Savoy is less coarse, but regular old cabbage holds up very well to sautéing. Continue reading
