April Roundup

April 30, 2012 by katieatthekitchendoor

What I’ve been reading, eating, seeing, and generally digging this month. I only managed to get through two books this month, but, surprise, surprise,  they both happened to be food-related.  The Saucier’s Apprentice is an easy read (a prerequisite for anything I’m going to attempt reading at 8am in a crowded subway car) and a fun look into the cooking school vacation circuit in Europe – I have plenty of pages bookmarked with vacation ideas. It has surprisingly mixed reviews […]

Greatist Collaboration: Chipotle-Honey Chicken Tenders

April 27, 2012 by katieatthekitchendoor

Even though my roommates make some variation of roast chicken breasts probably 80% of the nights that they cook, I almost never think to do the same.  I’m more of the one-pot-soup or pretend-healthy-pasta type.  However, after seeing this recipe in Melissa Clark’s In The Kitchen With A Good Appetite and realizing that it was perfect for Greatist (easy, quick, and healthy), I decided to join my roommates in their nightly chicken-baking routine. Only partly through, I got distracted.  See, […]

Strawberry Breakfast Cake for My Parents

April 25, 2012 by katieatthekitchendoor

Today is my parents’ 25th anniversary. 25 years!  That’s a long time to be with someone.  And I can’t imagine it’s a particularly easy thing to do, for them, or for anyone.  But my parents are still cute together.  They still hold hands. They still tease each other, and play.  Two summers ago, our family was out on an island picnic in Maine, and I remember watching my mom chase my dad around the beach, both laughing, and thinking that […]

Tequila and Lime Skirt Steak Tacos

April 22, 2012 by katieatthekitchendoor

My dad told me that since my birthday week is over, I can’t write any more posts about it.  So this post will have to be not about  the event for which I threw this party, but rather about the party itself, which could’ve been for any old reason, really.  It could’ve been an early Cinco de Mayo party, or a Mother’s Day party to which I didn’t invite my mother.  Or even a “just because it’s grilling season” party. […]

Birthday Waffles!

April 18, 2012 by katieatthekitchendoor

It’s not my birthday without waffles.  And today is my birthday, so therefore, I made waffles.  Although, to be honest, I made them last night and popped them in the fridge because I’m not that much of a morning person. One year, my birthday was on Good Friday, so we couldn’t have anything indulgent and my mom was fasting completely.  I just have this vivid memory of walking around outside on a gorgeous sunny day being really upset because the whole […]
