  • Lost Items — Look Familiar?

  • 6/12: Sandwiches

    Last week was souper duper. Really. Anna brought cheese and Jeff brought bread and more cheese! Mimi made matzo ball soup! Talithia made miso soup! Stuart made gazpacho! Ray made garlic knots and challah and banana fritters! Sam made frozen yogurt! Good eats were had by all. Some of the die-hard-anti-cold-soup-folks even thought the gazpacho…

  • 6/5/2009: Summer Soups (Hot or Cold), Assorted Cheeses and Homemade Bread

    If you missed last week, it was amaaazing to have just dessert. Sam made mini homemade chocolate-dipped meringues in three flavors:  vanilla, chocolate and coffee. AND Sam made homemade strawberry-lime frozen yogurt AND Sam made homemade apple galletes AND Sam made homemade sauces. Deena and Art made yummy cookies Allegra made amazing “quesadillas” with cream…

  • FND 05/29: Just Desserts

    It’s a 5th Friday – a rare occurence, so we’re going to try something unusual: just desserts. You always wanted this to happen and it never did (did it? you lucky rascal.) I will make a galette or 2; they will go fabulously with feta and a fruit reduction. Oh yes, it’s all about AND.…

  • 5/22/09: Tacos

    If you missed last week’s pizza-o-rama, you might not know that the national pizza of Germany is tuna fish pizza! It was pretty tasty, even though I was quite skeptical. Sam’s gourmet white pizza was a big hit and the other gazillion pizzas we made weren’t too shabby, either. This week the theme is TACOS.…

  • Pizza – May 15th

    We’ll roll it and stretch it and throw it (which is stretching it) and cook it and eat it and you can help! We like to make pizza from scratch once a month; this month I’m eyeing a recipe for white pie – not something I usually go for, but I can respect it. Traditional…

  • Comfort Food – May 8th 2009

    I will cook up a vat of mashed potatoes to go with the cauldron of collards (or kale if I can find some). What do Californians count as comfort food? Maybe not collards. Too bad. For a main dish…hmmm ham hocks? No? A roast chicken is better? Ok. And a vegetarian sump’n, I guarantee it’ll…

  • No FND: May 1, 2009

    Hi Folks, This week we are headed to a play in LA.  It is very unusual for us to make plans on a Friday and this one slipped in long before we were back in the FND groove. Friday 5/8 is the Math Dept Party, but I suspect Sam will host FND without the math…

  • Italian-o-rama: April 24, 2009

  • FND Introduction: April 17, 2009

    Dear Friends, Now that we have our own place, we are resuming our tradition of informal Friday potlucks. We will host Friday night dinner (that’s FND for short) every week that we are in town. On Wednesdays we’ll send out a theme (pizza, tacos, stir fry, breakfast, etc.) so you know what kinds of things…
