Rhubarb Fool with Cardamom Cream
Wednesday, May 16, 2012
This is probably an odd pick of recipe from April Bloomfield’s beautiful cookbook, A Girl and Her Pig. The young British chef has made a name for herself cooking with animals and all forms of fat. Those recipes looked great,…
Rhubarb and Raspberry Crostata
Thursday, June 2, 2011
I’m not sure how rhubarb and strawberry became such a famous couple. For me, rhubarb and raspberry are the superior pairing. I know, I know- rhubarb and strawberries are the first “fruits” of spring and it makes sense that they…
Rhubarb Mania
Tuesday, May 31, 2011
I think rhubarb is fantastic. Not only is it a harbinger of summer in the Midwest, it is so perfectly tart that I never grow tired of it. A couple of weekends ago, I bought about 4 pounds of rhubarb…
Rhubarb Mania!
Monday, June 1, 2009
I’ve been a little MIA. I got knocked out with a flu (not swine) and haven’t cooked anything in over a week. Funny how quickly we can lose all interest in food. The good news is that I am feeling…
The Big 8

Black Pepper Grapefruit Meringue Pie
Monday, March 30, 2015
I ate a lot of good food on our recent trip to Detroit, but the best thing I ate was the pie from Sister Pie. I’d heard about them through one of their bakers, who kindly wrote and offered me…
Spring Drinks

It has been a while since I wrote about a cocktail on these pages. What’s wrong with me? Am I avoiding the word mixology? This little beauty features rhubarb juice, a juice I didn’t know existed. At least I had…

Monday, November 19, 2012
[This annual gift guide has become one of my favorite parts of Lottie + Doof. I really enjoy putting this together, and this year I had fun shooting all of these good things “on location” in our apartment. As always,…
