          Picture
          This section is my workspace. I'm listing a few recipes that are first-timers, others I plan to try because they sound good, or a few that I think I can rehabilitate. I like to think of it as 'market research'.

          Feel free to try them and let me know what you think. Click here to email me.

          Definitely Try These at Home
          Macadami-Arugula Pasta and Lemon Arugula Pasta


          r i p e n i n g   o n   t h e   v i n e
          New recipes that have garnered a qualified thumbs-up from the family. Constructive criticism ranges from, "Yep, it's pretty close" to "It's good, but it's kinda ugly" to "Well, I'll eat it because it's there." Needless to say, they all need a little more tweaking, but feel free to check these out too.

          These just didn't work. Let me know if you have a fix!

          Tangerine Spinach
            Tangerine juice, nutmeg, pepper. Even bacon didn't help this one.

          Thai Corn Cakes
             Working on a better corn cakes recipe using jalapenos instead.

          Bacon/Bok Choy/Tomato/Mozzarella Pizza
            The idea was to make a sort of BLT pizza. Bok choy and bacon work 
             well together. Bacon, tomato and mozzarella work well together.
             However, the transitive property does not apply here.
