Hello friends. I had to get away to warm weather and beaches and am now back in the cold Chicago weather. If you ordered something while I was away, it will be shipped now.
I was with family in the US Virgin Islands and mostly St John. I had a great time and took many photos. I didn't draw or paint even though I brought my sketchbook and materials.
But I learned a lot and am inspired for the new year and my art!
Hi there! Just popping in to say hello. I have been busy, a little under the weather with a sore throat. And getting ready for Christmas and upcoming travel plans, parties, etc.... Also, shipping many items to you! Thank you!
I am working on a vlog (video blog post) and hope to post it tonight or tomorrow. Anyway, stay warm and happy!
Wild Alaskan Cod is on sale and fresh at the grocer. So I took advantage and improvised a dish I originally remember from Cooks Illustrated Magazine's Make Ahead Edition. Usually make-ahead meals are reserved for non-fish entrees. But the cookbook had this one make-ahead fish dish. It is basically cod with olive oil, seasoning, cherry tomatoes, capers, parsley, and olives. I didn't have olives so left those out. There may have been more to the recipe but one can prepare and store in fridge for 12 - 24 hours. I only did a few hours then baked. I baked at 350 fahrenheit for about 20 to 25 min. That was plenty. The lighting in these pictures isn't the best....
