I actually had a blog post featuring some tasty recipes today... 

Last night, I made the Portobello Steaks (which are in the cookbook and on this blog), along with Braised Asparagus (from the cookbook), Cauliflower Mashed potatoes (from the blog) and Beer Bread (also from the blog) but my camera has decided to be shy and refuses to upload....

Cookbook Countdown: 3 Days to Go: Mexican Cabbage

Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon Category:

After 28 hours of travel time (it took more than a day, both ways, to travel between the Caribbean and Whistler in Canada), I wasn't in the mood for much cooking. Though, I was also desperate for a healthy, home cooked meal after 28 hours of airport food...

I went to college in Charleston, South Carolina -- which is Scott's hometown (and where we met). 

I am a "yankee" by birth and personality-- I am a fast-talker, crafty and loud (especially when I am either excited or angry). I was also raised in a progressive lifestyle both at home in within my community. My parents weren't liberal hippies (as much as I'd have liked them to be) but they have always prided themselves of being "hip" and …
