The Cottage Life: November 2008
http://thecottagewitch.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Pictures, stories and recipes from my life in a 100-year-old cottage. Sunday, November 30, 2008. The house smells absolutely fantastic today and this is the reason: turkey stock! 1) Dump the turkey carcass unceremoniously into a large stockpot. 2) Cut an onion into quarters; don't bother to peel it. 3) Wash a carrot and celery stalk; don't bother peeling those either. Cut them into large chunks and dump them in. 4) Add a quart of water (about 16 cups), or enough to cover the meat and veg. 9) Put on the l...

I have moved, no one lives here anymore. On: November 28, 2008. Comments Off on I have moved, no one lives here anymore. I have moved. Please join me at my new blog location kellytirman.com. To bake or not to bake, that’s the question. On: November 23, 2008. Growing up I always wanted an Easy Bake Oven, unfortunately, I never got one. To be honest I have always felt slightly jilted about this and even as an adult I have found myself wandering up and down the toy aisle trying to justify purchasing one.

The Cottage Life: CSA Recipe - Sauteed Swiss Chard
http://thecottagewitch.blogspot.com/2009/06/csa-recipe-sauteed-swiss-chard.html
Pictures, stories and recipes from my life in a 100-year-old cottage. Tuesday, June 23, 2009. CSA Recipe - Sauteed Swiss Chard. I've never had Swiss chard before. I grew up eating greens, true, but Southern greens: collards and mustards. They were always boiled to within an inch of their lives, and doused in white vinegar. One interesting note.Swiss chard isn't Swiss at all. Gourmet's Wilted Swiss Chard with Garlic, Lemon and Parmesan. 4 large Garlic Cloves. 3 lb Swiss Chard (about 3 bunches). 7) Add cha...

The Cottage Life: Taking Advantage of Summer's Bounty
http://thecottagewitch.blogspot.com/2009/06/taking-advantage-of-summers-bounty.html
Pictures, stories and recipes from my life in a 100-year-old cottage. Monday, June 22, 2009. Taking Advantage of Summer's Bounty. When I got home from work a few days ago, this was sitting on my back porch:. It makes sense - if the boxes are all the same, the farmer can keep expenses, and therefore prices, lower.). My first box consisted of the following:. A bunch of lettuce (tossed into a salad). A bunch of Swiss chard (sauteed with garlic, lemon juice and parmesan). A yellow pepper (given away).

The Cottage Life: New Windows in an Old Cottage
http://thecottagewitch.blogspot.com/2009/06/new-windows-in-old-cottage.html
Pictures, stories and recipes from my life in a 100-year-old cottage. Saturday, June 20, 2009. New Windows in an Old Cottage. For those of you not familiar with my story, I live in one of oldest - if not the. Oldest - farmhouses in the small coastal town in which I live. There's some debate on whether or not it's the oldest residential house, but it's darn close. All accounts put it somewhere around 1907-1908 (which, in coastal California, is fairly old). I heart it. A lot. Take a look at this:. CSA Reci...

The Cottage Life: Guinness-Milk Chocolate Ice Cream
http://thecottagewitch.blogspot.com/2009/06/guinness-milk-chocolate-ice-cream.html
Pictures, stories and recipes from my life in a 100-year-old cottage. Sunday, June 21, 2009. Guinness-Milk Chocolate Ice Cream. Summer here isn't exactly like the summers I remember from growing up in the Deep South. In fact, they may be just the opposite - instead of 105 degree heat and 100% humidity, we have thick fog and 60 degrees. Basically, I spend most of the summer in sweatshirts, except for the occasional, bright, gorgeous exception. Still, it's summer somewhere! Guinness-Milk Chocolate Ice Cream.

The Cottage Life: June 2009
http://thecottagewitch.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Pictures, stories and recipes from my life in a 100-year-old cottage. Saturday, June 27, 2009. I'll admit it - I can pretty much eat the same thing over and over. I'm perfectly content with a peanut butter sandwich (on homemade bread, natch) and a banana for lunch, every day. But with summer here and a kid home from school, I have to put a little more thought into what I have lying around for lunches. This is more of a method than a recipe, so feel free to add herbs and spices to taste. Now, pull the chi...

The Cottage Life: October 2009
http://thecottagewitch.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Pictures, stories and recipes from my life in a 100-year-old cottage. Sunday, October 11, 2009. No, not houses (thank God). I'm moving blogs. Or rather, consolidating blogs. I have been keeping separate blogs for lifestyle/food, and the other things I do in my daily life, and I've decided to combine them. The new blog is Kung Foo Cinema. And I hope you'll join me there. A lot of the same content will be there, and I may even move some of the Cottage Witch posts to the new space. Posted by Jenna ("Foo").
