Cranberry, chicken, and barley stir fry

January 6, 2010

just before simmering Back when I was still teaching and there would be gatherings of students and faculty for a potluck meal, my a-bit-too-substantial tuna casseroles were the butt of a few jokes. Once, some of the students kidnapped my casserole and did a photographic study of it positioned in various locations around Tampa. Wish [...]

Friendship

December 31, 2009

If you were to read almost any post in Inkwatu, you’d soon discover the word, “friend,” somewhere in the text. Very few of the places described in Inkwatu I discovered myself. Friends shared with me the things and places they liked. In turn, I shared them with you. Family is important, of course, but friends [...]

St. Petersburg’s Grand Central Chili Cookoff

December 5, 2009

Last weekend was the St. Petersburg Grand Central Chili Cookoff. This was the third year I’ve attended this event and it’s one I look forward to. It is amazing how varied and how original some of the chili recipes can be. I honestly don’t know how the judges reach a conclusion. I know it would [...]

Holidays, Home and Hearth

November 27, 2009

Holidays are all about home and hearth, which is to say, family and food. Last week, Inkwatu was a post about sharing a morning with my son (the family part of home and hearth) at a dog park in Atlanta. Today’s Inkwatu is a repost of recipe teasers (both family and food) from my sister’s [...]

OPEN HEARTH BBQ AT JAZZY’S There is a gold standard for barbecues: Leatha’s, in Hattiesburg, Mississippi (6374 U S Hwy 98; 601-271-6003). I had the privilege of tasting that standard when my Mississippi Cuzn Don treated me and part of his family to supper there. I got to experience, first hand, the prodigious memory of [...]

Shish Kebab & Turkish Cuisine

September 5, 2009

TURKISH TEA Two friends of mine are planning an extended trip to Turkey this spring. They will be spending 10 whole days in Istanbul, allowing themselves to get to know the place a little deeper than the typical tourist. They did something similar with Finland a few years ago. They make the experience last well [...]

Geraldson’s Community Farm Market

August 1, 2009

Since this post was originally published, I’ve learned that the photos I’d taken were not from Geraldson’s Community Farm, but from a different, privately owned, Geraldson’s Farm in the area. Therefore, I’ve withdrawn those photos, leaving just the following text. Many ideas from “our” generation–folks who were young way back in the 60s–are finally becoming [...]
