Tomato bruschetta
It’s been forever since I last cooked something for the Cooking Italy group which is all about the wonderful book “The Essentials of Classic Italian Cooking” by Marcella Hazan. You know how things like that go; in between cooking for the Daring Cooks, the Daring Bakers and various other cooking groups and challenges… [...]
Creamy pasta
It’s been almost one and a half year ago that I last made this dish… Where did time go?? I cannot believe it is that long but here we are in 2010 and I made this before in 2008… The recipe comes originally from the book “Rond de wereld in 80 recepten” (around [...]
Delicious pasta
What I sometimes like to do and I am sure I have told this before, but o well, I am getting old so then it is allowed to repeat onces self (within reason ofcourse..lol) When I need to work in the studio I sometimes decide I want to prepare a nice [...]
In the spirit of the season I figured I would do a give-a-way as I saw this fun book while browsing for christmas presents on the web. I ordered two copies; one for me and one for the lucky winner of the give away. It’s a book with Dutch recipes, called Dutch Delight and while [...]

Delicious cannelloni
I can’t remember when I decided to make this dish; I think I had seriously bought too much vegetables while at the market and simply was looking for ways to use it all before it would go bad. We have the entire series of Jamie at Home on DVD and we love to [...]
Spaghetti with crushed tomatoes
I was asked by the lovely Olga from Mango and Tomato to write a guestblog for the time when she will be on holiday…. Ofcourse with a blog called Mango and tomato, it would be fun to choose a dish with either mango or tomato (or both) in them. Now I [...]
Delicious pasta
Today was just one of those days… I wasn’t particularly busy, but Tom had been standing in a traffic jam almost the entire day; crossing the country from one end to the next. I knew he was going to be home rather late, so I wanted to make something quick yet tasty. It [...]
Macaroni with peas, bacon and ricotta
After working today I figured I wanted something tasty and quick. Quick these days seems to be the major keyword…. Tom is out tonight, which meant I get to make things he doesn’t like and he doesn’t like ricotta, so when I saw this recipe in the [...]
Garlic spaghetti with bacon strips and basil
We are having a ridiculously busy week this week and that also means that we will not be eating together at all…
Yesterday evening I had a preweddingshoot with a weddingcouple, tonight Tom has a party for the announcement of the best company of the year, tomorrow [...]
