While I never joined Randy's blog, I like to go there and read. I copied off his cinnamon rolls recipe to try.
Sarah, you are highlighting an important point about community: Relationships have to be worked at in order to be maintained and to grow. They don't just happen. I think that the work that Mike is doing, and that all of us are doing by posting old threads and the treasure trove of recipes, will bring some people back. If someone googles a screen name or recipe name, this site will begin to come up, and they will discover that it is even better than what we had at the Baking Circle. It takes a leap of faith, having lost one community, to join another. As a Navy brat, I'm more used to it than others may be.
Some people also may be taking a break, and that happened on the Baking Circle as well. Ron was there before I was, but he left before I joined, and only came back in the past six months or so. I really miss his puns! Also, some people see a baking site as "temptation" to bake, eat. and gain weight. We had even some long-time BCs comment that that was why they stayed away from KAF.
I miss a lot of people who are not here. I do hope that they will find us again. I'm also looking forward to welcoming new people.
I do not get to do many vinaigrettes, as my husband does not do well with acidic foods. When I saw this topic, I remembered a recipe for Pasta con il Pollo e il Rosmarino--Pasta with Rosemary Chicken that appears in Nick Stellino's Glorious Italian Cooking: Romantic Meals, Menus and Music from Cucina Amore (Putnam, 1999), pp. 78-79. I made it for him once, but he said it did not go well with his digestion. Sigh.
In this recipe, boneless chicken breasts are marinated overnight in the refrigerator in 4 Tbs. olive oil, 3 Tbs. balsamic vinegar, 1/2 tsp salt, and 2 Tbs. chopped rosemary. The next day, the chicken is roasted, then cut into pieces and served with pasta in a light cream sauce. It is delicious, and I miss being able to do this kind of cooking. It would be a more interesting post in the "What Did You Cook?" thread than what I have been posting.
I used to watch Nick Stellino's show, Cucina Amore, on PBS. Then, suddenly, he was gone, and a not very charismatic host narrated dishes by the "chefs" of Cucina Amore. I googled him, and he is still cooking and has a PBS show. I must not be in an area where it is shown.
OK, I will give it a try tomorrow and report back. I'm not the most techy person, which is why I posted only one picture during my time on the BC.
Part of the issue is that I would have to figure out how to save her pictures into a separate file from which I could then upload for each recipe.
I have not received any spam e-mail of this type. I even checked my junk and spam files. My workplace is pretty good at bouncing suspicious ones (and sometimes legitimate ones).
I don't know whether to be angrier at the insurance companies for refusing to cover Cindy's medication, or at the drug companies for charging so much for what patients need.
Thanks, Mike! This list is very helpful.
I went back and corrected the heading on the three recipes from PaddyL, so they should all show up together on the next search.
Quick Note: The five I posted from Mrs. Cindy were in threads rather than her recipe section. I remember someone (do not recall who) saying she had sent Mrs. Cindy her recipes, so I directed my efforts at saving other people's. Thus, if anyone has Mrs. Cindy's, they will need to be posted.
OK, I've added Paddy's, Pmiker's, and Teachingcotton's. Don't worry, I have more, as I am sure Rottiedogs does as well. Zen said that there were 4000 recipes. I'm willing to bet that we will have at least 1000 on this site before we are finished putting them in. Tomorrow, I will work on virginislander's.
It would be helpful if we could have a list of whose recipes have been uploaded (or rather cut and pasted) into the recipe site so that we do not duplicate efforts.
