"Some people like to paint pictures, or do gardening, or build a boat in the basement. Other people get a tremendous pleasure out of the kitchen, because cooking is just as creative and imaginative an activity as drawing, or wood carving, or music."

Here's what's cooking with Jean....
Sorry for the lack of posts lately! Between Home improvements...no, dare I use the word home "improvements" when all I've managed to do this month is tear apart our home. The 1/2 bath off of our kitchen is as close I came to creating a culinary masterpiece!
And this sunset from the middle of Nantucket Sound...we've been gone for almost 2 weeks escaping the DC heat to visit with friends and family in Rhode Island and S. Yarmouth, Massachusetts.
Bringing home a cooler full of striped bass (also known as "rock fish") that my husband caught has left me trying new recipes with this favorite fish of ours. Of course, at the end of the day nothing beats searing the fillets in olive oil, salt and pepper. One small addition that I picked up on our honeymoon that I highly recommend is any product from Coastal Goods. These spices add so much flavor!
We've been busy, but a sense of normalcy is around the corner, we hope, and I hope that means more cooking!
