I like to think that if Escoffier followed a modern food blog, this would be one of them.

My Story

I'm Rebecca Taylor and this is my virtual cookbook. I started this blog for myself and my son, Boomer. To organize recipes and favorite dishes for use in our own kitchen. I'm a passionate home cook and entertainer. I am often asked for my recipes. Here they are. I'm happy to share.

Approach

My recipes are simple in presentation and description, because when my hands are in a dough or whisking a custard on the stove, I like to glance over at the ingredients and basic, sequential instructions quickly and see the whole picture.

Speaking of Pictures

I don't post a lot of them. I don't need them to follow my own recipes. But since I'm sharing these with you and it might help you follow, I'll work on my food photography and videography. If you have ideas, please contact me!

Single Gesture

I'm an efficient cook with no one style or conceit. I believe in quality, real ingredients, traditional cooking methods, delicious, satisfying, healthy food and the power of a single gesture to transform a dish.
