We're back!

Took a long while off but will attempt six updates in the next seven days. We're pulling recipes that look good from Alton Brown's Good Eats: The Early Years, a rocking Christmas present.

To be clear from my end though, this isn't cashing in on the Julie & Julia or whatever (although Achewood did cover the phenomenon well before the movie, so I still feel like it would be a legitimate go-to-for-inspiration source) - this is just a chance for us to cook up good food. That and try our hand at that everlasting bane of commercial photography - trying to keep food from looking like crap in pictures.

So read on for our first entry in quite some time....
