I baked my first loaf of yeast bread in November of 2006, and even though that loaf was far from spectacular, I realized that there was no going back. I've been known to bake eight loaves in the span of three days, and there are few things I love more than giving away all that bread. Most of my loaves are 100% whole grain - don't let them tell you that it can't be done!

From healthy weekday breakfasts to more extravagant weekend spreads, I love that first meal of the day. Whether you make it savory or sweet, simple or sophisticated, it's one of the most versatile meals out there. In seeking to override the hurts caused the attitude that Pop-tarts or vending machine donuts with a Mountain Dew make an acceptable break to your fast, I present my homage to that often-overlooked, much-maligned meal

I live in Alaska so getting wonderfully fresh seafood is not a problem. Most Alaska seafood requires next to nothing to improve its flavor and interest, so many of these recipes will be quick and simple to prepare and wonderfully light and fresh. For best results when grilling halibut, remove from heat when an internal temperature of 140 degrees is reached.

We've all seen the walls and walls of kitchen gadgets, appliances, and cookware in those fancy kitchen stores - but what is really useful and what will just take up counterspace? What will work as promised and what will fail miserably? Here're my two cents based on my experiences in the kitchen.

You'll almost always find soups in my fridge. I'll make a big stock pot's worth on the weekend and eat it throughout the week when I don't have as much time to cook. Since I rely on them so heavily for meals, they're usually nutritious vegetable and lean protein-rich concoctions with full flavor.
