Montana Jam and Oat Bars

September 15, 2024 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

I am a book club lady. I am in two, and each has been meeting for well over 20 years. Members who had young kids when we first got together have included us in the childrens’ weddings. And we’ve travelled together. One sweet fried invited us all to her family home in Montana a few summers ago and it was an amazing trip. We waded in the river, soaked in a hot spring, visited … [Read more...] about Montana Jam and Oat Bars

Caramelized Corn Pudding

July 23, 2017 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

I talk often here about how I come about recipes, and this one has a story with it too.

Share these with friends … [Read more...] about Double Caramel Bars

Mustard – Brown Sugar Glazed Bacon

April 28, 2010 by The Runaway Spoon 4 Comments

Most of my time is spent thinking about food.  Or eating it.  Or cooking it.  And since I have been blogging about food, I follow a lot of other food lovers. On Facebook and Twitter and other sites.  I learn all about food trends and food foibles.  And right now, bacon is hot.  In my opinion, bacon has always been hot – but it keeps showing up on all sorts of in-the-know food … [Read more...] about Mustard – Brown Sugar Glazed Bacon

I'm P.C. I think I am like most people. Somewhere in the middle between food snob and food schlub. Just being in the kitchen makes me happy. I live, mostly in my kitchen, in my hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
