Not only will you find fantastic, seasonal recipes on this site, you’ll find musings on food, cookbooks, cooking, and entertaining. The Index of Recipes and Musings page is a good page to start. This all began with a restaurant habit. Now we do it ourselves – we grow, cook, and eat our own veg, and buy most of our meat and dairy locally. If only we could grow lemons and coffee in Connecticut! We do still patronize restaurants for fun and inspiration, just not as often as we once did. It’s all good. Welcome to melinmac cooks!
