HaviAir’s Chicken Consommé
Now that the cold weather has officially arrived in Middle Tennessee (not welcome by the way…it sucks) I felt the need for a good soup. To me a good cold weather soup needs a tasty broth, some veggies and some kind of meat. That is my favorite kind of soup, and Cazuela is the best…

Quick kitchen tip!
After doing some grocery shopping yesterday, I noticed that we had way too many eggs. Some of them have been in our fridge for awhile, and of course I didn’t want to get up in the morning and crack an egg to make an omelett and wake up with the nice smell of rotten poultry…(terrible…

A Very McClure Thanksgiving
A couple of my friends mentioned that Thanksgiving is their favorite time of the year because it kicks off the holiday season, and I agree wholeheartedly. Thanksgiving is great because you get to see your family, take off of work / school for a few days, and you know there is still a month to…

The Silly Goose – El Ganso Tonto
Every time we go to a restaurant in East Nashville we come out and think: “I love to live on this side of town. It’s so crazy that we never came here before moving”. One of our first restaurant adventures on this side of town, before we moved here, was thanks to our friend Michael…

Cazuela! – Chilean Food
Cazuela is a typical Chilean dish that is the perfect meal on a cold day. It’s a chicken soup, but it’s so much more than that. Javier first made cazuela for me when we were dating in 2008. He was trying to introduce me to different Chilean foods, but in America it’s hard to find…

He was working at a conference in California and the original plan was that he would arrive in Denver on Friday with his wife Andrea but he was able to change his ticket to arrive…

My inaugural post…and the Rodriguez/McClure Sunday
Between my facebook profile, facebook photography page, photography website, photography blog and twitter and linked in accounts, I think it’s safe to say that I’m fairly connected, or shackled to, many frontiers of the interweb. So last week when Javi decided to start a family blog on the same day that I got a google+…

Jello and Flan! – Jalea y Flan!
There are two desserts that always remind me of home, a big bowl of jello and flan (not together….butmaybe i just got a cool idea). I bet you are now thinking, “jello? That reminds me of the times I was sick, that is sick-times-food” (this is Leslie’s usual response). Well for me it is summer-time-its-so-hot-outside-that-im-melting-and-I-need-something-refreshing-and-sweet…
