    About Me: I am the host of the Saturday Weekly Dish show. I came to FM 107.1 by way of the Lori and Julia show where I used to fill in from time to time. I have spent 20 years in the radio or publishing business at various media outlets around town. This is my second tour of duty at Hubbard Broadcasting.

    When I am not doing the radio show I am a partner in a business called www.Printz.com and www.Postcardbuilder.com. At Printz we print business cards, brochures, postcards, note cards, letterhead, envelopes, posters and basically anything 4-color that can fit on an 11 x 17 canvas. Our company also runs a web site called www.postcardbuilder.com that prints direct mail postcards and can purchases lists for small businesses.

    When I am not working I am a mom to 10-year-old Ellie and a wife to Kurt. I have 3 sisters, 2 brothers, a step mom, step-dad, dad, mother in law, great grandma, in-laws and some great women friends.
    Hobbies: I run typically 4 days a week. I have completed three marathons and various half marathons. I am done running marathons for now.
    I love food and am obsessed by all aspects of it like cooking, dining out, cookie magazines, collecting cook books, the food channel and Top Chef. I have a cabin in Ely Minnesota where I will spend most weekends in the summer with my family. We sail in the Caribbean and love to travel and someday we are going to chuck it all and sail for a year in the Mediterranean – ahhh – someday.

    I am a huge fan of the Twin Cities and have lived here most of my life. I like finding new treasures about the city and sharing it with others.

    Butternut Squash, Sage, and Goat Cheese Ravioli with Hazelnut Brown-Butter Sauce Gourmet | January 1997

     

    Yield: Makes 30 ravioli, serving 6 generously
    ingredients For filling
    a 2-pound butternut squash, halved lengthwise and seeded
    1 medium onion, chopped (about 1 1/2 cups)
    1 1/2 teaspoons ground sage
    1 tablespoon unsalted butter
    1 garlic clove, minced
    3 ounces aged goat cheese, grated (about 2/3)

    60 won ton wrappers, thawed if frozen
    1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter
    1/3 cup hazelnuts,toasted lightly and skinned and chopped coarse
    preparation

    Preheat oven to 425°F. and lightly grease a baking sheet.


    Make filling:

    Put squash halves, flesh sides down, an baking sheet and roast in middle of oven 30 minutes, or until flesh is very tender. When squash is cool enough to handle, scoop out flesh into a bowl and discard skin. Mash squash with a fork until smooth.

    While squash is roasting, in a skillet cook onion and sage in butter with salt and pepper to taste over moderate heat, stirring, 5 minutes, or until onion is golden brown. Stir in garlic and cook, stirring, 1 minute.

    Cool onion mixture slightly and add to squash. Add goat cheese and stir to combine well.

    In a 6-quart kettle bring 5 quarts salted water to a gentle boil for ravioli.

    Put 1 won ton wrapper on a lightly floured surface, keeping remaining wrappers in plastic wrap, and mound 1 tablespoon filling in center. Lightly brush edges of wrapper with water and put a second wrapper over first, pressing down around filling to force out air and seal edges well. If desired, trim excess dough with a round cutter or sharp knife. Transfer ravioli to a dry kitchen towel. Make more ravioli with remaining wrappers and filling in same manner, transferring as formed to towel and turning occasionally to dry slightly.

    In skillet cook butter with hazelnuts over moderate heat until butter begins to brown, about 3 minutes, and immediately remove from heat (nuts will continue to cook). Season hazelnut butter with salt and pepper and keep warm, covered.

    Cook ravioli in 3 batches in gently boiling eater 6 minutes, or until they rise to surface and are tender (do not let water boil vigorously once ravioli have been added). Carefully transfer ravioli as cooked with a slotted spoon to a large shallow baking pan and add enough cooking water to reach 1/2 inch up side of pan. Keep ravioli warm, covered.

    Transfer ravioli with a slotted spoon ) letting excess cooking liquid drip off) to 6 plates and top with hazelnut brown-butter sauce.

    Kyoto Sushi in Eagen

    Saturday, November 7, 2009, 09:58 AM CST [General]

    Stepanie and I visited Kyoto Sushi in Easen. The service was really friendly and everyone seemed to be having a good time. The restaurant was nicely done inside and the food was fast. We liked the Tempura Shrimp and the rolls were colorful though the sushi was a bit warm when we though it should be cold and firm. They had a good wine list.

    Here is what we ate:

    Wellness feels good

    Tuesday, November 3, 2009, 07:51 AM CST [General]

    I am finally shaking off whatever crud has had a hold of me since last Wednesday. I know tons of people who are battling colds, H1N1, seasonal flu, allergies and whatever other crud is going around. I am a baby when I am sick. The only thing that makes me feel better is getting in my warm cozy bed and sleep. I seriously want the rest of the world to stop doing what its doing until I am well enough to participate again - then everyone can resume what they are doing - it is complelety irrational I know.

    When life slowly gets back to normal - I reflect back on how happy I am to have my good health. The simple things like being able to stay up later than my 11 year old, a run in the AM and being awake and alert enough to read my newspaper and care whats going on in the world.

    Health feels good.
