Pasta with Roast Chicken, Currants and Pine Nuts* (*Unless You Can’t Afford Them)
Two of my favorite dinners in the world are roast chicken and pasta. In fact, if I had a death sentence looming over my head, I’d ask to be executed twice so I could have two last meals, one a roast chicken, the other a big plate of pasta. Luckily, that’s no longer an issue…

Cookfight! Kim Severson vs. Julia Moskin

Absolute Bagels (And The Best Bagel Of My Life, So Far)
The journey to the best bagel of my life was a journey of precisely three miles. It started on the Upper East Side, near 2nd Avenue in the 70s, and ended close to Columbia University, on Broadway near 108th Street. I told myself that I could treat myself to a decked-out bagel if I walked…

Secrets of the Best Chefs is HERE TODAY! (Plus: A Look Behind The Scenes)
When my friends Patty and Lauren had their baby Audra this year, we had lots of conversations leading up to it about doulas and midwives and anesthesia.
