Add the beaten eggs, flour, and vanilla and mix well.

Preserving Life by Preserving Food: The Methods and Materials of America’s Food Keeping Traditions
From ships galleys to royal patisseries, in slave cabins and kitchens of the “big house,” food sustained both human life and historical cultural traditions. In the days before refrigeration, preservation methods were just as important as the way food was grown or cooked. The culinary traditions of storing food for the future played a critical role in shaping the material culture of kitchens and storerooms across America. This presentation traces the developments in food preservation practices that were used to combat the inherent perishability of culinary fare. Taking a closer look at techniques like salting, smoking, pickling, and potting, this talk explores the objects and tools necessary to “put up” provisions and how preserved products influenced the creation of regional and national cuisines.

A Woman That Keeps Good Orders: Female Tavern Keepers in 18th Century NH
Government regulations, licensing, handling drunks, controlling the flow of information –why would the colonial-era government allow women to own and manage a tavern? Focusing on the life of Ann Jose Harvey Slayton, this presentation will explore the contradictions between the legal status of women versus the social realities of colonial times.
Using documents related to Harvey Slayton’s 20+ year tenure running a tavern, humanist and historian Marcia Schmidt Blaine explores the world of female tavern keepers while asking, “If a tavern was the most disruptive spot in town, why would a woman want to keep one?”

Chicken Quesadilla Pie Recipe
Full recipe here:
Have you ever bitten into a quesadilla and wished there were just more to it? Those crispy, cheesy-goodness-filled tortillas are so packed with flavor, but they disappear so quickly! Plus, making them typically means spending a lot of time over the stove as you prepare each one, so we wanted to come up with a way to make a quesadilla dinner that was more filling, and that made a more well-rounded meal that our family could enjoy.
After a little brainstorming we came up with the idea to turn this yummy dish into a pie of sorts, filled with chicken, chiles, cheese, and eggs, all sitting atop a tasty tortilla that holds things together. Trust us, this behemoth of a “pie” makes for one fun, delicious dinner that our family loved and devoured. It looks and tastes incredible, so get excited for the rave reviews that will pour in once you make it!
