Less than 60 days to go! Year 6 of the Delaware River Loop Series kicks off soon, and spots are filling quickly—don’t wait: https://runsignup.com/DelawareRiverLoopSeries

Today we’re looking back at Loop #3 group runs from the first five years. This 7.3-mile loop starts at Bulls Island Recreation Area, heading south through the historic Prallsville Mills. From there, runners cross into PA at the Centre Bridge–Stockton Bridge, continue north along the canal past historic homes, and then return via the Roebling-built Lumberville–Raven Rock Pedestrian Bridge by the Black Bass Hotel.

Then we celebrate, and that’s 3 of 6 loops complete—halfway to the goal!

Pasta alla buttera 🍝🔥 — back in March I made this hearty Tuscan dish with my own fresh linguine instead of the traditional short tubular pasta like rigatoni. It was absolutely delicious, but next time I’ll revisit it with the right shape to really soak up that rich, spicy sauce. Can’t wait to make it again!

“The river we call Delaware, sometimes a friend, sometimes a fury, cuts between the Garden and the Keystone with an immortal rush. Born before its namesake, it has mountain siblings and, unburdened by age, will remain long after us.

But marvel at the current and you’ll realize it can only stare back; it is only a witness to adventure. Like the Delaware, we flow in the present, but while the river takes the time, we take the moments. The revolutions, the romances, the rallies — they’re ours. And so are the races.

Can we outpace these gallons that gallop from the Catskills to Cape May? The answer is less important than the effort. We can and should still try because it is here, and so are we. How grateful I am to test the impossibility.

The river runs, let’s run with it.”

Radiatori — the unofficial pasta shape of Roebling.
Inspired by old cast-iron radiators, this pasta is all about texture — perfect for holding onto rich sauces. Here in Roebling, many homes (including our One Horse House) still warm up in winter with those same radiator-style heaters.

It just feels right to give this shape a little hometown honor. After all, in a town built on steel, we know a thing or two about making things that last. 🏭🍝

Penne all’Arrabbiata
Haven’t made this since March, and I’m ready for the cooler weather to bring it back. Took a few tries to fine-tune the heat and flavor — and that last one? Near perfection. Hot, spicy, and the perfect way to warm up a cold day. 🌶️🍝

Linguine alle Vongole One of my favorites, garlicky, and gone in minutes. This batch was delicious

Linguine alle Vongole
One of my favorites, garlicky, and gone in minutes. This batch was delicious — though the linguine came out a bit thicker than planned. Next time it will be even better! 🍝🦪

Spaghetti alla Puttanesca
This one’s my first pasta dish that I’ve perfected over the years— a dish that taught me patience, balance, and the value of small adjustments. Bold and briny, just like it should be.

Fresh spaghetti, made right here in Roebling, tossed with anchovies, capers, olives, garlic, tomatoes, and just enough heat to keep things interesting.

Not reinvented. Just refined.
🍝🫒🔥
