Here's What I Came Home To

Where is my kitchen sink?! Note to husband---this is not the kind of "surprise" I enjoy. Books, yes. Food, always. Movies, sounds perfect. No place to rinse out my Starbucks personal cup?! Oh, no you didn't.

I'm in love with this new outfit of Zach's. Okay, outfit might be stretching it...onesie. I have to share. As usual, the picture is sub standard, but if you click here , you can go to the website where other cuteness can be found. Better pictures there. I guess that's why I don't get paid the big bucks, I can spread the word, but my advertising photo skills are lacking. No matter. Still a cute onesie. And still a cute baby.

August Goal: 30 Days of New Recipes

Month eight is complete!  August was a month of learning about new ingredients, trying new recipes, making a few mistakes in the kitchen, and filling our hearts and bellies with happiness and deliciousness.  I’m so glad I made the eighth month of my twelve month long challenge/journey, a culinary challenge.  Last month, in July, my challenge was to document delight…I documented it everyday for thirty days and then neglected to document my DELIGHT journey on the Blog.  It could still happen…   August is my youngest sons birth month.  He loves to cook and bake and cause general chaos in the kitchen so it seemed appropriate that I make August the month of new recipes.  Also, I love books…to include cookbooks…which I seem to have a pretty nice collection of.  Anyway, I have all these cookbooks and many of them hadn’t even been cracked open or recipes attempted…until now.  Most all the cookbooks turned out to be winners (with only a couple of non-...
