Pizza Night







Carolyn got stuck in traffic so I thought it would be fun to have some pizza toppings ready for when she got home. She put these together and they cam out great!

Shaved Asparagus Salad

Today I dreamed up a new way to serve asparagus as salad for the post Christmas dinner Carolyn and I are cooking for my family. We couldn't agree on the ingredients so we each made our own version for tasting. What do you think looks best?

Carolyn's: asparagus, parmasean, artichoke hearts, arugula, and lemon dressing


Dave's: asparagus, parmesan, artichoke hearts, arugula, lemon dressing, proscuitto, radish


We are still in discussion about what to serve, but both were amazing!

Carolyn made this awesome breakfast casserole. It had bacon, bread, cheese and was topped with an egg! This was the perfect hearty dish to start the day!

Grilled Turkey

This thanksgiving we wanted to try something different than the same old turkey in the oven. The fear of burning down the house stopped us from frying one. Here are the results:

Ethiopian anyone?

If you are like me, you probably didnt know, or forgot, that ethiopian food is so tasty. We went with a few friends to little ethiopia recently and it was fantastic. Maybe not the prettiest food ever, but yummy.

Beware. The spongy bread fills you up!
