Cracking eggs one carton at a time.
In all my years on this planet, I've only made my own pesto once. Once! I've always just settled for the jarred stuff at the grocery store, not realizing how easy, and probably better for you, it would be to just make it myself. No preservatives, no weird ingredients you can't pronounce, and a good… Continue reading Roasted Vegetable & Pesto Quinoa
A quick trip to Kansas was in store for Rob & I this last weekend. Rob's best friend was getting married, so we drove up on Friday to make it to the rehearsal and wedding on Saturday.

I was locked out by mother nature. I finally was able to yank my door open and get my ice… Continue reading Edamame Succotash
Greek food has taken over my life. I'm consumed with thoughts of gyros, moussaka, and falafels. Give me feta or give me death! That's what I always say. The thing about Greek food is, well, it's just plain delicious. My favorite is moussaka, and a Greek restaurant (one of many) here in Oklahoma City, Zorba's,… Continue reading Spanakopita Baked Potatoes
