dinner

This dinner was good. I mean really good.
I’ll start with the roasted cauliflower cuz it was the easiest.

These were Sunday breakfast.
I blogged about my usual waffle recipe earlier this week, bemoaning the work involved. I found this recipe in the September 2009 issue of Rachael Ray’s magazine, and it sounded much simpler- not to mention it added a savory element that sounded good to [...]

I’m gonna confess right up front that this recipe is a total cheat. But it is so fast, and so good, that I will do it many, many more times!
I found this recipe in the January 2009 issue of “Real Simple” magazine. The article was about short cuts [...]

pecan pie bar
Originally uploaded by All Things Mimi
I sent a batch of these to school with Dev today…insuring his instant popularity with his fellow teachers!
