weekend...

this weekend was spent gardening, makin cinnamon rolls, riding around town with the windows down, and breakin iphones...

i made a new system for organizing all my favorite recipes.

i made mister and yoshi dog biscuits... i'm calling them "mistercuits" because he's so excited about them. the recipe is from Bernard Claytons bread book except i did add peanut butter, honey and flax seeds. 

happy election day!!!

thank you jason...for volunteering so we can all vote!!!

sol and i have a day off together yay!!! we voted this morning and then went to the new barnes and noble that just opened in our neighborhood for coffee. i bought this bread book it has tons of recipes and we're going to make "cold weather potato chowder with caraway cheese" from the cookbook Sunday Soup. it is very grey and damp here today. might be my ideal day off. we are very excited to watch the news tonight...mister is a little down though...he is a republican you know.

.

sorry i didn't get to taking any pics of the clothes i got yesterday... i went to the farmers market this morning to get soup supplies. since the weather is turning all i've been wanting is soup, so made chicken noodle and tortilla to freeze. i also made bread for the first time..and i have to say it wasn't difficult and definitely worth the little extra time. 

yellow...

yellow is favorite color right now, as you can see. i just went to the nursery today and picked up a couple of succulents and also some ferns that i haven't potted yet. the yellow pot i got at an antique store up in salisbury,nc. the cream one i picked up at the nursery. the corn dip in the above picture is the ugliest, but tastiest dip ever.

recipe:

1 bag frozen corn (mix of yellow & white)

1 brick of cream cheese

some cumin

some diced jalapenos

-heat up corn and then mix all together, good with tortilla chips

thank you to jason for sharing this dip with me..i think i'm going to name it "fugly corn dip"

monday rain...

why does it always rain on my days off???

dinner last night, gumbo and cornbread muffins.
