wordless wednesday: sauced

Two of my (recent) favorite things

Not necessarily to be enjoyed together, but they are my favorite ‘sauces.’  The wine (Casal Garcia Vinho Verde) to be enjoyed on a hot afternoon hanging out with friends and the TO DIE FOR Butternut Squash Sauce (from Dave’s Gourmet) is perfect over raviolis or tortellinis.  And the kids love it.  Ok, so this wasn’t exactly a Wordless Wednesday post, but I wanted to share some good stuff with you.

Also, give it up to my linky friends.  Stop by and say ciao!

tri-pepper salad

I recently set this salad out along side the Avocado Fries that I posted about last week.  I think it goes really well with the typical chips, salsa and guacamole avocado fries spread at a party.  I’ve also served this as a small side salad with tri-tip from the grill.  It takes about 20 minutes [...]

avocado fries

These are a hit whenever I do them.  They shall not fail you.  They haven’t failed me. I think it’s simply the novelty and the decadence of the world most perfect food.  I’m talking about Avocado Fries.  That’s right, people.  Doesn’t that sound divine? I originally found avocado fries in the Sunset Best Recipes 2010 [...]

a mom is born

Becoming a mom for me was a choice.  I was very fortunate that when I wanted a baby it happened (and conversely when I didn’t want a baby, it didn’t happen!).  Having children with Husband was a part of the deal that I signed on for when I said, “I do.”  If it were not [...]

sytycd finale

Wednesday’s So You Think You Can Dance was the final performance before the finale.  Hands down it was the best show of the season.  But it should be since it’s the best of 11 dancers selected to be on the show.  If you don’t know by now who’s in the finale you’ve missed a great [...]

mom gone quiet

I recently wrote about Husband and I taking separate vacations each visiting our families flying it solo with the kids.  The payoff is that we each have time alone, the cost is that we continue to delay taking a vacation together (which we sorely need).  I had my vacation with the boys in July .  [...]
