In the Email

I get daily email recipes from a certain popular website. I found this suggested recipe particularly entertaining. Maybe I only know really anal and healthy vegetarians, but Captain Crunch? And the sausage?

Worth It?

Worth It?

Noel and I love cooking. Anytime we eat something good at a restaurant we try to find a way to replicate it, and often come to enjoy our version even more – plus our way is generally cheaper. I am now ruined on Cafe Rio salads, store bought bread, packaged tortillas, and Olive Garden’s Zuppa Toscana. There are however some things that I believe are 100% worth paying for.

Grazing

Grazing

In my kitchen I have a box of these: and a pile of these: What disturbs me is how often I have chosen in my mindless moments of grazing, to eat the former instead of the latter. I’m ashamed to admit, I’ve eaten nearly an entire box of the peeps myself. Then I ran into this article the other day, and now it all makes sense.

Matthias visited from Germany and we had a roommate reunion from 2002-2003. And Danielle ran the Top of Utah Marathon. Click on the pictures to see more about each.

The Best Thing Since Sliced Bread

The Best Thing Since Sliced Bread

This is probably the most exciting thing to happen to me since seeing a woman in Park City pushing a cat in a stroller. Anyway, I’ve been itching to make really good artisan-type bread for a while now. Problem is you have to have hours of free time to mix it, knead it, let it rise, knead it again, etc. I’m afraid to say I don’t have that kind of time available, and if I did, I don’t have that…

Have your cake and eat it too

Have your cake and eat it too

Since we passed the one year milestone on our matrimonial bliss we had the opportunity to follow the tradition of eating the top of our wedding cake. Granted we had heard many horror stories about how bad wedding cake can be after a whole year. However, due to the excellent packing and freezing abilities of Wayne McConkie ours was as good as the day it came out of the oven.
