I have decided to blog about my passion. Food. I will post about it, what I cook that day, recipes, experiments, pictures, etc.
Aside from my boys, a huge part of my life is food. I LOVE cooking and baking...and eating, of course! I am always up for trying something new, both in the kitchen and at the table. You never know what you might fall in love with, if you aren't open to new things! Take escargot, for example. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it! One of my very favorite things. A snail? You may say...yes, a snail. Try it next time you are at a nice french restaurant. mmmmm.....yum. :)
Although I feel I can be a food snob, there are a few "old favorites" that I will always enjoy eating. Even if it only costs 15 cents. (Ramen noodles) One of my VERY FAVORITE things to eat is cream cheese with salsa and chips. Seriously. I could eat a brick a day. I don't get sick of it. EVER. In fact, today is one of those days. I will be SKIPPING dinner, so that I may eat my days share of calories and fat in cream cheese. It is very comforting to me. If I have a bad day, OR to celebrate, it's cream cheese to the rescue!
I've been out of town this weekend, for a dear friends surprise baby shower, so I feel like I haven't cooked in ages...tomorrow's menu forecast: Mahi Mahi & Risotto. (yes, together) How? That will be determined in the next 24 hours.

Agree 100% about the escargots - you have to go to Cafe Rabelais, they do FANTASTIC escargots.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I am going to make risotto this week as well! No mahi mahi, though, I'm not current enough on groceries.
Last thing: HEB (or at least the one on Bunker Hill, and Central Market) has hatch chiles you can buy, already roasted! Yum.
LOVE THE BLOG :) I love Sourcream mixed with Salsa but never tried Cream Cheese... After my mom's wedding i am sitting down to a movie with a bag of chips and salsa with cream cheese
