Plant herbs in my new Wooly Pockets!!!

Make bread for the inlaws' bbq

Study for Monday's Cooking Final, which will include reading. It may or may not also include roasting a chicken, braising beef or pork, making Hollandaise, reduction sauce, possibly pie crust, a quiche and vinaigrette. I'm exhausted and full already.

There, now that it's out there in the world, I have to do it

With a little leftover pie crust, I had to make something! So I improvised and threw together a little rustic berry galette. It was delicious. I really probably should have had dinner first, but oh well.
Also shown is a Sazerac (in the juice glass) and the simple syrup I whooped up because I needed it to make said Sazerac. Yum.



I took a Bean Workshop class over the weekend, wherein I made Black Beans, Arroz Blanco and Fried Plantains. Pretty easy, really. The best thing about this dish is that it's like having a meal and dessert at the same time.

Heirloom Tomato Pot Pie

Thanks Rachel Going, for a great recipe! My coworkers even loved it! And I got to practice my pie crust-making skills.
