A trip to New Orleans

For beignets!!!


A trip to World Market for a box mix from Cafe du Monde, at least. :)

Broccoli burrito

I sort of followed these instructions for the burrito. I fried an onion, added red curry and cumin powder, added a can of black beans, cooked everything for a bit, and blitzed it up. Then I spread the black bean puree onto a burrito shell and topped it with steamed broccoli and feta cheese. (Everything is better with feta cheese.) It was good--I give it a thumbs up.

A New Cookbook

African Pineapple Peanut Stew - a recipe from The Moosewood Restaurant Cooks at Home: Fast and Easy Recipes for Any Day. Not very stew like in the end but pretty tasty over brown rice!

A picture a day...

The latest creation - a bath mitt. Ultimately a failure, it started with good intentions. Unfortunately, there are good reasons patterns for bath mitts call for cotton and not for alpaca. Dust mitt?
