This looks so easy! I love that it's a small quantity, too. How often do you need 2 cups of salad dressing all at once? This Rivals Ranch: Two-Minute, Creamy Salad Dressing | Apartment Therapy The Kitchn |

I've made lots of pasta casseroles, but I never thought to throw in whatever I have in the pantry. Great idea! Will try soon. Clearing the Pantry? Make a Free-Form Pasta Casserole | Apartment Therapy The Kitchn |

My hubby and I argue about the same thing! In the end, I confess that I only un-plug those items that are easy ~ the ones that are easy to reach and that have plugs that don't fit so snugly that it takes a lot of effort to remove.

On really cold days I love the idea of having a pot of something great simmering in the corner. Plus, even just the smell of something cooking seems to warm me up. A recent slow-cooker favorite is this black bean soup: http://appetiteforconversation.blogspot.com/2010/02/dark-and-mysterious.html.

My favorite thing to roast is broccoli, which I do almost weekly. I throw it on a pan with olive oil and salt, then roast at 400 for about 12 minutes. I vary how I season it, but my favorite way is to next sprinkle it with parmesan cheese and roast another 5 or so minutes. The parmesan melts and browns on top of and all around the broccoli. Then I scrape all the yummy cheese from the bottom of the pan as I pour it into a serving dish. The result is both salty and nutty. Yum!

I find that tortillas are almost interchangeable with sandwich bread. You might just use them for a week of lunches.

I like cashews on top of my favorite curried soup. (http://appetiteforconversation.blogspot.com/2009/11/different-take-on-pumpkin.html) I bet pine nuts would taste good on a lot of soups too. Crispy, Crunchy, Chewy: 6 Unusual Garnishes for Soup | Apartment Therapy The Kitchn |

I want to try making veggie burgers. I've had some exceptional ones at restaurants, so I wonder if I can create something great at home. I think I'll start by trying one of Mark Bittman's recipes for nut burgers or bean burgers at http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9D04E4D6123EF936A25751C0A9609C8B63.

My most interesting (and simple!) dish was campanelle with chestnut cream, but another good one was a sour cream coffee cake for the teachers at my toddler's school.

I live in Northern California and my town manages to have a farmer's market twice a week year-round. So even though the sky frequently looks dreary, we still get bright, colorful, farm-fresh produce.
