Can you come paint my apartment? ;)
Beautiful place, really well done! Thank you for sharing.

I love this so much. Definitely hits home.

I made a vegan version of this last night and it was SO GOOD! And easy-- except for slicing through that dang acorn squash. I roasted the squash and garlic as per directed; heated a small amount of olive oil in a pan and sizzled the fresh rosemary and a generous sprinkle of red pepper flakes, then added the squash, garlic, and a splash of white wine, then about a cup of pasta water (did not use any broth); finally tossed the mixture with the pasta (Lensi casarecce-- good stuff) and some toasted pine nuts. Nom nom nom...

Congrats on the engagement! Talk about a highs and lows.

For those of you with microwaves, I can't recommend the original Bed Buddy enough, a heat pad of sorts which is stuffed with what smells like rice. (Bonus: it can also go in the freezer.) Lately I always have Vick's vapor rub on hand, as well as lots of tea, lemon, and (local) honey. And I try to always keep white rice, crunchy snacks, and seltzer in the house.

MsTiggy, you are not alone! Celery is the one vegetable I truly loathe. Therefore my solution is to simply leave it out.

I've read that you can make tamales in them.

Cat, basil, yellow... I'm sold! :)

So cool!!

Wow!!

The swing comment is hilarious. Recently I was caring for a 5 yr-old boy, who, while on a swing!, claimed, "My wee-wee keeps going up!" How can you NOT laugh about such things?
