my first homecooked (& all organic!) boiled dinner is in the oven now...my mom used to cook it when us kids were little; i haven't had a real one in years though. i can't wait to try it! What's Cooking This Weekend? Weekend of March 17-18, 2012 |

oh i will have to make some this weekend - the trader joe's by me stinks, it is always so packed you can't move in the aisles at all. good for them, but they lose me as a customer due to the high volume of people pushing & shoving to get at items. i'll have to give these a whirl with crescent dough though, they look great!

i made something like this for dinner tonight - i cooked boneless skinless chicken thighs, shredded them & then added them to a pot of penne, broccoli (just chucked in the pot straight from the freezer) along with 1/2 cup breadcrumbs & a mix of shredded cheddar & mozzarella cheese....covered it with foil & baked for 45 minutes. it was fantastic, thank you!

i'm going to try the venetian cookies i think - the only problem is...i don't have 3 cookie sheets. i wonder if i can get away with the aluminium ones, although i hate to waste them? Caramel, Marshmallow and Bacon Bark & Pancake Doodles Delicious links for 12.13.2011 |

my mom has worked for poison control in new england for 20-someodd years & i am always amazed, but people will eat the weirdest stuff!...believe me, just because you know it could be toxic, doesn't mean others do & the reminder is always helpful. thanks dana!

i tried making the cheese pumpkin appetizers & am totally frustrated. the only kinds of cold pack cheese in my area does NOT roll smoothly & even frozen, cannot be made into ball shapes - more cheese ends up on my hands than in a ball. they look cute, but the blogger may want to specify a little more what kinds of cheese to use, or not to use, in our case. i'm bummed.

i love grocery shopping as a general rule; i HAVE to shop by myself though, my bf & i learned very quickly that we have different styles of shopping. i like to meander; he likes to have a list & only purchase those things. there is no hovering over a display thinking about what i could cook with that or maybe i should look at this. lol he has since left the shopping to me! the only time i dislike it is at our most local grocery store which is dirty, full of unhelpful employees & costs twice what i could pay by driving across town, including gas. it's very frustrating there.
