Oh wonderful friends,
it’s been A WHIRLWIND of a 7 months…. since my last post, we bought a house! (with an AMAZING kitchen with FANTASTIC natural light but kind of icky-green formica countertops), I became a mostly one-woman show at work (last year I was part of a fantastic duo), I joined a fun cookbook-club to make some new friends and do some collective cooking, AND, best of all….
We’re expecting a baby boy in just over 2 months!
Obviously our little guy arrives pretty soon, (!!) so things are only going to get crazier, but I WILL NOT be as bad as I’ve been since July. It’s not like I’ve not been cooking and eating ALL the time (one look at my enormous, basketball-shaped baby-bump will tell you that I’ve not missed a meal in nearly 6 months.)
I promise I’ve taken SO many photos and had the most serious intentions to blog about some super amazing cornbread that stays moist for days, a new black-eyed pea and greens New Year’s Day soup recipe, and a chocolate-bourbon-pecan pie that was TO DIE FOR, but the time to sit down and post about them never materialized. I’ve got some time this week, though, so look-out mess of greens readers! I’ve also got big plans this year to try out a kale and turnip green cashew salad that I read about in Bon-appetit, and to learn more about cooking wild game…
