Heirloom Tomatoes

Dscf2605

I was stopped by a woman at the grocery when I was buying these and asked if they were really good, because, let's face it... sometimes they look a little gruesome! I assured her they were delicious and that I try to buy them when I can find them. She bought some and I do hope she enjoyed them as much as I do!
Here's a bit more information on the history of Heirloom Tomatoes.

Sockapalooza Socks Received!

I got my Sockapalooza socks last week! It's been a little crazy around here, so I am just getting to post about them now.

They are from Kris!

She really spoiled me! Check out my haul:

The socks are Blue Moon Fiber Arts Lightweight "Lovers Leap" colorway knit on size 2 DPNs.

I also got knit happens stickie notes, a sock blocker keychain, some lantern moon size 0 dpns and burt's bees lip balm! I am waiting to hear back what the blue tube is. Something tells me it stores DPNs! Great for travel! :)

Thanks Kris! Hope your sockapalooza pal treated you as great as you spoiled me!

Shepherd's Pie

So can you tell I am going back to all my photo archives and posting all the yummy recipes I've made and restaurants that I have been to all year?

This is a Shepherd's Pie that I made in February. It was AMAZING! I know this because I had 2 of my British friends come over for dinner they raved about it.

The recipe is from the March o6 Cook's Country magazine, the sister publication to Cook's Illustrated. Have I professed my love for this magazine yet? It's one of my favorite magazines! The photos are great, no advertisements, full color, easy recipes that are tasty, what more can I ask for?  You can also join the website for $3.95 per month and download all the recipes. They don't have any advertising in their magazines, so that's why they charge for access to the website.
