i don't watch that many shows, i really don't
so why is it that four of the ones that i like have to be at the same time, on Monday nights? I guess the world is trying to encourage me to give up the guilty pleasure of Gossip Girl. Meh!
it's a good couple of weeks for cooking, thanks in part to new cookbooks, and in part to trying really really hard to stay on budget and only go to the grocery store once a week, trying to buy just the things on the list.
last week: lentils and caramelized onions over rice; beef stew; butternut squash latkes with hazelnuts; huevos rancheros; risotto with onions, parmesan, spinach; curry-ish soup with swiss chard, pumpkin and rice
this week: peas and potatoes curry; tomato, basil, mozzarella strata; panini and apple/celery salad... other stuff that we haven't quite gotten around to planning yet and/or leftovers from these meals. i also managed to make muffins that don't suck (mine are usually too dry) by using yogurt, strawberries and blueberries, and pecans. yum!
