C — Wow, that green chili stew was amazing. Another Martha Stewart recipe to save the day. It was good. Really good. But it needed lime. Too bad I forgot to buy lime. Darn it! Oh well. It might even taste better tomorrow, when all the flavors settle in overnight … Continue reading
C — The root vegetables dish at Thanksgiving was delicious! Even so, we had a lot left over. For some strange reason the green beans were even more of a hit than the root vegetables. I just don’t understand. I guess sometimes the quick and easy dish sells the most. But, … Continue reading
