AAAnnnddd We're back

Well it is official summer (break) is over! So lets head back into the kitchen. I have changed the rules (because of whining... and not just from one of you, but several), so this is the new plan - let me know what you think. We will continue to pick recipes each week, taking turns as usual only this time only the person whose turn it is to choose has to cook. The person that chooses has to tell what she is cooking next in case the rest of us want to cook along. Also, the rule will stand that we all cook out of the Baking from My Home to Yours cookbook unless you want to post a new recipe on the blog. Haute is the first to pick and she has selected the Double Apple Bundt Cake on page 184, she will bake this cake and report back by Sunday October 27th. I hope everyone had a great summer break. The hubs and I headed to Northern California over the Labor Day weekend. Had such a great time, I am going back! More on that later....

Taylor is helping me with this program. Soo, here is a pic from this summer in Italia! It was truly wonderful.


Last week I got to go see Reagen and help him settle in. Whenever parents are in town and picking up the tab we always seem to find takers for dinner :) This was Reagen with Kathryn Timmerman and his roommate at the SAE house, Chad. Georgia was beautiful and rainy, Reagen seems excited and fired up about sophomore year!



T-Bear was in town and we decided to cook out of the cookbook she brought me back from London. We stumbled across a Swiss Chard and Artichoke Feta Cheese Pie, it was Delish! Served with a Couscous cranberry salad. Everyone went back for seconds, the trickiest part of the evening was converting all the measurements in the recipes and after a while we "winged it."
