Day314 - I've made better

Sunday, November 9, 2008: My Kitchen: Peach Crostata

Today, Troy and I raked 19 bags of leaves in the backyard. My back hurts and we spent a big chunk of the afternoon napping. I think it is my first nap in months - although waking up stuck to a leather couch is not always awesome.

I made an Apple Crostata a couple of weeks ago (haven't written about that one yet!) that was to die for.

This one was ok, but not great and I'm ok with that. I think it could probably use more peach and no ginger. Ah, what the hell - they all can't be winners.



If I could get points for style, it would be a winner. This recipe made 2 crostatas.

2 peaches - sliced
2 t cinamon
1 t ginger
2 t brown sugar
2 T of chopped walnuts
1 sheet of pre-made pie shell

Mix the first 5 ingredients. Stuff in shell and bake in 350 degree oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Really the easiest thing I know to make.

Day315 - Bangers and Mash

Monday, November 10, 2008: My kitchen: Bangers and Mash

I wanted kielbasie. But our sad kielbasie was sitting in the freezer for 6 months and was beyond freezer burnt.

Instead, we cooked up a couple of Turkey sausages that were in the freezer from something or other I cooked this year. They were hot because we do not like mild here.

Troy brought home some perogies via Jess, via Greg, via OLV (they use sour cream in the potato batter!). It was, ofcourse, super fucking good.

Day188 - I will blow your mind with my cooking awesomeosity

Sunday, July 6, 2008: Troy's parents house: Healthy Cooking

Troy's mom gave me a huge pile of magazine like all women do, and these two are my favorite by far.



Healthy Cooking. I made Troy sit down and pick out all of the stuff he thought he would eat. This was the result. Many flags! We have big plans. So, surprise! Expect some cooking coming up.
