Roasted Broccoli

I love to roast asparagus, and this reminded me that there are other vegetables worth roasting too. I'm going to try cauliflower and a zucchini/squash/red onion mix too.

Simple and good.

Healthy Deep Dish Cookies

I'm not a fan of Pinterest, but I do love that friends get on there and find good recipes. This one sounded really weird, but I gave it a try. It's actually good. It's not exactly like the flour/egg/butter deep dish cookie I've posted on here, but considering how much more healthy it is, I think it tastes pretty great. The kids and hubs loved it, and this may become our new favorite desert.

Perhaps I'll make it a few more times before deciding that...

Thai Chicken

This really isn't called "Thai Chicken," but the name "Peanut Butter Chicken" sort of eeks me out. So we call it "Thai Chicken."

And it's not even Thai, really. But it was different, and I needed different. So it's a keeper.

Spaghetti and Meatballs

We love regular old spaghetti around here. Nobody ever gets tired of it. The kids and hubs, I mean. I use it as a last minute, quick and easy fall back meal. It's not something I ever really crave.

And so I hate to mess with it too much, but this looked good, so I thought maybe I would try it. I haven't yet, so I can't add my thoughts.

Old Fashioned Potato Soup

This is one of my favorite soups. 

And the girl kid's too.

Simple. And easy, like this post...

It was just a sad, sad day when I found this recipe. A sad day for the jeans in my closet that are too small and think they might see the light of day again soon. So sad for me and for them.

Oh well! I'm happy, and I have other jeans!
