Crock Pot Cooking

Since I joined the 9-5 workforce, I have become a big fan of my crock pot. I can prep ingredients the night before, then combine them in the pot and turn it on to cook all day on low while I'm at work. By the time I walk in the door, the apartment smells great and dinner is ready. LearnVest Blog has a good post on making the most of your crock pot.

Absent Lately

Sounds like this soup might be dinner for tomorrow - gotta love the idea of kale in minestrone!
Haven't been posting lately, it's just hard to cook anything worth photoing when you work 9-5, I don't know how people with kids do it!? If I make the soup, I'll be sure to snap some shots :) Oh, and Happy New Year!

Fat Toad Farm

Oh, how I miss the food in Vermont! While I love living in DC, and I greatly appreciate having both a Whole Foods and a Trader Joe's nearby, I do miss some of the local products Vermont had to offer. Maple syrup that simply cannot be beat, and the cheese... 
Fat Toad Farms flavored chevre spreads were a staple in my diet. I have also heard rave reviews for their caramel sauces, which you can actually order online. Might be worth picking some up, since I love supporting small family-owned businesses like FTF.

Pizza Rolls!

Pizza rolls after the second rise, but before going in the oven.
 I was really hungry, so I had to eat a few before I managed to take a picture...

I Love my Killington Brewfest Glass

It looks good even just filled with juice, doesn't it?
