It's been a while since I posted. Two big food holidays have passed and much food has been made.
There were carrot cake cupcakes...
There was a cake for Thanksgiving...
And some mini holiday fruit pies...
As well as a "College" Thanksgiving...
...and two pre-Christmas dinners with friends...
One of my roommates gave me a HUGE Martha Stewart Cookbook for Christmas, and Christmas Eve Dinner consisted of her glazed carrots and striped sea bass...I still have to upload those...
At first I was unsure how much I could really use Martha's book because a lot of recipes seemed unapproachable, but now that I have tried two of them...Glazed Carrots with Whole Spices and Rosemary:
and Roasted Sea Bass:
The carrots are definitely going to be repeated, and the Sea Bass was pretty good too - although the fennel and white wine did little to add to the flavor. I think the cookbook is just right of amount of challenge to help me learn new things.
I have said before how I am a fan of going to company websites to find recipes... well while we were snowed in last weekend we made white chocolate chip macadamia nut cookies with the ghiradelli recipe and they were delicious...
