Not cooking much these days

I had visions of posting food blog pics and recipes on a weekly basis. But it seems I am not cooking as much as I thought. I knew I would cook less since it's just for me, but I'm really cooking less, like once a week. I need to get on top of taking pics that one time I do cook. Like this weekend, I made an amazing eggplant pomodoro dish. So good. But, sadly, no pics.

I like food blogging. I'll get better.

Happy Birthday

A very special Happy Birthday to The Boy! I hope it was everything you had hoped it would be and so much more. I am very proud of you. I look forward to watching you turn into an amazing young man.
