Chana Masala

Ashley and I survived a trip to IKEA over the weekend.  And survived is not an exaggeration.  We made it through the entire store without getting into an argument.  I think we deserve a medal.  I don’t know what it is about that place, but we somehow usually end up in a squabble – minorContinue Reading

Roasted Cauliflower with Rosemary and Garlic

How was your day?  In our house, today was one of those really relaxing Sundays. There were no plans made, no schedules to adhere to, just the flow of the day.   I spent my morning at the gym, made a quick stop by PCC on the way home, and then spent most of the  afternoonContinue Reading

Beet Salad with Leeks and Parsley

I recently became a volunteer assistant for PCC Cooks.  PCC Natural Markets is an amazing co-op here in Seattle and they have their own cooking classes.  Assistants volunteer their time doing prep work for the chefs and cleaning and in return they get the information from the class for free.  It’s a pretty good dealContinue Reading
