When all else fails

I retreat to the kitchen! There I can find some piece and quiet and create.

And my family is generally very happy with the outcome! :)

Chicken artichoke pasta

cubed chicken breast, sauteed with garlic

artichoke hearts

pesto

combo of spinach and regular noodles

all mixed together in the pot.

No picture of the finished product, I forgot and was hungry.

I am happy to send this recipe along if you are interested.

The All American Lunch

And the today, I made Whoopie Pies!

OMG! 

So easy.

Sooooo good!!!

As they are for dinner tonight, I split one with my son, you know, to make sure they

were ok! You know! :)

I did sit at the table yesterday, tried and tried and nothing came out.

Then I decided to try a wire wrapping technique to make a necklace,

lusciousness!

Will share that one soon!
