Some cool things...

Ziplist.  It's a new way to save recipes you find online all in one place.  It doesn't matter where you find it from either, just enter the info into the recipe clipper and voila, its in your online recipe book.  If you find as many recipes as I do on various blogs, this is very handy.

Pinterest.  I've been hearing about this quite a bit lately.  It's the hot new sharing website these days.  Too bad I'm only on the waitlist still, but hopefully I'll be able to sign up soon.  It MUST be popular, or they're doing background checks or something... ;)

Seattle Restaurant Week.  It's several days where top end restaurants in Seattle have 3 course meals for 28$/person.  Considering its usually 50, it's quite a deal.  Hubs and I will be trying out Ray's Cafe in a couple weeks.  If you're a fellow Seattelite, you might wanna check it out.

Giada.  Seriously, I love this lady.  Her cooking show is just my style.  She's talented, italian, quirky, and yet so down to earth.  Except her house.  Seriously, this lady has it all.  Even an adorable baby and perhaps a SAH Husband?  He never seems to work that is . . . she makes bank.  If you like cooking italian with a twist, you've gotta check out her shows.  Sometimes, they have full shows available on hulu too.

Things I've made lately:  Roasted corn with lime/parm, Edamame stir-fry noodle (I didn't use chicken (veggie hubby) and added mushrooms), basil pesto (substituted edamame for nuts, you should try it tonya), and thyme biscuits (didn't do the thyme this time, running low on fresh, but I'm sure its good).

Hope everyone enjoyed their weekend.  We sure did.  Today we went to our Patriots bar and watched the game.  We beat the Jets, it was epic.  Next weekend I'll be heading out to visit relatives, especially the two newest ones, Luci and Dru. See the newborn pics here.
