Basil

I simply love my basil plant. It is pretty in my kitchen, it smells good, it tastes good, and it won't die if I forget to water it for a few days. It's funny how a little plant can make my day just that much better. Next step, getting a cute little pot to plant it in.

Frianche and Method Gun

This week Pasha scored comp tickets to see the widely acclaimed and talked about "Method Gun" and since the tickets were comped we thought it would be appropriate to use our groupon to Frianche for some yummy pre-show grub. Yummy does not do this food justice. Just a few examples, my drink had actual lavender in it and our mango panna cotta had pop rocks on top. Needless to say, I am stealing both of these recipes.


Method Gun was also pleasantly surprising. One, because I started out skeptical and was completely won over by the end of the show. And two, the end was visually and mentally remarkable. If you make it through, you will definitely walk out with a smile on your face. If you have a chance, get into one of the last showings this weekend.

Keeping it Simple

What is better than a chocolate chip cookie? Maybe a salted caramel chocolate chip cookie. It is pretty much the exact same thing with a little salted punch. Tasty.


Oh, and that one that is missing in the top row, don't tell Pasha, but I already ate it.

Sweet Treat

I have recently fallen in love with making doughnuts for breakfast on Saturday. I think everyone deserves a little treat after a week full of work, and what better sweet treat than a homemade doughnut.
