Goat cheese baguettes with lemon chicken.

Two weeks ago or so Zan and I created our own bruschetta. It turned out FAB. It’s not your typical tomato and basil bruschetta. Oh no, ours had goat cheese and caramelized onions. You heard me– GOAT cheese (my favorite) and deliciously sweet caramelized onions (I give myself a big pat on the back for that one). I also added some grilled red, orange, and yellow peppers to some of the bruschetta. To make a long story short Zan is trying the Eat Right For Your Type diet (for health reasons) and there are a lot of restrictions on what he can’t eat. I’ve been trying to get creative, thinking of yummy dishes he can try while still following the diet. This recipe was a hit. We made it again tonight with lemon chicken (chicken marinated in straight up lemon juice) and couldn’t have been more please with the meal. Topped it off with some red wine and 2 episodes of LOST and I say we had a pretty great night.

Spring is here!!

Oh spring, beautiful spring. Not sure if spring is officially here yet, the northeast can be tricky like that, but it sure does feel like spring. I’l take what I can get when I can get it. My mood is so bright and I just feel like dancing in the streets (which sometimes I do, just because).

Here’s a little list of some of my favorite things about spring:
1. Cadbury mini eggs (I’ve already gone through 2 bags)
2. The sun is out until 7:00. Yes, Mr. Sun, please shine down on me.
3. Rolled up jeans and shoes with no socks
4. Flowers on the trees (I spotted some buds yesterday!)
5. Happiness running through my veins
5. SUMMER is just that much closer
Oh summer, you are my favorite. Come soon, please.

Happy St. Patty’s Day!


Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

I just ate a huge handful of green m&m’s. Ok, fine. I lied. I ate the whole bag. YUM! Hope you had a green filled day! And may the luck O the irish be with you. xoxo.
