on cooking
the other day i was in a bookstore and i snatched up the above Donna Hay - Instant Cook cookbook. the images are divine, the recipes easy but seem flavorful. here's more images from the book
i like to cook "big meals", but often falter on the day to day cooking. i am hoping that this book will help me out a bit.
but really, i am so lucky. my husband loves to cook. he cooks all weekend long. breakfasts and dinners. it's so wonderful. i feel totally spoiled - he marches out of the kitchen and hands me giant plates of food. he's always trying new recipes and recreating old favorites.... here's what he made for breakfast yesterday!
build your own breakfast burrito....
so... in a very few minutes i'll be picking up lisa and wilfredo. we are meeting to talk about our show this summer together [so excited about this !!] lisa just turned 40 and i have her present for her :)
tonka would like to thank all you [lovely ladies is what he's calling you] for all the well wishes. he's doing much better and isn't giving me the i'm in an e-collar death stare....
and i have 2 studio visits this week. yikes. lots going on..... more on all of this shortly....
happy monday

donna hay is my food / styling / cookbook-heroine! i so adore her books. i have cooking for guests (don't know the english title) from her; that book is so beautiful it almost hurts.
sending you energy for your studio visits next week !!
cheers from anne.
That breakfast looks amazing. A husband who cooks...you two wouldn't be interesting in adopting (me) would you? hehe.
have fun with lisa & wilfredo. can't wait to see what you two cook up for your show!
xoxo
What an incredible breakfast! Mmm
happy cooking and eating
my key for cooking during the week is easy. do you eat meat? i am working on writing up a recipe for a yummy asian style stir fry i make with chicken and bok choy (although it would probably work with tofu too). julia has inspired me to try and write up some of the recipes i've made up myself. the challenge for the stir fry is writing up the sauce...
that cooks
is a very
very good thing
but does
that mean
we have to clean?
off to check
out the cookbook,
perhaps
grub
will cook
something out
of it for me?

i have this one too, your breakfast looks amazing, hope the studio visit was wonderful...
i love that you have a culinary phenom in residence. aaron might be an official chef boyardee, but with the late nights and long hours, i find it reeaallly hard not to be jealous of his well-fed customers. :)
have fun with lisa, and give tonka's cone-wearing head a smooch for me!
And a joint show with lisa!!!its good to be busy with good stuff :) xx
