Crumbs, 8/16

August 16, 2009

It’s Sunday night, and my thoughts automatically turn to meal planning for the week. I sat down with my calendar and looked over the next few weeks, and made an executive decision to put my formal meal planning on hiatus until we get back into a more regular schedule in September. With our scheduled summer activities over and some travel on the horizon, I’m going to play dinner by ear.

I’ll still be cooking and posting, but in the meantime be sure to check out two of my new favorite blogs:

Savory But Sweet, written by a blogger I’ve known for years and years through many different blogs of both hers and mine. Cristen, a self-described cheese addict, writes about eating out and cooking in Queens and the surrounding area, always with good humor.

Follow My Bliss is Jen’s blog, and her site description only partly sums it up: “I eat something sweet every day and I write about it!” Jen is an open, engaging writer whose “bliss” is to one day open her own bakery. She is well on her way, and I love that she is letting her readers in on the journey.

    Hi! I noticed on my wordpress dashboard that you linked to me so I had to pop over to check out your site. Thank you so much for the sweet things you said about my blog. You know my boyfriend, Kevin, right? He mentioned you to me a few weeks ago! Thanks for reading. :)

Moroccan Chicken Tajine: I recently had a chicken tajine dish at Fig & Olive in Scarsdale, and wanted to recreate something similar at home. This is an Ina Garten recipe, and she never fails me.

"Somebody That I Used to Know" by Gotye. I find the xylophone haunting, and the lyrics are poignant. Love this track.
