Summer Vacation

August 25, 2010

090115chinesecarton Summer VacationI am on a mini staycation for a couple of days this week — the boys have gone to their grandparents and I am truly soaking in every bit of silence in my house.

I did manage a batch of Sweet Potato & Black Bean Burritos, but I am otherwise not doing much cooking over this week and next, since our schedule is packed with end-of-summer parties and cramming in day trips before school starts again on September 7.

I’ll be updating Chick in the Kitchen with my farm share pickups this week and next, but otherwise I won’t be back here until September 5, when I post my back-to-school meal plan for the week. That post will include our Rosh Hashanah dinner plans, too — I’m excited to try some new recipes this year.

Make sure to follow me on Twitter for quick updates between now and then.

Want to Try

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.
