That's right, I said it. I like household stuff. Cooking, cleaning, making my bed every morning, keeping things in tip top shape. Nesting, you might call it.
I especially love cooking dinner for, and with, someone other than myself. A delicious meal is so much more satisfying when shared, don't you think? But, like most of you out there, cooking every single night (and something healthful, for that matter) is next to impossible for me unless I plan ahead.
This I've been practicing for quite a while now, and so far I've been able to consistently cook 5-6 nights of the week. One night is usually reserved for trying a new restaurant, and one might be leftovers or dinner with family. Along my path to becoming a domestic goddess (of sorts) I've picked up a few tricks here and there that I think will be useful for you too. That's why, in this month's column, I divulge what I've learned from experience, mistakes, friends, and family advice that has helped tremendously... And helped put delicious, healthy meals on our table almost every night. Check it out here!
All of that being said, far too much time has passed since I've shared with you one of our everyday recipes. Thus, please don't expect as long of an absence this time around. Haven't I just declared that meals are meant to be shared? You'll see much more of me in the coming days, weeks and months, rest assured. In the meantime, you can find the delicious Autumn Medley Salad (pictured above), with fresh figs and pears, here. Enjoy!
