Tasty!

I really enjoy spending time in the kitchen, though it doesn't happen enough. I thought I'd share with you all (or you 3, whatever) a few of my creations and then some of my favorite food blogs.

A few months back, I made this lovely lentil soup. I didn't follow the recipe exactly, but I think soups always turn out better that way.


To go along with this cold-weather treat, I made this focaccia bread which turned out quite well! I think next time I make the focaccia, I will make it a little thinner and add sun-dried tomatoes. Mmmm...

Here's another soup creation. I'm not sure where the recipe is (and since it's not in gmail, it's probably in one of my amazing cookbooks...our friends gave thoughtful wedding presents :)), but it is some combination of navy beans, pasta and kale (which is MARVELOUS if you didn't know). Hubster helped me with the homemade hummus on top and the bread crustinies that we had with it. The hummus had a bit of a kick to it that melded well with the basic soup.
And I must admit that part of why I like making soup so much is that I get to use the beautiful and functional soup bowls that we received as a wedding present. L-O-V-E love the double handles.
