mmmm mmm

So.... I love to cook.  I simply love food.  It's funny because I'm kinda like a garbage disposal [in my mind] but at the same time I eat pretty healthy.  AND yes, I splurge - especially at the time being because I seem to find myself bribing my daughter to use the potty.  Just last night I asked Emry if she wanted ice cream and our conversation went as follows...

Me: Emry do you want ice cream?
Emry: MMMM  HMMM I WANT CREAM CONE!
Me: [laughing] well you have to use the potty before we go
Emry:  Okay mom! (runs to potty)
Emry:  I went potty mom
Me: [walks over] OOOO you did!  Good job babe.
Emry: I WANT CREAM CONE!
Me: [laughs] okay, go put on your shoes.
Emry: okay mom!  Cream cone.

I'll take whatever I can get when it comes to her using the potty - she is an ornery one! 

Anyways, back to food.  I've been checking out some new recipes and it probably doesn't help that I'm extremely hungry at the moment but I thought I'd share.  Two I have made before - but they were AWESOME and I mean RIDICULOUSLY AWESOME. 

Top to bottom :  Quesadilla de Camornes, Corn Chowder with Chilies, Pork Loin Chop with Cranberry Chutney, and Fig-Prosciutto Pizza with Arugula.

 



Don't these all look delicious?!  MMMM MMMM I think so!
