One of my recent projects around the house - an herb garden! I must confess I cheated and had to buy the starter plants at the local nursery - I've tried growing them from seeds before and it did not go well. But so far they are doing great and I love being able to cook with them whenever I need them.

After a busy Saturday getting ready for our upcoming vacation and my Dad's birthday party which we are hosting tomorrow, my husband and I were able to slow down and enjoy one of the best parts of warm weather - dinner on the grill. Tonights recipe : a Turkish style kabob. Chicken marinated in a spicy smoked paprika and Greek yogurt with lemon marinade, and then grilled. Sooooo yummy!

I love to bake, which I know I have mentioned before, but I also love to cook. I'm one of those cooks that does better when I have a recipe to go off of. I might deviate or improvise a little bit, but I usually stick pretty close to the recipe and thankfully am pretty good at following directions. So if the recipe is good, the meal is usually good. Tonight I spent my evening trying out of a new recipe for tomorrow night's dinner. The recipe was a play off of a traditional recipe - eggplant parmesan. The twist was that instead of fried breaded eggplant, the sliced eggplant was broiled and then wrapped around a filling that contains ricotta, parmesan, and swiss chard. The coolest part of the recipe? The amazing colors of the swiss chard! Such pretty colors, I had to snap a photo. And by the way.... the recipe was fantastic! Although nothing tops a classic....
