I’ve seen so many pictures of beautiful Indian flatbread, or naan, on various blogs over the past few months. It just looked so good that I knew I had to give it a try. So, when I chose World Cuisines as this month’s Kitchen Bootcamp Challenge, I decided that I’d finally give the naan a…

It’s Friday already, and it has been a whole week since I had my hand surgery! I am happy to announce that I am doing very well… Thank you all for your concern and well wishes! My fingers have been freed from “the claw” (the name my husband and I fondly named my giant bandage), and, though I have to be careful, I am getting back to my normal activities… Most importantly, I can now type two-handed again!
I will be getting back into the kitchen soon (I hope), which means there will be more new recipes to come next week. In the meantime, though, let’s take a look at some of the fantastic blog posts I came across this week!

Last year, I asked my husband what he would like me to make him for dinner for his birthday. He replied, “Tater Tots.” At first I thought he was joking… Nope, he was serious. My husband is a good sport and will try just about anything that I cook at least once. I rarely make…

As I mentioned in my previous post, last night I made breakfast for dinner. To accompany my ham and asparagus frittata, I made some whole wheat cinnamon rolls. These cinnamon rolls are also adapted from a recipe from my Cooking Light cookbook. The first time I made the rolls, I followed the recipe as it…

I love fish and chips… and I have been craving it for a while now. So, last week, I decided to make some baked fish and chips. Instead of frying everything, I breaded and baked the fish and made some oven fries to serve with it. Both the fish and the fries turned out wonderfully –…

I originally wrote this post last evening, trying to sneak it in in the few minutes before it turned to Saturday. However, my site went down right as I went to publish it. That will teach me to leave my Friday Favorites to the last minute! For the second week in a row, I am…
