Food for Thought (or perhaps the other way around)

This Boy's Life

Doesn't he look so serious? He and Dad were playing last night while I got in a few minutes of sewing. I thought this picture looked like some kind of still from an after school special about kids whose parents don't pay attention to them...

On a Roll with Scones

We've been having scones for breakfast for the last two weeks and they've been DELICIOUS! I hadn't ever made them before and they were much easier than I thought they were going to be. Last week I made so good lemon cream scones, and this week we're having cheesy herbed ones- gruyere and leeks and thyme! I based them on this recipe.
I've had to buy butter more often the last few weeks... we'll see what happens with that...

Quinoa Skillet Bread

I also made the most delicious quinoa skillet bread. I TRIED to follow this recipe, but I wanted to use up some ingredients I had in the house. So, I used buttermilk instead of milk, and full-fat goat milk instead of heavy cream. Still SO GOOD.
Definitely getting more excited about making food with all this chilly air swirling about...
