It's been a while since I've updated this blog! I've finally finished my first year of law school, so now I have time to get back to cooking (or, you know, watching season after season of How I Met Your Mother and playing Call of Duty, but anyway...). I've been out of school for just over a week, and I have yet to cook anything other than pirogies or microwave food. But tomorrow, my family is coming up to have dinner! We
were going to eat in my sun room, but the forecast says it's going to be 49 degrees tomorrow (boo), so the plans to grill burgers and eat them in the sun room are sort of out the window. Instead, we're going to try slow cooking some peachy pulled pork for the main course, with sides of rosemary garlic roasted potatoes and
lemon chive brussels sprouts (the second recipe in the link), and I might make lemon drop cookies for dessert.
If it goes well, I'll post the recipes I used!
Now, off to clean my entire house...
Also, I might try to make a lettuce soup tonight to use up some leftover lettuce...when I lived in France, my host mother used to make it all the time, and I loved it. Unfortunately, she never gave me the recipe, despite my requests for it. So, I grabbed
this recipe, and if I can get myself out of my house to get a potato, I'll make it tonight.
