two things

as i was perusing the internet, i found this article and clicked through it. inspiration can come from anywhere! i'm grateful for it as i've been feeling a bit blah about things lately and this gallery got me thinking about new things to cook. always fun, at least for me:)

i learned two things-

#1 - i know what's on my menu this upcoming week- this recipe- anything with goat cheese is a winner! of course i'll alter the ingredients and the sauce and pretty much the entire recipe, but the idea is the same- everything in one pot.

and

#2- i really need to invest in a le creuset enamelled cast iron french oven. specifically this one-


isn't a gorgeous blue?  i love it. i don't love the price tag, but i suppose i should see this as more of an investment. just think of all the yummy things i could concoct in that beautiful blue pot! oh, my mind is whirling and my mouth is watering.

until next post- maggie
