Weekend Evaluation: Keeps the Hot side Hot, and the Cold side Cold

Gretchen's Mom was up this weekend, and we went to visit some friends who had a new baby, so it was busy yet again.  But I did cook a couple times, but didn't have any real projects.

Weekend Wrap-Up (July 31- Aug 1)

This weekend was almost like an episode of 'Chopped' at our house. If you're not familiar with the tv show on Food Network, contestants get a basket of random ingredients (typically things you would never think would go together- "here's potatoes, beef, and a chocolate bar!") and they have to make a dish using all the ingredients in 20 or 30 minutes, depending what round it is. We had a bunch of random ingredients in our fridge that Tom wanted to use up, so he spent a lot of time trying to figure out what to make with them.

Weekend Evaluation: An Unfortunate Turn of Events for the Home Team

I wasn't planning on being home to cook that much this weekend.  we were supposed to be out of town at a family party on Saturday.  Well, thanks to some squealing, grinding brakes we were unexpectedly home on Saturday, so I did some cooking but no real projects - and we went out to eat a lot.  Luckily with a bike you can still get to a lot of food.

Maybe I'll include a couple restaurants in the Weekend Evaluation.
