Pesto

So I made a pesto the other day... if by pesto, I mean throw a bunch of stuff in the blender and hope for the best... so I had some curly kale...threw that in. had some curly parsley...threw than in. had a small amount of basil (but enough)...threw that in. no pine nuts, but there were some walnuts in the freezer...why not! threw that in. garlic, salt, olive oil, parmesan it actually turned out pretty good. we've had it a few times now on pasta - i think for the last bit of it, i'm going to make some pizza dough and put it on that. yum! (but don't tell Steve or the kids) ;)

Catching Up

Realized it's been almost a month since I posted here...but the main things going on are things I don't blog about here, so I'm not left with much else to say :) Um...the girls had a trophy festival for violin, and did great jobs. W won a scholarship for Suzuki camp (yay!) Spring break was fun and relaxing. I made a flourless chocolate hazlenut cake, topped with whipped cream and hazlenut pralines (book club) Then I made a strawberry orange shortcake tart (book club) And...that's it. :)
