unseasonably warm weather. So grilling hamburgers and I've already made the potato salad. Nice spring picnic food!

Roasted cauliflower. New recipe from Cookie and Kate (love her recipes). Turned out well. Served with hard rolls from Trader Joe’s and slices of Honeycrisp apples and sharp cheddar.

I always find recipes I want to make from it.

She's from Kansas City and now is able to support herself entirely with her site and cookbook sales.

She has a carrot cake recipe (no added sugar) that I hope to try soon.

It really is an extraordinary cookbook.

She might be the Mollie Katzen of the 2000s.

I love the pictures of her with her dog. She and that dog are quite the pair. There are quite a few pics of her with the dog in the cookbook.

in terms of diet and cooking. I know I always look at your menus and think I'd like to have that!

One of these days I'm going to photograph my dog-eared pages of Enchanted Broccoli Forest and Moosewood Cookbook and post them. I had to put them in a 3-ring binder. Clunky, but usable.

I have Heart of the Plate as a ebook.

Mom came to visit this afternoon and brought me some groceries because she’s the best. Dad insisted she add two of their favorite frozen pizzas to the bag:
Screamin’ Sicilian Supremus Maximus

I can see why it’s their favorite. OMG, it was good!
Did I mention Dad is also the best?

For dessert: Brownies and frosty cold milk
