Hey All!
Ten Things About Me.
1. Kristen and I have been besties since we were about five.
2. I nagged her to start a blog until she finally started a blog.
3. I nagged her to let me post my recipes on her blog.
4. I'm officially sick of Winter
5. I have a girl crush on Jennifer Lopez
6. When I get hungry, I use Crest whitestrips
7. I keep vodka in my freezer at all times
8. I'm addicted to food blogs
9. I LOVE to take cook and bake
10. I LOVE to take pictures
Phew. That was a load off my mind. With that being said. I am going to throw some recipes and photos up here on Kristen's little blog. I hope you enjoy them.
Today as I was walking through the grocery store, enjoying it thoroughly before I picked my daughter up at school, I came across a beautiful little package of fresh brussel sprouts. Now I know many of you are thinking "Gross". They can be a bit of an acquired taste. But give this recipe a try. Bacon, or pancetta if you're snobby, brown sugar and sprouts are absolutely delicious, fresh and sweet. So good. Now I must go and devour my sprouts and then have to explain to the rest of the family why the house smells like it does.
Enjoy the day!

Lisa this looks great! What great photos too! Yum! My kids love brussel sprouts made this way.
ReplyDeleteYay my first comment. Albeit it's from you. but still...
ReplyDeleteFunny story. My kids love to try new foods. Brussel sprouts were tried in a wonderful glaze, etc. LOL. The next time we are at the grocery store she says, "Don't, don't, don't, don't go near these." A woman asked her why and she said it was because they were so disgusting they could make you throw up (or some other hysterically worded statement of equal or better value.)
ReplyDeleteAlthough I like them with pancetta and maple syrup in place of brown sugar, I agree with my daughter and her sweet tooth: I'd rather eat dessert.-Sharon
