Ever have one of those days where you just are feelin' "mehhhhhhh" and just want to burrow back into the pillows and head back to dreamland?  Well, that was me today.  Between the travel, constantly refereeing the furballs, the incessantly ever growing to-do list and lots of other things that are snappin' at my stilettos, I just wanted to pull the covers over my head and hide. However, I knew that I had plans to attempt baking in stilettos again – this time with the Barefoot Contessa's … [Read more...]

Chinese Chicken Salad

One of the April recipes to try for the Barefoot Bloggers  was the Barefoot Contessa's Chinese Chicken Salad.  I know I know - it's the end of the month but it is done.  I am regaining my cooking mojo and, thankfully, this recipe made me think quick on my feet. I've noticed with the Food Network, sometimes it's like recipe roulette  when they post the recipes.  As I was using my blackberry for cooking instructions, I didn't have the ability to check the comments.  What I can say is … [Read more...]
