Well, I looked around the kitchen and had three ingredients, but didn’t know what I wanted to make:  1) Chicken breast, 2) Asparagus, 3) Prosciutto.

My original thought for dinner was to marinate the chicken in something and then grill them, then wrap the asparagus in the prosciutto and grille that… then make some potato dish.

A couple of months ago, I was over our friend Mary I’s house and we were talking about, of all things, food! I mentioned how I made gnocchi with the kids and we had a great time doing it as a family… and Mary thought “ooh, let’s have a get together and make gnocchi”. Well, we did it and it was an absolute success!

I was backing out of our driveway to bring the kids to school and I actually stopped, got out, grabbed my camera and took this shot… it was too cool to miss…

I think I missed this – unless it’s a new feature to Snow Leopard – I just never noticed this little icon before:

I want my babyback, babyback, babyback… ribs

I made ribs this week – they were so yummy!  Best part was the leftovers – let me tell you.

To start, I took babyback ribs (pork) and hit them with a rub.  I wrapped them in foil and stuck them in a bar-b-que stand thingy (do you like my technical lingo?).
