Idle Me Part Three

Yet another day of idleness. It is driving me nuts. Nuts!

I spent the afternoon pouring through cookbooks, which is torture because I can't really eat anything, and after finding some unique recipes, spent the rest of the afternoon cooking and baking. I must say that I was successful in finding some great new recipes. My new personal favorite is a new take on a traditional favorite, Banana Bread with Crystallized Ginger and Dark Chocolate Chunks. Heaven. It was so good in fact that I made some loaves for Sarah, Sylvie, and Ian. The recipe is a keeper for sure! Thank you Molly Wizenberg, you goddess of the kitchen you (for those of you who don't know...Molly is my favorite food blogger @ http://orangette.blogspot.com/ She is also the co-owner of Delancey, the best pizza in Seattle).

While I was waiting for things to cook I also re-arranged my living room. I just recently acquired two new Ork posters, Portland and Seattle. If you are not familiar here is the link (http://www.orkposters.com/). I love them and they are perfect in my cute little place.

So I guess today wasn't a complete wash. I did start my day with an amazing breakfast at Wild Mountain with Angie and Jason, Bekar's and Jon (yep 5th wheel). That place alone would make me happy all day long and even though I didn't go on a run or a bike ride...today was kind of nice.
