Last week, it was pointed out to me that among the 750 recipes in the archives , there is but a single recipe that utilizes broccoli . Just one! (It’s a great one , though.) For comparison, there are 11 recipes that use cauliflower and 26 with mushrooms . What terrible oversight could have led to this? http://smittenkitchen.com/blog/2012/06/broccoli-parmesan-fritters/

one-pan dark chocolate chunk skillet cookie

For some reason, I was craving this on Saturday. Nothing else would do. All I wanted was a warm, gooey, chocolate chip cookie, straight out of an iron skillet.

http://www.shescribes.com/2011/04/turkey-reuben-with-thousand-island-coleslaw.html I LOVE Reuben sandwiches. My mom turned me on to them many years ago when I was a young girl. She used to order them from the deli whenever we stopped to get a sandwich.

Stephanies Kitchen – Snickerdoodle Cupcakes w/Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting

http://www.stephanieskitchen.com/2011/03/snickerdoodle-cupcakes-wcinnamon-cream-cheese-frosting/ My kids have been running around the house like chickens with their heads cut off. Tornados really. I don’t know if it is because we got our usual winter snowstorm in early spring, or if they are just tired of being in the house. Maybe a combination of both. Maybe because they are anxiously awaiting their very first trip to Disneyland that is just around the corner.
I didn’t want to have to be the one to tell you this, but March has almost come to a close. You know what’s next? We’re going to steamroll through April, freak out through May, scream through summer, then Christmas music starts.
