Dijon Chicken Club Sandwiches
By the time I get home from work, I often don't feel like cooking a big meal. But if I've done some of the prep work in advance, it becomes really easy. This is pretty much my weekday plan. If I didn't do this, we would end up eating out a lot more often, or making frozen pizzas. When ever I grill chicken, I make a couple extra pieces so that I have leftovers for salads or sandwiches during the week. If I'm making a meat sauce for pasta, I like to double the meat and put half of it away to make a pizza or tacos later in the week.

Beer Battered Onion Rings
One day, months ago, after Ben and I were watching a show on the Food Network about fried foods, Ben had asked me to recreate the beer battered onion rings that were featured. Knowing I’m not one to frequently bust out a vat of oil to “waste” on frying, I quickly filed his request in the very back of my mind. No, seriously, the very back shelf of my brain that is probably full of dust and other undesirable recipe requests. Onion rings have never been one of my favorite foods. The only time I’ve ever had them was when someone else ordered them at a restaurant and shared one or two with me.

Before I start telling you a little about these cookies, doesn’t the photo above just make you want to drool. I mean what is better than chocolate cookies and a big glass of milk?

Blueberry Crumb Bars with Rosemary Crust
I grew up listening to my mom's old records (and cassette tapes) of Jacques Brel, The Mamas & The Papas, Françoise Hardy, and Simon & Garfunkel - maybe a little Neil Diamond too. Each song felt like a secret treasure to my young, eager, ears. At the wise age of six I was utterly mesmerized by Françoise's clear, sometimes melancholy, voice, and lush lyrics. "Dream a Little Dream of Me," as sung by Mama Cass, was pure perfection- oh, how I wanted to know what it felt like to be so much in love that I'd ask someone to keep me in their dreams (and what do birds sound like when they sing in sycamore trees?). "Ne Me Quitte Pas" was deliciously heart wrenching (although the more recent version by Emilíana Torrini is equally haunting).
