It is SO good...

...to have friends, at work, who will pig out on pizza with you at lunch. Feast your eyes on my gal pals...and Steve (He pretended he was embarrassed to be there, but we know he secretly loved it...After all, how many guys can say that they got to go out for all-you-can-eat pizza with a bajillion gorgeous ladies?)

Platter Lickin' Good

A couple of months ago my roomies and I instituted a monthly "Roomate Dinner" to take place one Sunday each month. This past Sunday was my turn to cook said dinner. What a perfect opportunity, I said to myself, to try out a new recipe. Luckily, I have two roomates who are ready and willing guinea pigs. Happy surprise--the experiment was a big success!

Katie not only ate all of her Smokey Almond Chicken, but she finished the extra piece as well--right out of the casserole dish!

...and like Jack Sprat and his cuddly wife, she licked the platter clean so as not to let any of the BBQ goodness or smokey almond deliciousness go to waste!

I don't know why, maybe it's the nurturer in me, but it just warms the cockles of my lil' heart when people like my cooking.

By the way, Kate, you've got a little something...right...there...
