Knife Skills

We are proud to announce that all of our fingers are still intact after we took a knife skills class last night. Joe and I were both signed up for this 3 hour long class hosted by the Western Reserve School of Cooking in Hudson. The course was focused on the different uses for various knives, the proper way to hold the knife, and of course chopping, dicing and julienning.

We also made, and subsequently consumed, 4 meals: Chicken Coq au Vin, Thai Chicken and Vegetable Curry (our favorite one), Penne Pasta Primavera with Roasted Garlic Sauce, and Roasted Vegetable Pizza with Goat Cheese. It was a fun, informative and tasty class!

Monday Mourn

We are all feeling a little down today after the Steeler loss last night. At least they made it that far...

So true!

I was at Pottery Barn the other day when I came across the following book:


I took a look at both my own and Joe's names. Mine wasn't anything exciting but Joe's was one I had to share!


Very apt in my opinion!

Celebration

My mom and dad brought over a chocolate ganache cake for Joe's birthday. Here is the birthday boy making his birthday wish.

Happy Birthday Joe!

Today, Joe has joined me at the quarter century mark! Happy Birthday to him!

For the big day, I bought Joe a brand new car!

It just so happened his lease was up and I therefore get to call this a birthday gift from me. Such a generous wife I am!
