Also known as: a great big pot of family fun awesomeness! (side note: ‘awesomeness’ is no longer rejected by Spellcheck! Apparently it’s a real word now! Hurray!) When my family and I get together, Fajitas are almost always involved. They’re so festive and fun, the kids love them, and they guarantee silence for twenty minutes or […] Read more…

Spaghetti and Falafel Balls

Great weather, […] Read more…
Green Spaghetti!
