So let me start by saying that I LOVED seeing you both!! I am not sure now what I have to look forward to. October seems so far away and forget about Thanksgiving! I had the best weekend cooking and learning from you both. Heather, the pickled shrimp was outstanding!! As was the pineapple cake and the chocolate pudding. (All of which we need to talk about) And Steph, the crab boil was so much fun and yummy.
So back in Colorado tonight I made tortellini with pesto, peas, and spinach. The pesto was a gift from a friend at work so putting it all together was pretty easy. I hate when you go to a restaurant and when you get something with pesto you can hardly taste it. Not my pasta, it was so good. I also made chicken thighs on the grill. Now I know that for you two grill masters this is nothing exciting, but I have never successfully executed chicken on the grill. When Steph was here for a visit she gave me a couple of tips. I got the grill hot, then turned one side to low, seared my chicken and closed the lid. I just sort of turned, moved, let it cook for about 35 min. The skin was crispy and not burned, the chicken was juicy. You guys must have been a good influence. I would have posted pictures, but the lighting was crummy and the pictures did not look appetizing.
For dessert we are having the last of the fudgecicles which I will find the recipe and post about later. I really am going to try and be better about posting.
Finally...Whoever put the tagline at the top of the blog I LOVE IT! So true.
