a pail of peppers

It was a lazy afternoon. I’d been skimming through the September issue of Sunset Magazine and noticed a recipe for stuffed peppers. And while Peter Piper picked a pail of pickled peppers, I didn’t. I’m not quite sure how you pick already pickled peppers, but it sure works for the alliteration in the little nursery rhyme, right?

tonight: tomato and olive pizza

I don’t do raw tomatoes! Sounds weird, right? Roast them, toast them, throw some balsamic or lemon juice and herbs on them and I’m good. Just don’t hand one to me expecting it to be eaten whole and untouched.

tonight: farmer’s market nicoise salad
