j'adore la cuisine

this week has been delicious. dee-lish-cious.

i am continually inspired by julie & julia. thus far this week has included - cheese soufflé w. salad, and eggplant parmesan w. bread & bruschetta. tonight (actually this morning) i also made mango, peach & pineapple salsa which i'm hoping tastes as good as it looks and smells. 

since my descriptions utterly cannot do justice to these works of art here are some pictures for you to drool over...

see what i mean? it has been a good week so far. right now i'm winding down with some ingrid michaelson, and grinning over my culinary achievements. a wave of exhaustion is creeping over me and seeing the time i'm off to join my husband in bed.

i leave you with a picture of my desk which has been brightened up this week with a couple of gorgeous roses. this is quite possibly my favorite little corner of my desk. it holds photos of some of my favorite people, which sit directly in front of some of my favorite books. how could you get a better addition than orange roses? 

sleep tight sugar plums!
