typing this post one handed while the baby is nursing...

so i gave up on the resolution thing for june and the first part of july, but i'm back in the saddle now. last week i made spinach soup and drop buttermilk biscuits for dinner one night. both from sample cooking mags i got in the mail, both turned out really well. the biscuits were fluffy, not flaky like the rolled kind, which was an entirely different experience for me.

one of the cooking mags was cook's illustrated, which i've now signed up to receive. mom has a subscription and says it's really good.

next few recipes on deck: garlic bread soup, turkey breast with bacon and fresh sage, and chicken soup with dumplings. stay tuned

happy birthday beatrix potter

okay, so i'm a little brain dead from sleep deprevation and nursing all the live long day, and i don't even have the energy to be very witty or profound or to spell check this post. but today is beatrix potter's birthday and i heard this quote from her this morning on the writer's almanac and just had to share it with you:

"Believe there is a great power silently working all things for good, behave yourself, and never mind the rest."
