Well, I know it has been awhile.. but... things have been crazy. After My sweet Todd died.. I just didn't feel creative.. not that I didn't cook.. I did.. I cooked up a storm.. I don't know how I am going to tell you all about the new recipes I have figured out.. but, I am determined that I will.. PLUS... I started a new business! models actors faces agency.. we help get you started and or get you the tools you need.. photos, comp cards, business cards, books ect.... really fun. I love shooting head shots. and I have a partner "Elle" Hannah. (see photo).. she is in real estate and is a marketing and sales specialist. we have a web site: www.modelsactorsfaces.com take a look.. ANYWAY.........................
JULIA CHILDS IS A GENIUS... did you go to the movie??? well to be honest I never read cookbooks.. I look at ones with pretty pictures and figure out how to make the stuff, or find an ingredient or temp to bake.. but never read a cookbook.. I HAVE CHANGED.. after the movie, which was wonderful.. I ran home got on amazon and ordered every book of Julia's I could find.. 5, yep five... and started reading.. still am.. but her book on life in france and the creating of her first cookbook is so wonderful and inspirational and well (heavy sigh)
it has changed my cooking life. all for the better..
I started off with cornish hens.. cut the back bone out and rib cages and splay.. marinate in lemon juice, lemon zest, salt pepper and lots of fresh thyme and POW! fast easy and so moist and tasty.. throw the splayed hens on the grill for 5 minutes per side, just enough to get some grill flavoe and color. then into the oven in a roasting pan skin side up for 15 minutes at 350.. voila fast, fabulous and thanks to Julia... tastes great.. bon appetite
