Over the past few weeks, since the holidays are over, we seem to be spending more time at home, which is a good thing, but has also caused a new TV obsession of sorts in our home...Addison and I watch Food Network all the time! We can't get enough...it's not that we're cooking all the tasty treats we see (we have tried a few), but it's just that we love watching them do it and then Addi and Jake like to "pretend" cook in the living room floor (which means that almost every pot, pan, utensil, etc. that I have in my kitchen has been ending up in the living room floor). Anyway, today I had some friends and their kids over for lunch and Addi was telling them all about her favorite shows...they were obviously expecting Backyardigans, Dora, etc. but instead she said..."Me and Mama love to watch the lady on Food Network with the gray hair...she always says to start with a stick of butter!" So...Giada, Rachel, Paula, and Emeril, you'd better watch out. Addi is well on her way to her own food show and she too believes that you should always start with a stick of butter! :)
By the way, for lunch we had 3 new recipes from Mrs. Deen...we had her white bean chicken chili, her mandarin orange salad with homemade sweet and sour dressing, and blueberry (the picture shows cherries, but the blueberry was really good) cheesecake tarts for dessert...I figured all of that up and we actually only used 2 tablespoons of butter in the whole meal so that's not too bad if you ask me (of course there was a quite a bit of sugar and some cream cheese here and there, but not too much butter!) :)
