Mental Health Week

Hey, guys -

There will be very light posting this week, if any at all. Boy and Girl are both at sleepaway camp this week and I'm taking some time for myself. I am going to try to catch up on watching TV shows that I've recorded to DVR; I'm going to clean off my desk and clear out my email InBox. I'm going to read the food magazines that I have stacked around in piles and I'm going to try to even clean out the garage. We'll see how much I actually get accomplished, but the one thing that I will likely not being doing much of this week is cooking. My dishwasher will be happy: I'd made so many spicy Mexican and Middle-Easterny-type things lately that the inside of my dishwasher was starting to smell like cumin, from all of the spicy dishes that were being washed in it. Weird.

Something for you all to think about during my "absence", however:
I am going to start taking "suggestions". If you're looking for a good recipe for a certain dish, shoot me an email or comment and let me know, and I'll post what I've got. Also, please feel free to submit any cooking or ingredient questions. I'll do my best to tackle them. If I get enough, I may even add a cooking FAQ.

Anyway, have a great week and I'll see you all soon.

XO,
Lara
