I almost flipped the whole damn table over on Friday night. James suggested that we do a date-night dinner this past weekend at our favorite little Turkish hole-in-the-wall and I was all about it. Partially because I am absolutely obsessed with the food there– the creamy hummus, the crispy falafel, the warm pita bread, the butter-soft grilled meats, the…
Greek Avocado Salad with Garlic-Dill Vinaigrette
How many more times do you think I’m going to bundle up in my puffiest ski jacket before taking a step outside and realizing that the sinisterly frigid season is decidedly over– not just “it’s technically spring” over, but “I can go to the grocery store with a t-shirt on and survive strolling through the refrigerated section” over?
