Yup. Winter.
Cold, damp, snowy winter. And unless you ski (we don't) or snowboard (we tried) or snowshoe (not yet) - the cold days tend to lend themselves to making good, home-cooked comfort foods.
I'm surprised I'm not 700 pounds. Good genes, I suppose.
And on the make this time was a nice, creamy mac n cheese that sticks to your ribs and has left-over qualities that go beyond just finishing off what's in the fridge to save from tossing them!
So, grab some noodles, grab some cheese. And if you're like me - grab some friends to share this wonderful meal with!
Gosh - the first REAL post of the New Year! And it's only taken me 26 days, 20 hours and some-minutes. Whew! I have recipes to share, I really do! It's finding the time to share them that's hard to come by!
Winter is upon us here in our small town. Snow is falling here and there, although not nearly as much as last year (thankfully). And we've made it past our cold snap that always arrives in the middle of January. Right when a toboggan party would work GREAT for Biggie Wiggie on her birthday.
And so, huddled by the fire, we're on the downhill slide into what one would call spring. If only!! Because once the snow starts to melt and making a left hand turn is easy (if you've ever seen the snow plowed into the middle of the road first thing in the morning you'll know what I mean) we always get one.last.dump.
Mr. Hungry and I love to share a treat when the kids go to bed. No, not THAT kind of treat. A snack. One that tastes great and it easy to make while sugar plums dance in the wee one's minds. And this time, we decided that some prawns would be good!
