The name is stupid, and I feel silly buying it (I’m 24 so it doesn’t look like it is for my kid) but it worked overnight for me. It does dry my skin if I use too much, but I hope it helps if you haven’t already found something that works for you.

I just happened to stumble upon your blog today and you have a lot of nice recipes, I will be visiting your blog more often. I have a question about the Penne with Pumpkin. In your notes you mention you added some chicken to the recipe. How much chicken breasts did you use and how much seasoning did you use on the chicken. Also when you sauteed the chicken how much oil did you use and what kind of oil did use.

As far as I know, my husband doesn’t read my blog, and that’s just fine with me – he’s supportive about my writing and cooking in other ways. But sometimes I’ll tease him or the kids, “Be careful – I may blog about that,” especially if they’re complaining about something I’ve made for dinner.

My sister reads my blog faithfully, and both she and my husband talk it up, so I’m grateful for their encouragement.

On the food related note, pumpkin cream sauce on pasta sounds interesting. I have always used pumpkin on sweet dish but have been giving it lots of thoughts of using it on savory and this dish sounds like a good start for me.

I agree with you about Rachael Ray too. She might not be the most easy person to watch, but she certainly inspires millions to understand the concept that good food can be achieved at home, simply and deliciously. She might not be liked most foodies (especially the snobby ones), but I know for a fact that she gets millions out there to cook, where they would not otherwise. I have many clients who would normally feed their kids take out, now are cooking home meals for their families because of RR. That’s one step to better food, health and awareness. Not everyone is on the Thomas Keller level of food understanding, it takes time.

Go for the Dyson, I have heard great things!

And the recipe sounds just delicious!

I’ve made a very similar sauce to that except mine used cream cheese instead of heavy cream.

I am not married nor taken, so my loved ones would be my parents (and I suppose my brother haha). I haven’t told them about my blog because they are parents and will probably go eek personal info on the internet! My friends know and they visit sometimes.

DH and I have thought about a Dyson but testdrove one the other day and weren’t that impressed for the money- but people love them so what do we know?

I never had breakouts as a teenager but for the last ten or so years I get them in my temple area all the time- I’m 45 when will it end ;0

You’d think the Wii would be good practise- I can’t sing on auditions- I can sing if I’m in the chorus but my voice goes away when I audition -wierd huh?

I could use a good web designer too – I just use the free WordPress themes but I would like an overhaul- is it pricey?

Dh reads my blog- not everyday but he catches up about once a week. My feelings do get a little hurt that other friends and fam don’t seem to care- but i had my blog for about 8 months when my Mum suddenly got really in to it and was calling me everytday to say she’d cooked something off it – too funny

Well your pasta looks scrumptious- sorry for such a long comment!

My mom and sisters don’t read my blog either. I guess my mom has looked at it from time to time.

If you are interested, you can look at the designer who did my stationery page but it may be too expensive for a blog… I don’t know. http://quirky-bird.com/

1. I have wood floors in the majority of the house and a cleaning lady that brings her vacuum for the rooms that have carpet. I do have one of those cordless sweeper vacs, love it!

2. I’ve never had a problem with acne but I will get one, maybe two when it’s nearing THAT time of the month.

3. No Wii in my household but we’re tossing around the idea for one as a “family” Christmas gift. I want that Wii fit, Mama needs to work off those extra pounds!

4. Sorry, can’t help you here.

5. Nobody but my Mom reads my blog and only after I remind her. I need to do like Susan does….”ifa you no reada da blog you no geta da food”!

RR’s recipe sounds good but I think my children would like some protein in it. As for RR I’ve yet to try anything of hers though I do have her first 2 cookbooks. She has some oddball combinations.
