From me. Concerning my previous post about my new favorite cookbook. We walked in the door from an evening of kickball and soccer at 7:40pm. We had refused to do nasty, fast take-out and I was dreading another dinner of waffles or grilled cheese sandwiches. Ms. Stewart to the rescue. Approximately 1 hour later, we had enjoyed a delicious and healthy dinner of grilled tomato linguine (with fresh tomatoes and thyme from my garden), a fresh green salad with a quick homemade vinaigrette and just for good measure, I whipped up a quick batch of fresh croutons using the leftovers of a couple day old bread. The kids had also showered, gotten ready for bed, and the dishes were done. They were in bed by 8:45. Whew, sure am glad this day is over.
