It was such a treat to have my sister here last week for her spring break! We had a wonderful time together and spent a lot of time in the kitchen. I taught her how to make bread, and *hopefully* inspired her to venture into some cooking of her own :)

(made with no-rise dough)
(with Irish Soda Bread)

The weather was soooo nice, we decided to grill one evening -- New York White Hot Dogs -- a rare treat around here! We had homemade hotdog buns, sweet potato fries and pickles too!
The time is now ticking towards my dissertation defense. I have two weeks before I submit it to my committee and then two more weeks until my defense. {insert little mini freak out here}. One of my great ways to manage stress is to cook -- so, I'm looking forward to our menu this week!
