go colts!


Turns out blue jello® makes green baked goods. :( Guess I should have remembered my Colts cupcakes back in '07. Those babies won an award at our work pitch-in though! ;)

bows


I haven't quite decided if this shirt is ridiculous or cute. For whatever reason, I wandered into a store that I hate and that is probably too young for me considering I'm almost THIRTY (omg!). Either way, I had fun wearing it. :)

tomato tart


Recipe from Martha Stewart's Baking Handbook.

I invited my friend, Marc, over to watch the Grammy's and instead of ordering fatty pizza, I made a tomato tart. It was actually quite tasty although if you make it - I'd suggest adding more cheese than the recipe calls for. And maybe use heirloom tomatoes - yum!

cookie love



Whew, finally marked something off of my 30 before 30 list! Heidelberg German Bakery is where I got the small cookies... they're okay. I really wanted a sugar cookie though, so I headed to Boyden's and was excited to see Colts sugar cookies! :)

food + win


The combination of brussel sprouts and egg noodles is quite nice. You can't forget the capers in this, they add the perfect little bit of flavor.






Oh yeah, and the Colts are going to the superbowl! :D

best yogurt



I am in love with Trader's Point Creamery. You just can't leave there w/o a meal and some yogurt for home!

bread salad



A friend once made this for me and I've been hooked ever since. I'm not sure exactly how she made hers, but I made up my own recipe from how I remembered it. Bread, tomatoes, garlic, onion, red pepper, lettuce, green onion, thyme, basil, salt, pepper, olive oil and red wine vinegar. Yum!

dream parking spot



When a Jimmy Johns craving hits and you are downtown w/o an umbrella, a good parking spot is quite exciting! :)

antique



I picked up this ring from an antique store last Saturday for $5 and I am totally loving it! At the time, I had too much in my hands to really take a good look at it so I didn't even notice that the stone isn't a stone at all... it's a plastic bead! I thought it was charming. :)

pony tails



Last summer I dated this rude boy who tried to mold me into his ex-fiancè. One of his many requests of me was to grow out my hair. Even though that ridiculousness only lasted a few weeks, I was kinda into the idea of letting it get longer. Today I realized that I can fit it into a pony tail on the top of my head and have been loving it all night. :)

tomato, rice and sausage soup



This may be the best thing I've ever cooked. I'm not even exaggerating! I even used turkey sausage instead of andouille. Oh my, thank you Martha!



My baking chocolate expired in 2007 so out of desperation, I used some dark hershey kisses and it was amazing! Loving Martha today. :)

being supportive ;)



I have this awesome Colts t-shirt with the weirdest neck. Today, I finally figured out how to sport it! A short sweater so the Colts graphic hangs out a little. I love it. :) Go Colts, y'all. :)

clams



Recipe from Martha's new cookbook, Dinner at Home.

I have to admit, this wasn't all that great. I think it's b/c I don't like clams (this was my first time eating a clam). Maybe I just didn't make them right. I certainly don't enjoy the way they've made my condo smell... but the shells were pretty... and I tried something new... and the recipe called for wine so I had to drink some since the bottle was open... so... :)
