Trail of tears
















This is a picture, not of real blood or tears, but of ice cream. Nutella ice cream. I tried to make Mom's birthday cake with an inner layer of Nutella ice cream... and then it all melted. Everywhere.

Easy-peasy spaghetti/tomato sauce by 101cookbooks that I used for pizza
Raw&Cooked Vegetable salad (that was wonderful!) from Lydia's Italy (Barbara, you would love this!)

And some other recipes that I've made lately that will be added to the regular rotation:
