Cheesy Scallion Grits with Lemony Asparagus
Filed under: easy dinners, money-savers, vegetarian dinner, you have got to try this!
I haven't quite gotten my multi-tasking swagger back, so Joe had to stir the grits while I blanched the asparagus. Let me tell you the secret to some delicious and ever-so-creamy grits. If you have never had good grits, or you swear you hate them, pay attention. Cook the grits on the stove with some milk. I used 2% because we're out of half and half.

I bought a load of some sort of cheese a while back at Costco. I cannot for the...

After a long week at work, my husband and I bummed out on the couch for the better half of the afternoon watching the first episode of Twin Peaks. We recently visited some of the places where they filmed. We took a belated honeymoon because neither of our work schedules matched up until October 3-10. We flew out to Seattle because we both had always wanted to go. Most people didn't really seem as psyched as us to be going out to the west coast. Joe's sister-in-law, Linda, told me about this luxurious Salish Lodge in Snoqualmie Falls which is...
