Hello!
January is officially over and it already feels like spring here in Sac-town.
Below are my favorites from January 2012, enjoy!
Versus from my Kitchen - Sweet Potato Bubble & Squeak - I have admired Michael's dishes on Tasty Kitchen since I first joined. I only recently (duh) added his blog to my feed and his writing is as lovely as his food & photos. Oh yeah, and I noticed this was originally posted in December, but for some reason it just popped up for me. Therefore, it is a January favorite of mine.
Not Rachel Ray - Healthy New Year - Whole Wheat Flat Bread & Roasted Garlic White Bean Dip This white bean hummus looks so good! I'm also a fan of Bob's Red Barn, but I've never made my own flat bread!
Team Studer - 25 Rules for Mothers of Sons - I absolutely love this.
Love and Olive Oil - Quinoa Cakes with Lemon Olive and Parsley - Just yum.
A Cup of Jo - Travel Fantasy, Haven in Paris - Ahh....I've been dreaming of Paris lately.....
Benjamin Bullins Artists Websites via Facebook via Pinterest - Just because it's neat. And involves a bike (of course).
Not Rachel Ray - Build a Better Me - I think I will be submitting a few recipes to this challenge!
Whats Gaby Cooking - Mushroom and Sesame Noodles - Yes, this looks delicious. But I'm adding it here because this is the first time I've ever heard of Quinoa Noodles?!? What the what? That is awesome. I will certainly be looking for those!
The blog Better After - I found this in January so I'm calling it a January favorite. This blog is awesome! Who doesn't love a before and after?? I am totally inspired to re-finish junky old furniture now.
Oh, Bee - Iconatomy - Neat-o. And kind of surreal too.
Jenna's Everything Blog - Purging 112 things in 1/12 - I like this idea. Start out your year by purging 112 things in the month of January. I think The Cyclist & I already completed this (x20) in our garage clean out. But I still have plenty to purge....I like the idea of having a number as a goal.
How Sweet It Is - Creamy Tuscan White Bean Pasta - This looks good. And because Jessica seems nice even though I've only met her in blogosphere. And because I've never cooked anything of hers I didn't like. And because beans and pasta is neat.
She Wears Many Hats - Meyer Lemon Creme Brulee - Oh meyer lemon. I love these guys. This sound fantastic. Now I just need someone to make it for me. I'm afraid of cooking with fire.
Iowa Girl Eats - Quinoa Mac & Cheese - I can't tell you how many 
Joy The Baker - Strawberry Cucumber Smoothie - I have never thought of adding cucumber to a smoothie. I've heard of adding spinach - it adds a veggie but you can't taste it. But cucumber sounds interesting and probably adds a nice fresh flavor. I like it!
The Tasty Alternative - Homemade Almond Milk - By the way, want to make your own almond milk to go with that ↑ smoothie? Here you go!
How Sweet It Is - Simple Buffalo Chicken Soup - Hello soup. I think I will eat you for the Superbowl.
Eat, Live, Run - Brussels Sprouts with Bacon, Dried Cherries and Israeli Couscous - I am a fan of Brussels sprouts. I never was before until Tankyoupete made them and now I ♥ them. And now I keep seeing all of these yummy ways to eat them. Like this from my November Favorites. Anyway, this one looks super tasty and hearty. I will have to try it soon!
Simply Scratch - Blood Orange & Honey Sorbet - The Munchkin's Mommy just told us about the ice cream attachment for the Kitchen Aid Mixer. Now I really want one so I can make this!
A Cup of Jo - Sh*t Liz Lemon Says - If you don't love Liz Lemon you should probably go to the doctor, cause somethin' is wrong witch you! What tha what?!
