What's for dinner?

I'm going to start posting recipes. I don't care if you don't want to see what I eat (Chelsea), the fact is that a good portion of my life is spent cooking so I am sharing recipes & pics of our dinner. You should all do the same so we can get new things to make too.

QUICHE! (we like to call it quee chay)

I thought I hated this, but actually love it! Plus it's a great way to sneak vegetables into your dinner. I always put brocolli, peppers and mushrooms in it.

6 eggs
Ready made Pilsbury pie crust (or you can make your own if you have time)
sour cream
cheese - we like pepper jack
red, yellow & orange peppers
mushrooms
broccoli
PAPRIKA!

Saute broc, peps, and shrooms in butter until soft
Whisk eggs with a little sour cream (you can omit the sour cream if you want), stir in cheese (how ever much you want)
Place crust in bottom of sprayed pie dish
Pour vegetables on to crust
cover with egg and cheese mixture
sprinkle entire quiche with paprika. This makes the quiche sooo yummy and makes a red crust on the top

Bake @ 375 for about 40-50 minutes.

Add a side veggi and voila, easy and so yummy. Plus it makes a great breakfast the next day. I also garnish with avocado and fresh tomatoes.

enjoy!

Friday Flashback

This is Mike and I about 1998. I was 16 he was 17. I liked to go tanning every other day and I nicknamed myself Starr Martinez. (No offense to anyone, I was just extremely tan) And a shade of orange!

The best part is Mike's shirt. He was vegan and liked to tell everyone about it. Ah to be 17 again!

It's OK not to drink milk!

PRICELESS!

curls

I wish I had her curls! I'm so glad she didn't get my stick straight thin hair.


She took her first steps on Sunday 2/1/09. She still prefers to crawl or walk with you holding her hands.

Friday Flashback

Emily & I went to NY with one of our law firms clients, this is mugshot above! Yes, it does sound crazy. He thought I could be the next Cindy Crawford, or something, and he was taking us for fashion week. Here is his news article to go with the mug shot above. You have to admit that his mugshot is priceless!

Park City's Ira Sachs charged with marijuana possession, juvenile endangerment

By Christopher Smart

The Salt Lake Tribune
Updated: 01/08/2009 06:58:29 PM MST

Park City businessman and bon vivant Ira Sachs, 72, was charged Thursday in Summit County's 3rd District Court with third-degree felonies, including marijuana possession with "intent to distribute" and "endangering a juvenile."

Sachs earlier was booked and released on a $7,775 bond from Summit County Jail. He could not be reached for comment Thursday afternoon.

For decades, Sachs has been one of Park City's most colorful residents and is known for his friendly demeanor and generosity.

The legal action stems from a Jan. 1 call to the Summit County Sheriff's Office that a suicidal female needed assistance as Sachs' Snyderville Basin residence.

According to court documents filed by County Attorney David Brickey, Sachs invited deputies into his home where they "detected a strong odor of marijuana" and "observed a marijuana pipe" near the suicidal female who was determined to be a juvenile.

Paramedics also responded, but the female, whose name was not released, was unharmed, said Summit County Sheriff Dave Edmunds.

Deputies sought a warrant after Sachs refused to let them search the house. While conducting a search, they turned up 11 ounces of marijuana in the master bedroom.

Sachs also was charged with third-degree felony child endangerment by "knowingly or intentionally" allowing a minor to ingest a controlled substance.

According to the charging document, a 14-year-old female, who occupies a spare bedroom
in the house with her mother, told deputies that Sachs "leaves his marijuana out for other people to use, and explained that she had smoked marijuana at the New Years Eve party [Sachs] had hosted the previous night."

No trial date has been set.


Here's our pics from the trip circa Sept. 2004






Here's me n Em in August 04

Cravings

DAMMIT! I want a treat right now. Lennon is asleep, Mike's at the Jazz game. Here are my options:
avocado, too veggi
kiwi, too healthy
apple, see above
Hall's or Ricola cough drops, no

You see my dilemma?! Oh and if you were wondering, let's just say that dirty martinis taste, well, dirty. That may have been my first and last. Moving onto the appletini.

One of my 2009 wishes is to drink dirty martinis. Lots of em. I'm making one right now, so wish me luck.
