Snow Ice Cream

For the North Carolina Winter Storm Craze 2014 here is a treat:

Stick a big bowl outside the door and let it fill up with snow while you are inside all warm and snugly. A hot cup of chocolate doesn't hurt. And then:

Stir up 1 bowl full of snow, vanilla extract, sugar, and heavy cream; all to your taste and then digg in. 100% snow fun guaranteed.

No Nonsense Scrambled Eggs

That's how we see it. Bam!

Olive oil and eggs into the pan.

Wait. Heavy Cream. Salt. Pepper. Scramble.

(For giggles we tried some tarragon today. We have added in the past parmesan, onions, parsley, tomatoes, whatever ...)

A Quick Chopped Salad

To add a quick salad to our dinner we chopped up some lettuce, orange pepper, small tomatoes, and  an avocado. Then we added a couple gulps of olive oil. Right into the salad.

A bit of red wine vinegar and the juice of a lemon. Salt. Pepper.

We tossed it by hand and sliced some red onions at the end for looks. Bam! 5 minutes flat.
