Quick recipe share: Couscous and kidney bean pilaf. The recipe is just as it looks. I added fire roasted red peppers, onions, celery and parsley. It was a dandy. I think couscous might not be so great as far as carbs go though….?

The gray days, dark at 4:30 and rain have been dragging on me. I do like the rain, don’t get me wrong. Wet, muddy shoes in the house make me grumpy. Wet pine needles in the house; even grumpier. Is it just me, or do you feel like its bedtime at 7:00, cause its been [...]
