Oh my!  So, the Trader Joe’s eggplant hummus inspired me to make my own.  I am so glad I did.  Roasted 1 whole eggplant and cooked some chick peas.  Into the food processor went: chick peas, 1 1/2 juiced lemons, 2 cloves of garlic, 1 1/2 tbsp. tahini, salt and pepper.  Didn’t seem to need any olive oil because of the moisture from the eggplant.

I have some Ezekial wraps which actually seem to hard and dry to “wrap.”  This has been my second package like that.  Not sure if that is normal or if they are old when I buy them.  Baked in the oven with olive oil, salt and pepper makes perfect chips though.

Sometimes snacking plates make the best dinners!

I also made a rhubarb, strawberry and raspberry pie for my husband.  We had a garden this summer and grew rhubarb.  He loves the stuff!  Can’t say I do.  We cleaned and cut a bunch of it and froze it.  He has been asking, so I finally gave in.

Onto some exciting giveaway info!!

Do not ask me how those chips found there way into the bowl… I have no idea!
