Which brings me to my cooking. And I'm sure everyone is like this--sometimes you are really into cooking and sometimes, not so much. Well, apparently this week I really was. Last night we tried the recipe I got out of a Gourmet Magazine my mom gave me. I am always a sucker for anything with a Thai flavor and have been looking for an excuse to use the metal skewers we got last year, so when I saw this recipe I was in. And the dip to go with it. I really loved the chicken while Tony thought the dip was the very best. While we were all outside hanging out by Tony and the grill, Enzo said, "Let's have a picnic!". And since he is the boss of us, we did.

And later on, I baked the cookies Enzo and I had made earlier in the day. They're called "pesto coins" and contain butter, flour, parm, garlic, basil, and pine nuts. I had such high hopes for these, but they were just mediocre. I was so exited since Enz is always requesting to make cookies (but no one in our household really likes cookies) and I finally thought I'd found a "cookie" that we'd love as it's savory, not sweet. They were just OK, but we did have a fun time making them. Anybody know any good savory cookie recipes?

I found myself smiling ear to ear and laughing out loud while reading this. My co-workers think I'm crazy. The pics of the chicken & dip are making my mouth water! Is that you knee? Kimberley you need to shave. haha! For the cookies - what if you added extra butter, do you think that would do the trick? Extra butter makes EVERYTHING better!
Even though I am not chicken's biggest fan, that dip does look fantastic! (you know how i love thai flavor, too!)
