http://christineispink.blogspot.com/2012/03/potatoes-part-3-gnocchi-three-ways.html
Wednesday, March 21, 2012. Potatoes. Part 3. Gnocchi, three ways. So, as promised, GNOCCHI! This is one of those things that one of my college roommates and best friends ALWAYS orders. You know how you have a group of people that eats together often enough and you get a feel for each others' tastes? My sister really likes gnocchi and I've been meaning to make some for her from scratch. (This is how I show my love, I make your favorite foods from scratch - tell the boys! It's insanely simple. Boil two...

christine.is.pink: Potatoes. Part 5. Potato wedges.
http://christineispink.blogspot.com/2012/03/potatoes-part-5-potato-wedges.html
Friday, March 23, 2012. Potatoes. Part 5. Potato wedges. A casual potato snack for casual Friday! This is my own recipe based on lots of others and a bit of trial and error. It's a good serving size for an after-dinner snack for our family of 3-4 adults (depending on who's home). 3 large-ish potatoes cut into 8ths lengthwise. 1/2 tsp garlic salt. 1 tbs olive oil. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit (since I usually make a small batch I nearly always use the toaster oven for this - heats up quicker!

christine.is.pink: I get excited about kids killing kids!!!
http://christineispink.blogspot.com/2012/03/hunger-games.html
Thursday, March 22, 2012. I get excited about kids killing kids! Okay, so the title of this post is clearly not true. But after writing the post, I realized some/all of my favorite books are really about kids killing kids (Ender's Game, The Hunger Games, the Harry Potter books). But you can't blame me for these books being so epic! That was actually the first draft of this post. I thought I'd let some of you enjoy or at least try to imagine how excited I was when I sat down to write this. And despite eve...

christine.is.pink: i bought my first e-reader!
http://christineispink.blogspot.com/2013/12/i-bought-my-first-e-reader.html
Thursday, December 19, 2013. I bought my first e-reader! I bought a Kindle Paperwhite. Wifi only, with ads. For $119 (no special pricing). BUT I’M SO EXCITED! I’ve started referring to it as my new best friend. As in, “I can’t wait for my new best friend to get here.” I got free 2-day shipping (my sister is a student! On my iPhone. But the glare was tiring out my eyes and making them noticeably drier (I wear contact lenses). So, I bit the bullet. YAYYY FOR MY NEW E-READER! And if so, what kind/which?

http://christineispink.blogspot.com/2011/10/food-on-friday-5-pasta-carbonara-quest.html
Friday, November 18, 2011. Food on Friday 5: Pasta Carbonara. (A Quest! So, there was a boy who was terrified of my cooking and the only American food he claimed to like was pasta carbonara. Naturally, I had to learn to make the BEST! This was quite an experiment - because I had to learn to make it on my own first, before I could dish it up and "WOW! Naturally, my first instinct was to check it out on Wikipedia. To see the "roots" of the dish. To check ratios and common ingredients. I cut up 1/2 a brocco...

Tuesday, April 3, 2012. How Daylight Savings Time makes me feel. I have a folder on my computer desktop titled "Pictures to Organize" and I just drag and drop (I have a MacBook Pro) pictures I come across on the internet that I find funny or interesting or think I'd like to share with a friend, etc. I was going through it and found this:. This combines two things I super-like: truth about how I feel and Hyberbole and a Half. I MADE (OR GOT RID OF) AN HOUR! I MOVED BACK IN TIME! Links to this post. To go ...

http://christineispink.blogspot.com/2012/03/food-on-friday-strawberry-cake-cookies.html
Friday, March 23, 2012. Food on Friday: Strawberry cake cookies! So, since the potato wedges were so easy I felt a little like I'd cheated at a "REAL" food post. Here's the follow-up of a sneak peek. I gave at the finished product a few weeks ago. I was alerted to this sweet pink recipe by Tiffany. And the original recipe is here. This is one of my "semi-homemade"-type recipes, just FYI. (I seriously think that show. Is so underrated, but that's a. Analysis for another day.). Not using TWO boxes! I might...
