So, a funny thing happened on the way to this black bean soup ...

True confession time? Cooking burgers makes me nervous.

My friends, I am tired.

Have I mentioned how much I love a sandwich?

My darlings, I'm ever so sorry for the unintentional hiatus I inadvertently went on—I can't think what has been going on that would distract me from blogging ...

While I consider myself to be a relatively modest person (all things in moderation, after all), I can't help but want to toot my own horn a little bit on this one. 

Look, Ma! I made dessert!
