Old Bay Fries with Bloody Mary Ketchup: My Diary of Us

Old Bay Fries with Bloody Mary Ketchup

In New York my friend Sarah took us to a place called Shorty's where they have really good cheese steaks and the bread is from Philly making them super authentic.  We definitely went for the sandwiches, and not that my sandwich wasn't delicious, because it was, but what I really fell in love with were the fries.  Old Bay fries to be exact.  I love Old Bay so I am not sure why it has never occurred to me before to sprinkle some on my fries.  So that's what I did this week I made you a healthier baked version of Old Bay fries and kicked it up a notch with some Bloody Mary ketchup!

Sooo, I'm thinking brunch.  Fried eggs on top, runny yokes...the whole bit, maybe some green onions sliced on top of that... You feeling me yet?

Sausage, Sweet Potato, and Sage Frittata: My Diary of Us

Sausage, Sweet Potato, and Sage Frittata

Hi, it's me...Leigh Ann, the girl who disappeared on ya for a couple of weeks.  I know I am horrible and you have probably been starving because I have not been posting my recipes regularly...or maybe you actually can survive with me, but I don't like to think about that.  So let's pretend your life hasn't been the same without my usual posts to keep you company.  K?   I am here to feed you today, and the recipe is really good, so maybe you can forgive me, just this once.  I have the perfect brunch for your Thanksgiving weekend to make you a rock star in the eyes of all of your houseguests.  My sausage, sweet potato, and sage frittata is super easy, you will have most of the ingredients already, and it will knock everyone's socks off in the taste department.

We all know that when Thanksgiving rolls around you buy too much of everything just in case something goes wrong.  If we are lucky, nothing goes wrong but then we have a bunch of leftover herbs and other ingredients and then what?

Whole Wheat Rosemary Crust Tomato Galette: My Diary of Us

Whole Wheat Rosemary Crust Tomato Galette

TGIF.  Am I right?  I'm pretty excited about tonight because we are carving pumpkins with Canean's sisters.  We are going to eat chili, drink pomegranate sangria, and pretend we are ten again, well except for the cocktail part.  The nights have been slightly chilly this week which is going to make for a perfect fall night.  I love when Friday nights start the weekend off with a bang and kind of set the momentum for Saturday and Sunday.  And another requirement for a great weekend is a great breakfast or brunch at some point.  This easy whole wheat rosemary crust tomato galette is perfect for just that!

If you are a lazy baker like me, then galettes are right up your alley.  Imperfection is what makes these great, it's kind of necessary in fact.  You don't need perfect edges, there is no refrigerating overnight.  You can throw whatever ingredients on top of the simple dough, which can be made in the food processor, and you have yourself an easy breakfast, brunch, or lunch!
