Happy Easter!!!


It's Easter and that means I have an excellent excuse to spend a whole day in the kitchen.

Today's menu:
4 Berry Pie -- homemade, I can't disclose my secrets... pie is my backup career (seriously)
Roast loin of pork crusted in salt, pepper, garlic and rosemary ala Tedward
Gravy from the pork's onion bed

Salad courtesy of Zeny and Co
Homemade Lemonade from French Food at Home--Cooking Channel
AND these tasty lil apps: Dijon Prosciutto Asparagus Wraps (needs a shorter name!)

Here's how to make them:

Ingredients:
  1. Dijon mustard
  2. Pillsbury Crescent "Big and Flaky" Rolls
  3. Prosciutto (10 slices)
  4. Asparagus (20 pieces)

How to make pieces of heaven:
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degree.
  2. Roll out crescent shapes one at a time.
  3. Spread a thin to medium layer of dijon mustard on the crescent.
4. Now apply a piece of prosciutto (rip the meat so that it doesn't go "outside the lines" of the piece of dough.
5. Cut two asparagus in half and add to the thicker end of the crescent + prosciutto piece. Roll from the thinker end to the skinny end . Wrap extra dough around where necessary. (Some meat and asparagus will be visible.)
6. Assemble and line up on baking sheet. Cook at the temperature the crescent roll package suggests. (Mine cooked in 12 minutes at 350 degrees).

Take them out of the oven and enjoy!
And after much anticipation, the pie was a success too!

Self Promotion (website)

Does all this advertising leave you thirsty for more?  Well, don't you worry; I've got a site to quench your thirst.  I've said it before, my goal is to make you CRAVE me.
Recently my hilarious Hawaiian friend Zeny (who refuses to go outdoors because she is in constant search for a job) blogged about a site that may just help me land the job of my dreams.  (Check out her blog - It will make you smile every-time; after all, it's the insight of a SPAM-eater.)    
The site is called KROP, because it shows cropped versions of your creative work that when clicked on, enlarge to show off your stuff.  It also has a second feature that exhibits your resume, which can be conveniently downloaded as a PDF.  (hire me, hint hint.)  
Anyway, mine is done so check it out, forward it to important people or just appreciate that I JUST graduated and I'm sober and being productive.
