Yum

Tried a few new recipes in the last few days. We enjoyed Giada De Laurentis' chicken florentine, very easy to prepare and good flavor. Also decided to try a chocolate-ricotta icebox cake I saw in the latest issue of Everyday Food. The cake is quite dense (since it uses ricotta), but it looks quite fancy - would definitely impress your friends :) I ended up substituting dark chocolate (from Trader Joe's) for semi-sweet, which made the cake more rich than sweet - I think the semi-sweet would have been better.

Oh, and Project Runway Season 3 has started! We've only watched the 'pre-show' so far (love TiVo!), but looking forward to all the crazy designs (and drama).

And finally, now that my 'craft corner' is semi-organized, I can craft once again. Made the card below this evening.
