February 14th, 2010 — About Me, Cooking
This is out 2nd annual girls cooking night and sleep over. My dear friend Lindsey and I do this every year with friends. This year we cooked fig and brie tartlets, which are super easy and make for the best hor s d’oeuvres. ( Recipe Below ) For dinner it was baked salmon with a beurre blanc sauce over a parmesan risotto. Above are me with my tartlets, just out of the oven! Soooo Yum!

Must Own Valentine’s Day Albums
February 14th, 2010 — Music
Just in time for Valentine’s Day, Sade has realised her new Album “Solider of Love.” It has been a much anticipated, since her last album “Lovers Rock” was realised over 10 years ago. Sade managed to produce another flawless collection of melancholy hits like songs “Solider of Love” and “In Another Time,” My personal favorites. Even though it is quite a cliche it’s a must own for love making and quiet nights in with the one you love. Available on iTunes for $10.99 – THE WIFE
Don’t let the name “The XX” fool you. At first glance they could be written off as a punk band, but as soon as the music fades in its all seductively calm and gentle music. The more you listen to tunes like “Intro,” “Islands,” and “Basic Space” the more addicting it becomes. I highly recommend it for sunsets and dinner parties. Available on iTunes for $9.99. – THE WIFE
