I spent the majority of my weekend in the kitchen. Seriously…I was in the kitchen almost the whole weekend. Even though I’m exhausted and currently writing this post with a heating pad attached my back/neck, I got a lot of stuff done and I feel super accomplished. You know that feeling, when you have so much to do, you can barely get it together but you finally find a way to make it through your to do list? I feel like that – like I finally burst through and cooked a lot of the foods I needed to cook and photograph before John and I head back to Charleston.

I finally purchased a food processor this weekend – I cannot believe I’ve gone this long in my cooking life without having one. I picked it up Friday night and I’ve already used it 5 (or more) times. One of my favorite kitchen appliances now. Do you own a food processor? I’m now a believer that everyone should own one. Depending on which brand you buy and how many cups it holds, there relatively inexpensive. I bought a Black & Decker 8 cup processor and so far good.

I got a copy of Chrissy Teigen’s new cookbook – can’t wait to try some recipes!

Hope you had a great weekend! Happy Monday!
