One last glimpse of winter...

Mother nature decided to play one last trick on us and brought some snow to the Fredericksburg area overnight. I have to admit, it was very pretty to wake up to, though I am glad that it has all melted and disappeared now. Here are a few pictures I took:

I always like to make up new recipes and I tried out a new one this weekend. I made calzones with homemade whole wheat pizza dough, tomato sauce, meatballs cut into small pieces, fresh spinach chopped, mixed italian cheese, and italian seasoning. They turned out to be delicious and large so the 2 that I made will end up being 4 meals for me!

Yummy :)

I'm baaack!!

After a month-long hiatus, a "Spring Break" road trip across NC and TN, a computer repair, and the beginning of Spring, I'm back!

Right outside my apartment :)

Of course, there have been some delicious food experiences along the way!

Here are a few of my favorites:

*San Antonio's Restaurant, Charlotte, NC-modern Mexican with fresh, delicious dishes. Some are a little spicy so beware, but everything was really good. My mouth is watering just thinking about it! For more information: http://www.centraarchy.com/samm/

*Miller's Country Cafe, Christiana, TN-country cookin' just like it is from Grandma's kitchen. Wonderful gem in a tiny town outside of Murfreesboro. Definitely worth the drive! I recommend taking a dessert home with you because you will likely feel like you are going to pop after finishing your meal! http://www.millersgrocery.com/

*Tupelo Honey Cafe-delicious southern food created from fresh, local ingredients served in a "old fashioned tea room" building in downtown Asheville, NC. Definitely recommend checking it out! http://www.tupelohoneycafe.com/

*French Broad Chocolate Lounge, Asheville, NC-OMG, I love chocolate so this place was a must-visit on our trip to Asheville! It was wonderful! Fresh desserts, homemade truffles, and delicious homemade hot chocolate served in a relaxing atmosphere which features live music on Friday nights. Amazing!!! http://frenchbroadchocolates.com/

*Wright Inn, Asheville, NC-Taylor and I spent a night at this B&B and it was wonderful! The innkeepers were very friendly and helpful, and the breakfast they served was awesome! Beautifully decorated in a funky neighborhood just outside of downtown. Recommend it rather than a hotel!
