This weekend was so busy. We went to a birthday party for a special two year old (I think my daughter is beginning to wonder if she gets to have a birthday, since we've been to four birthday parties since Christmas!). We had an old friend come for dinner. We hosted "poker night" at our house. We also had a list of other errands to run...including getting some things done for my daughter's birthday party. With all these gatherings, I did get to try a few new recipes. Two of these came from Alli N' Son and were fabulous. Check out her rosemary foccacia and spicy chocolate chip cookies. I followed both recipes as stated (except I used whole wheat flour for both) so I won't be making a separate post about them. I used the foccacia as a bread for my jerk chicken sandwiches. The cookies were made for poker night, and I offered extra chips to the person who could guess the "secret" ingredient to make them spicy. No one got it. The cookies were gone at the end of the night, so they must have been a hit. I'll try to post some other recipe throughout the week. One of them is a very good and somewhat healthy blueberry cream cheese dessert!
