...and soon to be pesto.

Can you identify these?  It's my first year growing them.

Cobb Salad

My good friend Tami came over for dinner last night, and she said I should put a picture of what I made her on my blog.  :)  So here you go -

I used the Cook's Illustrated recipe, which was great!  If you want it, message me.

MS Follow-Up

Chris and I headed up to the Cleveland Clinic today for my bi-annual follow up appointment.  This visit was a little different than the last as it included MRI testing.  The best way to determine the progression of MS and the efficacy of disease modifying drugs is to compare MRI's over time and look for changes.  I will have MRI's yearly forever.  This doesn't make me particularly happy, though honestly it could be worse!

So, the fantastic news is that my MRI showed absolutely no change in over a year.  Which means that the disease is stable and that the medication and the prayer is working!  I am very thankful!!!

The Best Kind of Vegetable

I've constructed the perfect definition for "the best kind of vegetable."  Ready?  The best kind of vegetable is the one your kids won't even let you take into the house because they want to eat them as soon as they are picked.  In this case, and right now at my house, the best kind of vegetable is sugar snap peas.  I have to agree, they are delicious.
