A Little Down Time

So today, I only worked just a little this morning and went to my favorite supermarket with Russell. We were in the vegetable isle when Russ noticed and picked up leeks. From reading some of my favorite food blogs, I remembered seeing the Smitten Kitchen blog about a leek tart. So we threw the leeks into our shopping cart. Came home, dragged in all the food and I started cooking. I made a quick pie dough and then prepared the leeks and the rest of the ingredients. This tart is much lighter than a quiche as there is no cheese and I used whole milk instead of cream. We only drink skim milk in this house, so whole milk feels like cream to us. Well I followed the instructions and boy did my leek tart come out great. (see photos).

I'm still trying to dig out from all my papers, and I'm really gaining on it! This week we are expecting another shipment of ties to complete the inventory. Then I can pick the orders complete. So please don't forget to go see our sales reps at the Charlotte, Chicago, and Dallas Shows next weekend (Superbowl Weekend).

Had to send off another email regarding the contest I won. I was thinking maybe they never received my email with my name and address. Got a quick email back that all was received and that I must wait 6 - 8 weeks! WOWZERS. In the meantime I read on the Amazon website -- 12 reviews and ALL gave the book 5 STARS! NOW I CAN'T WAIT TO GET MY COPY of Ellie Kreiger's healthy cooking. Wonder if my leek tart would be considered healthy?

OKie DOkie!

Looking forward to the week ahead!

YIPPEE -- I LOVE TIES!!!!!!!!!!!!

Best,
