Now that I have a baby, I'm branching out into trying to make new foods. Last night I grilled Salmon (something I used to hate until I had some of my Dads a few years back at Papadeux), and made Cheesy Broccoli Soup. I was so impressed with myself. This was the second time I've ever made salmon, but the first time it was baked. It turned out really good. I told DJ to be prepared because I was going to be experimenting once a week with foods I don't normally make.
Next week, I'm going to make some sort of sea food concoction that I saw online. It calls for Saffron. Do you know how much saffron is?!!! WTF is it anyway? I went to the store and the spice container had a little tiny envelop in it (I can only assume there are about 2 sprigs of whatever it is in there), and it cost $15.00!!!! I will be making this food concoction without it.
