One night a few years back, I kicked off my shoes and decided to catch up on a little reading via recipe searches – love to see what’s new out there. That’s when I came upon Basil Garlic Noodle over at Cooking with a Wallflower. Andrea’s dish looked wonderful and her blog had great photos. It’s a fun read with a great presentation and general yummy feel. I’m usually so rushed when I’m cooking that I don’t often take pictures along the way. I should – I really should think “blog”, but I don’t – shame on me! And my family is usually so famished at the end of the day, I’m lucky I get that “finished” photo snapped before being overrun as they dig in. Truth be told, most of the pictures are of my plate that I take in another room to “snap” before joining my hungry fellows.
