These are my building blocks for almost everything I cook in the winter. Onions, garlic, kosher salt. The day I took the photo, these ingredients turned into spaghetti sauce. Just about every day I find myself chopping up onions and garlic and placing them in with some variation of vegetables, beans or meat in this pot and stirring with this wooden spoon.

But tonight, I am going out to dinner. No cooking for me!

This post from Angela made my day. I love how she is using the twine with the clothespegs! And it reminds me that I need to make some more clothespeg dolls...

I hear we are getting snow tomorrow. My fingers are crossed. I am bored with the mild weather this winter. (I know, I'm sure you think me insane, but it's true...I like cold and snow)

Happy weekend.
