Blissful Saturday

I love pasta!!!!! So since it was such a lovely Saturday and I had nothing else to do with myself I went grocery shopping. I bought ingredients to make a delicious pasta bake with spinach and chicken, and of course I bought some apples to make a dessert. : ) The pasta came out quite delicious but sadly the top need more cheese in my opinion...but my mother said it was enough. Today was a very relaxing day and reminded me of how much I love making food.
Here is what my pasta looked like, sorry I didn't take in pictures once it was dug into.

P.S.
Since my blog is also about knitting I thought I give a glimpse of my project that is currently a work in progress. It's my first time knitting with lace yarn so we shall see how it looks when I'm done.

OOO....OOO...COOKIES!!!!

Its Friday night and instead of going out and about this evening I decided to stay home and do my two favorite things knitting and baking!
I haven't baked in a while (since knitting consumes my life) and while browsing the internet I ran across a delicious recipe for oatmeal cookies with chocolate chips, pecans, and crasins. So of course that automatically meant that baking must commence!!
Here are some pictures of my baking adventure:



If you want to also enjoy these delicious cookies check out the recipe.
These are the perfect alternative for those that do not like raisins, like myself.

Cheers and good eats!!! : )
