Items from the kitchen

Weird things that happened in my kitchen yesterday:

1. I actually tried to make ratatouille. I even roasted the veggies before putting them all together with the tomatoes.

I blame Kayla and Matthew.

2. After reading a cooking magazine at the saloon a few days ago, and vaguely remembering a recommendation, I tried swirling some peanut butter on top of a pan of brownies. Then a few dashes of some kosher salt. Based on the feedback from the eaters of the brownies this evening, I think it worked.

I blame Rachel Ray.

3. I found a spatula hiding in the cabinet below the counter where there's a container that holds things like wooden spoons and spatulas.

I blame the bear.
