Are you ready for another one of my earth-shattering public statements?
I find it completely unacceptable that lightly hitting your elbow against your pretty kitchen aid mixer should hurt THAT much. Ouch!
And result in a bruise.
Who in their right mind would call it a funny bone? Luckily, I had ‘Boo-Boo Ellie’ to help out.
No, you can’t see what ’Boo-Boo Ellie’ looks like.

YUM bacon! YUM quinoa! This is a keeper!
Oh… wow… This is going into the recipe file. How much does this make?
Doesn’t that look delicious. Lemon is way better!
They also call it a tickle bone. Still not right!
I love quinoa salads…definitely going to try this one.
And though I’m not a huge fan of pork…pork bacon is one thing I love.
This is gorgeous and looks delicious! I can’t wait to try it. I’m a huge fan of quinoa.
Hi Rachael – Quinoa is great for sure. Have you ever put it in chili? nom-nom
Yum, I love Quinoa! Usually I just go with tomato and basil in mine, but this looks great! I’ll have to try it sometime…
