Instagram Anyone?

I guess it's pretty obvious that I haven't been too into blogging lately. I have, however, really gotten into using Instagram. Follow me at rosemccarthy. Here's some recent foodie pics:
 

Glorious In-Ground Garden

One of the most awesome things about having a house - in my book anyway - is outdoor space. I'm not talking balcony space, which - don't get me wrong - was a great feature of our last two apartments, but it's not the same as having your own land.

Yesterday we put in a 4-ft.-by-4-ft. raised bed. It's filled with seeds and seedlings of three different tomatoes, four peppers, cilantro, dill, orange mint, basil, arugula, French breakfast radishes, and lemon cucumbers. I brought rosemary, oregano, lavender, and parsley in pots from our Arlington apartment. They're thriving. Hope the in-ground garden does too. I'll post status reports.

What We've Been Up To

Cappuccino with pear and blue cheese scone at Peregrine in our new 'hood

First grilling of the season on a brand new Weber: Feb. 25

The results of the first grill: chicken, feta, and spinach sausage with potatoes and red peppers (Greek salad wasn't grilled :)

Feb. 26: ribeyes with halloumi over arugula (garlicky carrots weren't grilled either)

This Is Awesome!
