I love Indian food. The spicy, flavorful dishes are some of my favorites to replicate at home and if they are easy to make than I like them even more. This Indian Cilantro Tomato Chicken from The Wanderlust Kitchen is one of my new favorites, in fact I am making it again today. You can whip this dish up in under an hour, serve it with rice and maybe even naan bread and you have a takeaway meal at home.

Pumpkin is my absolute favorite thing to eat; pumpkin pasta, cake, pie, and bread to name just of few of the items that are on rotation at my house this time of year. I have several “favorite” recipes but I am always looking for more and when Deb from The Smitten Kitchen posted this pumpkin bread yesterday I whipped up a loaf straight away. It is now my new favorite pumpkin bread.
We are going to a dinner party this weekend and I am bringing a chocolate dessert tray. These Fudgy Cocoa Brownies will definitely be on it!

Today is the 90th birthday of one of the most beloved characters ever written about, Winnie the Pooh. I remember when I was little wishing that I lived in the Hundred Acre Woods with those adorable little animals. Happy 90th Birthday Winnie the Pooh! By the way, to celebrate Pooh’s birthday there is a new character coming out, a penguin, which you can read about it HERE.

This stunning book by female photographer Inge Morath is on my list for Christmas.
I love this post The Unexpected Gift from Lisa Leonard.
Did you read, see, eat, make or find any interesting things this week? If so, please share. I hope that you have a happy, safe weekend.

I always enjoy David Lebovitz's recipes and musings about life in Paris, and his post about Cold Toast this week was a real delight. He always has gorgeous photos, too.
