Friday Favorites from Ted Talks, A Flavor Journal, Celebrations at Home, Foodtasia,

January 27, 2019 By Elizabeth@ Pine Cones and Acorns 5 Comments

Happy Friday! It’s been a wild weekend all over the country, between the weather and work I am ready for the weekend. I hope you enjoy my finds this week. 

Interesting Food

Comfort food is the perfect food on a weekend and this Bacon Cheddar Risotto from A Flavor Journal  looks perfect. 

Image Celebrations at Home

Of course a big bowl Fiesta Chili from Celebrations at Home would warm your belly on a cold day as well. 

Image Cooking for Keeps

Or how about some Minestrone Soup with Chicken Meatballs from Cooking for Keeps?

Image Foodtasia

My favorite comfort food is past and I cannot wait to make this Creamy Butternut Squash Pasta with Bacon and Sage from Foodtasia.

If you like butternut squash and pasta you might like this Cheesy Butternut Squash Sauce from Simply Whisked.

Image Eating European

And for something a little healthy, French Salad with Brie and Pears from Eating European.

Baileys Irish Cream Rice Pudding is easy and delicious, especially if you start with leftover rice!

    Yep..Friday already and it has been a week! That squat pasta is perfect for a Friday night at home in socks and pjs eating on the sofa. Paris by the Book took me awhile to get into it but then a book Ive thought about often since finishing it. Always enjoy your Friday tips!

    I printed two of the recipes, pulled off the two articles onto my desktop to read later that look so interesting, made a note of one of the books for the library, and wished so much I could get that striped shirt as I am so partial to those! Lots of good stuff here!

    The rice pudding sounds good.

    I just finished Erebus by Michael Palin, telling the story of the Erebus and the Terror ships of the 19th century and their polar journeys.

    Loving these suggestions – the comfort food…yum. Those cookie cutters need to get in my cart, and I'm reading about how to feel less overwhelmed by unimportant things. Thanks, friend, for your thoughtful lovely curation of things I care about. 🙂

A couple of weeks ago, for the first time ever, I A couple of weeks ago, for the first time ever, I planted bare root peonies. I am outside every morning checking on their progress. I fear that two of them are not going to make it because I do not see anything but one just popped above the ground!
