It was a rare and beautiful moment. I saw this as the recipe of the day, it sounded wonderful -- AND -- I knew I had all the ingredients on hand! I printed it and made it that night. I one-and-a-half timesed the amounts so there would be enough for my family, and perhaps a bit of leftovers for my lunch the next day. They devoured it and begged for more, complaining that I didn't make enough! Five stars all the way!

I'm a high school music teacher, turned elementary music teacher, who is also a mom. My evenings are busy -- I teach piano and voice lessons one evening a week, direct the youth choir at our church on another night, and sing with a professional chamber choir here in Pittsburgh on yet another night, so I'm always looking for quick-fix meals. I love to bake too, much to the delight of my daughters, but not my husband, who loves sweets, but is very health-conscious! It would be great to have a week of free time to make all the delicious recipes I find here on 'Zaar. Not sure who I'd find to help me eat them, but I'd do it anyway!
