Week of March 1

Welcome to March! In true Massachusetts fashion, we're expecting a foot of snow tomorrow. Sigh. I just placed my vegetable seed order so I'm thinking spring while sitting in front of a roaring fire in our wood stove.

Last week was crazy busy, so I'm looking forward to taking a breath or two this week. As usual, I'm trying out some new recipes while making some old favorites.

Fancy tacos (I bought a whole tenderloin on sale - $7/pound, wow! So we're using the tenderloin "chain" to make tacos tonight - filet mignon tacos? Why not!)

Cilantro slaw
