Holy Yummy!
I was at Whole Foods today (which I don't frequent b/c their prices are so high) and I saw that they were selling a ready-made Orzo w/ Spinach and Feta salad. Instead of paying $7.99(!!) a pound, I bought the ingredients and made it myself. Yum Yum!! Anyone else make anything good recently?? I've been cooking up a storm while at home (and trying to find a new job)! 
Re: Holy Yummy!
I agree that sometimes buying the ingredients yourself is more cost effective than buying it already prepared.
As for what I've made recently, I had a Food Network Chef dinner Saturday and taught a Chinese Steamed Buns class yesterday. Both events with recipes & pics are reflected in my food blog (link below).
Wow Joelen, you've made some amazing things! I'm certainly NOT a cook, so putting together said recipe above was a major feat! lol I'm going to aspire to try some of the recipe's you have listed
Thanks for the inspiration!
Whole foods is YUMMY!! but I rarely go there due to their prices! --why does good/healthy food have to be so $$$ and the other crap is so cheap?
anyway-I love to cook and when looking for recipies I use allrecipies.com they have amazing stuff on there and its great to see all the reviews/suggestions before you make the dish.
