2. crab quesedillas and fresh guacamole
little japanese desserts
3. adorable, individually packaged japanese desserts
baked cheesy pasta, with shallots and goat cheese
4. baked cheesy pasta,

(from the time we had dinner without our table)
pumpkin bars
5. mini pumpkin bars
mushroom risotto
6. shitake and cremini mushroom risotto
(and grilled asparagus)
mondo cupcakes
7. extra large cupcakes, with homemade chocolate ganache

Needless to say, I have been eating well. Fortunately, these are all things I've had over the past month, rather than the past week (which would not be unusual). I love my apartment. I love that all of my roommates and I enjoy cooking and baking and eating. We love the farmers' market and we love cooking with wonderful, fresh ingredients. And we have no fear of carbs (clearly). Starving college student? What's that?

PS- Please excuse the bad lighting in a lot of the photos... our kitchen may be fully functional, but our lighting can be pretty terrible.

    Thank you for making me hungry at 9 am!! I wish I could say I cooked meals like that in college, but alas, mine were MUCH less spectacular. I am definitely going to have to try some of these dishes soon!! :)

    Yum! I love all those things - but that pesto is singing to me ...and to think when I was in college we ate Ramen noodles, which my children now call salty soup.
