And the Winner Is...

#2, Tangled Noodle!

"I would love to try the Original Blend plus the basil, oregano, cilantro and dill. I love soupy-type of dishes over rice so I would use the basil and oregano with cannellini, zukes and tomatoes (among other things) to create a simple cassoulet-type dish. Now I'm hungry . . .

Congratulations! Shoot me an email at bobcooksstuff@gmail.com with your info and we'll get your herbs right out to you. I can't wait to see what you do with them.

Sorry about missing all my posting this weekend, but I've been wicked busy and haven't had much time to be on the computer. But, I did make this: It's braised chicken chunks, broccoli, cauliflower, cheese, garlic, olive oil and basil wrapped in pizza dough. Instead of doing it like a calzone I baked it in an oiled loaf pan. It was pretty good, it got all kinds of crispy edges. Anyway, I'll make up for the lack of posting on Wednesday. I'll post about the cupcakes I made this weekend. Mmmm, lemony.

  11. Van Santos: Heh, no real recipe I'm afraid. I just layered all the stuff onto the rolled out dough, wrapped the dough around it, pinched it closed and dropped it seam down into a loaf pan that I had rubbed with a little olive oil. Then baked at 425, I think.

    Things have been going well, thanks. All the business is good. :)
