Bitchin California Bowl

I don’t mean to offend anyone in any way, but well, this bowl is all about the sauce. The sauce was inspired by the “bitchin’ sauce” that my cousin Abby has been telling me about for months. She buys it from the farmers market in San Diego, CA and she LOVES it. You can read all about it here. Abby’s favorite is the cilantro chili flavor, so I decided to take that flavor and make my own Bitchin’ Sauce, which then turned into this pretty Bitchin’ California Bowl, which I am in love with!...

It’s officially pasta salad season. My dad would make his broccoli pasta salad at least once a week throughout the summer months, and it was always one of my favorite dinners.

It was just pasta tossed with cubes of cheddar cheese, broccoli, olive oil, salt, pepper, and handfuls of fresh basil from his garden. Ever since I can remember, my dad has had his gardens full of basil....

And he didn’t fly, he drove the twenty-fours from Rocky River, OH to Silverthorne, CO. And all because he got up on Saturday and decided my brother’s 1996 truck needed to get removed from his driveway, so he drove it out. Yes, he is insane....
