A Quick Lunch on All Saints Day--Soup and Croutons
Today is All Saints Day in France, which means that almost everything is closed in Strasbourg. Desperate for lunch, I scanned my shelves. All I found that was lunch-like and would only take a few minutes to prepare was a box of butternut squash soup and a chunk of day-old bread. So, I decided to heat up the soup and make some homemade croutons. I learned that homemade croutons are one of the easiest ways to make a non-homemade dish look homemade back in college while visiting a friend's sister on spring break in Whistler, Canada. She made the yummiest garlic-herb croutons to add to a very simple salad. Now I'm a salad person to the core, but I was ready to ditch the lettuce and just munch on the croutons as a snack!
Since then, I've played with making croutons. I like to make mine in the oven, mostly because I don't have to babysit them like when I make them on the stovetop. All it takes is some bread, any bread, (cut into chunks), olive oil, and the seasonings of your choice. Today I used the leftover pain de campagne (a local wheat-based loaf), olive oil, and simple salt and pepper. Then I put them on a baking sheet and baked at 400 degrees for about 15 minutes, checking on them a couple of times to shake and turn them over so that they became a nice golden brown. Often I chop up some garlic and add it in, but I was in too much of a hurry today. Feel free to add whatever herbs from your pantry you'd like!

Hello Mindy, THank you for stopping at my blog. Yes, if you live in Starsbourg, France you will find "Fromage Blanc", which you will use when my recipe calls for "cream cheese".

Hi Mindy,
Thanks for friending me on Foodbuzz. I was looking on your blog for your email address, but I couldn't find it. I LOVE your list of stained cookbooks and I have 2 of the same ones REALLY stained - Madhur Jaffrey and Penelope Casas. I love them both to pieces.
That's so cool that you're in Strasbourg for the year. Enjoy!
Hi Sue! And I tried to find you back, but your profile isn't enabled and I don't think you go by Sue on Foodbuzz, so I don't know where you are!
I really love Penelope Casas. I lived in Spain for a year after college as an au pair, and her books are so authentic to what I learned from the family I lived with.
As for the Madhur Jaffrey, I love it, but it can be so time consuming. I've been playing with her recipes to make them crockpot friendly, and so far a couple of them have worked!
Mindy,
I left you a note on Foodbuzz. Somebody in France must not like me. When you click on Sue in my comment, it doesn't take you to my blog profile page? Visit me anytime at http://foodnetworkmusings.

I also found Penelope Casas after we'd lived in Spain for 3 years. And, yes, her recipes are really Spanish. I love her.
Madhur is the best, too, but yeah, very time consuming.
I will email you the recipe, I have been hesitant to post the exact ones, unless someone requests...send me email elizabeth@cookappeal.com, I thought I had yours, and I love soup! -E

Greatest Home Washing Services
It never does not work out, you've taken every step to make sure your mattress is usually well guarded from untimely spills and stains, and then the inevitable occurs: your doggie jumps up on the bed while you are stripping sheets, or your child drags the mattress protector out of place and spills his bottle. If you avoid think its fair to pay these people for what they do, then Avoid DO IT! From my experience شركة تنظيف قصور بالرياض most companies don't make a list of what's getting included and what's not really included in the move-out washing program and I acquired to move over each of my worried products to consult them. First cleans are also even more costly, as cleaners need to determine how long they'll spend in a home, and if there are any rooms which require extra work - for example a family bathroom or large play area.
I have always been a best to bottom, hands & knees cleaner, who is certainly not really bonded or covered by insurance so I charge around $15-$20 human resources based on how very much function is certainly really needed. ارقام صيانة مكيفات سبليت بالرياض Becuase $400.00 was as well very much for me, I do not really wish her to skimp her worth for my spending budget, therefore I informed her to just clean the kitchen, one bathroom, the hall and the livingroom.
You might also discover that open public areas, like the kitchen and visitor bathroom, require washing even more frequently than personal areas, such as bed rooms. Hardly a living income; noises like low competent function to me. Carpentry تنظيف خزان الماء الارضي (allow only IT consulting) at $25/hr is definitely merely not really great business feeling. I consider to lunchtime, provide reward, and allow them understand they are valued I have always been impaired on a limited income.
She started at $10/hr she was with me for 13 years and was at $20/hr plus a tip or more if it was a hard job (and often moments I worked well or structured best along with her) She became a component of our family members and we became component شركة تنظيف منازل بالرياض of hers. This is definitely also why I charge what I do. If you're using all their stuff, it appears much less professional, it contradicts the very idea of getting "self-employed," and it will not really advantage a higher fee.
I've received responses from several close friends after a clean that the home appeared "amazing" and was "extremely clean" - all thanks to MHC. No longer overcommit and believe you're going شركة تنظيف مسابح بالرياض to do your whole apartment in one afternoon, or the whole house in a single day. Therefore, today I'm up to 6 hours of washing. I possess been washing home homes for 18 years right now.
