Tuesday July 20th, 2010 04:40 How To Make Fun & Flirty French Onion Soup

STEP 1: Tell husband you feel sick. Ask for soup. Expect canned chicken noodle … gasp in shock and love as he makes preparations for homemade French Onion Soup.

STEP 2: Collect all your recipe item needs, the most important being your husband {since he does most/all of the actual cooking}. Put on your flirty apron because if you can’t be helpful in the kitchen, you can at least look cute for your handsome, chef-of-a-husband.

INGREDIENTS:
1/3 cup olive oil
6–7 large onions
4 large cloves garlic, crushed
Sea salt
Black pepper
Crushed red pepper
3 tablespoons flour
8 cups low sodium beef broth
1/3 cup rose wine
1/3 cup Worcestershire sauce
1 cup water
1/2 teaspoon thyme
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1 bay leaf
French loaf
Gruyere
Smoked Mozzarella

STEP 3: Normally, when it comes to Frank, I believe sharing is caring … HOWEVER, do not share onions with your puggy precious {or any doggie pal for that matter}! Onions are bad. BAD. Deadly. BAD. No onions for Frankers. So instead, let’s include Frank in other ways, i.e. dressing him up in our adorable little apron. Then share a safe treat like carrots.

STEP 4: Assist husband in everything. Smile. Take deep breaths and inhale the yummy cooking goodness.

STEP 5: Eat, savor, sip … feel better. Feel the yummy soup make your throat feel better. Curl up on the couch with M, Frank, NCIS and the soup. Oh, yumm-o.

RECIPE: Heat oil medium-low in a large bottomed stock pot. Slice onions and add to oil and crushed garlic. Stir occasionally until onions soften. (Be careful not to fry the onions allowing them to crisp or burn.) Add salt, fresh ground black pepper, and crushed red pepper to taste. Stir; mixing the spices evenly throughout the onions and garlic. Add flour and stir; cook an additional 2 minutes. Add beef broth, wine, and Worcestershire sauce. Raise heat to medium-high until soup boils. Add water, thyme, oregano, and bay leaf; reduce heat to low. Cover and allow to simmer for 30–35 minutes. In bowls, place toasted French bread topped with a mixture of shredded Gruyere and smoked Mozzarella. Add onion soup and top with additional cheese if desired. {Serves 10} {PS>Created by my husband/Enjoy!!}

… and some days you’re the hydrant.
Being sick sucks.
But at least I have Frank to cuddle with.

Thursday July 15th, 2010 05:22 Do I Look Older? Wiser? … Am I an Adult Now?

Probably not. I don’t think adults eat cupcakes for breakfast.

Frank supports my bad habits though. Yum!
My birthday was filled with all the best things of life,
brightly-colored presents, cake, and drinks a-flowing.
{Thanks to everyone for all the heart-felt well-wishes!}

Maybe aging isn’t so bad,
but I stop counting after 30 …
