Emporium Pies

I love pie. I'll take pie over cake any day and when I learned that Emporium Pies is opening a location in downtown McKinney I danced a little jig. Then I took these photos and promptly bought a slice of pie. It was delicious. Mmmmm. Pie.

Cooking with what we have

We've been making a bigger effort lately to not waste food and be more creative with what we have instead of running to the store so frequently. This led to a tasty breakfast when I realized we were out of bread for scrambled eggs and toast. What we did have were several roma tomatoes about to be past their peak. This led to roasting them in the oven with a little olive oil and parmesan cheese and then topping with poached eggs. 

Mt. Rainier

I just returned from one of the best vacations of my life. We spent 4 days hiking on Mt. Rainier and this video barely captures a fraction of the beauty I experienced.
