Roasted Cauliflower Soup

I have been attempting to vary my palate and enjoy new/different vegetables that I think I don't like :) Cauliflower was next on my list. It scares me. It looks kind of like moldy broccoli ;) So I bought purple cauliflower, which is awesome b/c it is even better than regular cauliflower, has a lot of the same great stuff as blueberries. And it looks nicer ;) Roasted Cauliflower Soup 10c cauli florets (I just used one head of cauli) Sliced onion (I am an onion whore so I used one vidalia and 2 small purples) Two garlic cloves (I used jarred minced and just threw a liberal amount in) 2T evoo 2 cans 14.5oz ea chic broth (I used 4C chicken broth and didn't use extra water) 1bay leaf 1t thyme 1C half n half (i used 1C skim milk) 1t salt 1t pepper Oven to 400 Toss cauli onion garlic w/ evoo Roast 30m In pan combine cauli mix, broth,1Cwater bay leaf and.

Yogurt Machine!

I bought a yogurt machine. I'm going to make breastmilk yogurt for Lijee. First I need to try it out on cow's milk. So I have a batch in there right now. Fresh milk from our local dairy, and a yogurt starter of organic whole milk yogurt from grass-fed cows. Keith is quite excited. I shall let you know how it turns out, and how my breastmilk yogurt turns out. Maybe pics even ;)
