Matina
evening sunshine.
I am loving the weather in Vancouver right now! It's crazy how much the sun affects you... When it was rainy and grey, it always felt much better to just stay in and crawl up on the couch. Now that it's sunny late in the evening, I would rather enjoy the fresh air and go for a walk than just stay home. The laziness (for the most part) is getting packed away for now.

potatoes.
I love potatoes. I love fries, baked potatoes, mashed potatoes, poutine (especially poutine because it's mixed with my favourite food - CHEESE), gnocchi, hashbrowns, and the list goes on. I usually have potatoes in a few dishes during the week. Tonight, since I had some large baking potatoes, I decided to make fries. You can make this recipe with sweet potatoes, yam potatoes, or all three kinds of potatoes, or even just use the fingerling potatoes instead. All you to the potatoes: wash them, cut them, coat them and bake (click read more for recipe). Then you have some delicious crunchy potatoes.
spring vegetables.
I wanted to make some quinoa the other day, and usually I make the same dish each time. It is SO delicious - but I decided to try something different. I found this recipe on Bon Appetit. A quinoa and spring vegetable pilaf. I followed the recipe for the most part, but left out or added a few things. I didn't find it to be SUPER flavourful, so I added some feta cheese at the end and some roasted tomatoes which did the trick for me. It was a light and tasty meal.
