Tomorrow my church St. Barnabus is having an ECW ( Episcopal Church Woman) meeting which is just an excuse for us girls to eat way too much and hang out. Food and talking are two of my favorite things! We were all asked to either bring dessert or salad. After searching the recipe archives of
+Michelle Tam (nomnompaleo) I found a recipe that looked perfect. Warm brussel sprout slaw with tangy citrus dressing is whats on the menu. Being a type A insane person who loves perfection, I decided to practice making the salad tonight. Totally worth it...the salad was so yummy. First I chopped up about 1 1/2 lbs of brussel sprouts. I peeled off several leaves to make brussel sprout chips later.
Then I mixed the chopped sprouts with olive oil and salt, then threw the concoction into the oven at 450 degrees for 15 minutes.

Even if no one eats my concoction, I know that I will happily chomp away. Cooking and watching
+Netflix makes for a great Friday night at the Larizza household. In celebration of finishing another semester of graduate school I will be going to bed early tonight and will probably retire early to bed for several weeks. I really love sleep! Hope everyone has a fantastic night :).
