I am my mothers daughter!

Well those of you that know me at all would never disagree with this statement...or that i am my fathers daughter! Lets face it i got the best of 2 worlds!!!! But the title is meant to talk about my obsession with "my" kitchen...I share it with my roommates of course...but I have been deamed the Kitchen Natzi...or the kitchen lady.
I think this comes from my mother, i come from a very organzied for the most part kitchen and the way things are placed is in order of their use and how much we will be using them etc. it is also fairly clutter free!

Also my roommates have called me mom this would come to no suprise to most of you! I spent a lot of time cooking this last week...b/c i wanted to! Truth be told I love cookin' and bakin'! I have made in my opinion some pretty nummy dinners and like my mother I have to include pictures of what i've cooked!!

Yummy pull apart pasta...this was served with french baggett and dipping oil, and a white wine!!
A nummy cake...it's fun-fetti...i know lame it's from a box...but it was last minute and it's my roommates favorite!!!!!
This was my dinner tonight...it's very health it's a chicken salad made with yogurt!!!! So summer-e and fresh...I had this with some pita bread and hummus!!!!

And to think with all this cookin' and organizin' no one's snatched up this catch yet ;) ... I mean seriously!!

**Note: Not pictured is a yummy beef skillet dish i made, as well as nummy salads with seasoned chicken that me and my roommate cooked up last night...okay well there's a picture but we may have ate our dinner in our underwear and our hair in towels and well we'll keep this sight G rated for now!**

P.S. Can you believe it thats twice in one week!...oh and does anyone know how to make it not a link when you cut and paste that first part!?!?!
