A Baby, A Hike & Chick Peas

Posted on May 10, 2012. Filed under: Uncategorized |

I got to meet the cutest little baby this weekend in Missoula, MT.

So cute!!!

Adorable, right!? This is Josie, she is TK’s baby and I had the best weekend hanging out with her and her parents. The best part is that I’ll see them here in D.C. again in August!

We also did a quick hike that is just a short walk from their house. We walked for maybe 20 minutes, but it was a steep incline. We saw pretty flowers along the way.

And enjoyed the beautiful view of the mountains surrounding Missoula.

It was such a fun visit – thanks TK, Matt and Josie for having me for the weekend! (I took like two photos with my real camera and all this with the blackberry – hence the crappy quality)

On a completely separate note, I’m a huge fan of chick peas, put them in a salad or just plain, I will eat them up. I saw this recipe for baked chick pea tacos from Mama Pea and decided to try to make them. Although, I didn’t make tacos, I just made them for a side dish. It’s super easy to make and I had all ingredients for the marinade already. I think I overcooked them by about 10 minutes – they were a little dry, but I think the flavor was still good. I’ll try them again and bake them for less time!
