The Daily Eat: Baked Penne with Roasted Vegetables.


If I could eat pasta every single day of my life I would. It’s so versatile and I never get tired of it. I know it’s kind of a wide-spanning thing to focus on, but I promise you’ll love the variety of each every recipe I have planned for the next five days. So can I get a big boo-yah for Pasta Week?!

I love this recipe for Baked Penne with Roasted Vegetables because you can change up what kind of veggies you toss in according to what’s in season.

Half Pint.

Half Pint would be fabulous when used to serve someone breakfast in bed, having coffee with your guests, or maybe just as a reminder of kindergarten days gone by. So whimsical and fun!

Desk Tidy.

I’m crazy about Desk Tidy, designed by Daniel Black and Martin Blum. The porcelain desk accessory was inspired by people using regular coffee cups to hold their pencils. If you look closely you’ll see that the decorative “traditional” motif has office supplies hidden in it!

Wary Meyers.

I’d give almost anything to be sitting at this table with a big mug of coffee, sketching my little heart out. Or pouring through cookbooks. Or writing a letter. (Those wood floors! That wallpaper! That exposed brick!)

On the Rocks: Peanut Butter Cup Martini.


I think one of these Peanut Butter Cup martinis would be plenty to fill your sweet tooth. Seems like it would make a perfect dessert after a long day, too.

Ingredients:
– 2 oz Castries
– 1 oz Godiva Chocolate Liquor
– 1 oz Super Premium Vodka

Shake vigorously over ice and strain into a chilled martini glass. Optional: Line the Martini glass with chocolate syrup for additional effect.
