French Yogurt and Olive Oil Cake

I've wanted to make an olive oil cake for a while now, and I liked the sound of this one. I bet Sarah would have loved to make this when she lived in Paris, and had all that amazing French yogurt!

I made this in a pan the recipe didn't recommend, which is why it is partially burnt - I decided to make up my own temperature and timing. Otherwise, this is a great and simple cake, and the lemon rind really made a difference!

Butter Roasted Carrots

This isn't really much of a recipe, but I am adding it to the blog.  This proves that adding butter makes everything better.  Also, T loves these.

Spicy Watermelon Salad

This salad from Sunset, is delicious and perfect for a hot day/evening during this hot summer.  I liked the approach to pickling/mellowing the onions and will try making them to add to other dishes.  I didn't add feta this time, but grilled some Halloumi to go with it.  So tasty!
