Quinoa

Doesn't this recipe look good? Quinoa is quickly becoming one of my favorite foods. And then I read this interesting article, which made it even more appealing. I think I'll have to try the quinoa pudding!

This morning, Riley decided that she wasn't going to eat the scrambled egg yolk with mushrooms and creme fraiche ... at least not with a spoon.
