Crista's Kitchen Creations: Pumpkin Dessert out the wahzoo!
http://islifeaconundrum.blogspot.com/2009/11/pumpkin-dessert-out-wahzoo.html
Sunday, November 29, 2009. Pumpkin Dessert out the wahzoo! I picked out a very tasty looking pumpkin dessert recipe to try out for Thanksgiving. Wellthat would have been a great plan, but in the midst of packing all the other dishes I took to thanksgiving, I somehow forgot to pull this one out of the fridge. So now I have two 9"x13" pans of pumpkiny goodness in the fridge. They will most certainly be going to work with me tomorrow for my co-workers to enjoy! 1 can (15 oz) pumpkin (not pumpkin pie mix).

Crista's Kitchen Creations: No-Cook Fast Supper
http://islifeaconundrum.blogspot.com/2009/05/no-cook-fast-supper.html
Sunday, May 31, 2009. My new favorite cook book is the Cooking Light Super Fast Suppers cookbook. I'm sure you will soon come to find a lot of recipes from this cookbook on my blog, as everything is fast, healthy, and looks delicious. The first recipe I tried came out great, and will be a staple for summer time eating in our house. 5 cups baked tortilla chips (broken in to bite-sized pizza). 1/2 cup shredded low fat cheddar cheese. 1 (15 oz.) can pinto beans, rinsed and drained. 1 large lime, quartered.

Crista's Kitchen Creations: Back in the day...
http://islifeaconundrum.blogspot.com/2009/05/back-in-day.html
Sunday, May 31, 2009. Back in the day. Back in the day of wonderful college years. I spent a summer waitressing. At a wonderful little Mexican. Restaurant called Tortilla Flat. Unfortunately. The restaurant is no longer there, but the delicious food lives on! My favorite dish on the menu was Chipotle. Chicken with Spinach in Cream Sauce served over rice. While this recipe isn't exactly how it was made at the restaurant, it tastes almost identical! 1 (7 ounce) can chipotle. 10 ounces baby spinach, rinsed.

Monday, June 1, 2009. This past Sunday, my friend Sara and I made plans to watch the MTV Movie Awards. We could basically care less about the awards, we were watching just to see the teaser trailer of the next movie in the Twilight saga, called New Moon. The trailer, complete with vampires, werewolves, and hot steamy kisses was awesome! Now we just have to wait until November to see the movie. So for dinner I tried out another Cooking Light Superfast. Supper recipe, and it was delish. Just like mommy, Ch...
