Notes

Hi all,
Thanks for bearing with my absence.  Our house renovation is finally done and we are putting everything back together, including my kitchen.  I couldn't wait to get back to cooking and since the weather here in New Jersey has been chilly, I decided to start out with something warm and comforting.
