I’m washing my “blogger hands” of August! I had a great month with Ben, Sam, and Will though! Since they are my everything I’d consider August a complete success!
As far as my eating went, I’m washing my hands of that too for August. I’m ready for September! Whenever I eat cauliflower I wonder if it’s really all that healthy because it’s not dark green, ruby red, deep purple, or jack-o-lantern orange. Generally, it’s a white vegetable. I hardly ever feature it on this blog because it’s hard to make it pretty in pictures. So when I saw this “Carnival Cauliflower” I had to buy it! I swear it tasted better and I’m sure it’s more healthy than the white stuff!Nothing says healthy and comforting like a plateful of oven roasted vegetables!

I am loving the vibrancy of this dish.. and all the flavour too! The tomato chipotle vinaigrette sounds especially amazing.
Thank you, Thalia! It was just one of those simple dishes that ended up being kind of pretty too!
