good friends, good food

This post is brought to you by Pioneer Woman. No, she's not paying me, but I am in love with her and am happy to send you her way if you're looking for some delicious, easy-enough, recipes.

Kristi let me borrow her cookbook and I ended up loving everything I made from it. It seemed like the only way she was going to get the cookbook back was if she came over and got it. : ) So it was only right to invite them over to try one of the delicious recipes and let her leave with the cookbook... I made her shrimp penne with a tomato cream sauce, in case you were wondering.

This is the only evidence that we had friends over last night, but I think it's more than enough cuteness to do the trick.

It was a great night with great friends. And like I always seem to say after a night like this, we really need to do them more often!!
