The main way I am inspired to cook is by looking through my cookbooks - my favorite being all the Barefoot Contessa books. Last night we made Cornish Hens with cornbread stuffing - thankfully Phuong did all the "gross" parts - like stuffing the cavity and cleaning it out. They turned out really good...the cornbread stuffing was really easy to make too.
Today I decided to work on using my Costco bag of limes and make a lime curd tart. I am proud of the end results, but making the lime curd takes a little time and not a good recipe to do with children. I feel like my whole kitchen was covered with lime juice and flour. Too bad I didn't get a picture of that...

Both look delicious and great presentation!
The hens look beautiful! Nice work. I'm sure the family was so blessed by all the yummy food. So how did the lime tart taste?
Wow...very impressive! I am inspired by Rachael Ray but she doesn't do much baking so maybe I should start watching the Barefoot Contessa.
Yummm! They look so scrumptious. I love Ina's recipe books too! Let me know if you need tasters next time. We'll be happy to drop whatever and come over!!!
