My New Favorite Food - BAKED YAM FRIES

Epicure's Baked Yam Fries
Make this popular pub favourite at home. Baking instead of frying will save you over 500 calories, 52 g fat and 580 mg sodium per serving! Try dipping in prepared Epicure’s Curry Dip.

Ingredients
4 yams, peeled
1 Tbsp (15 ml) vegetable oil
1–3 tsp (5–15 ml) Epicure’s Jamaican Jerk Seasoning
Epicure’s Sea Salt, to taste
Epicure’s Black Pepper, to taste
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 425° F (220° C).
2. Slice yams into thin, even strips. Combine with oil and Epicure’s
Jamaican Jerk Seasoning.
3. Arrange in a single layer on Epicure’s Parchment-lined baking
sheet. Season with Epicure’s Sea Salt and Epicure’s Pepper.
4. Bake, turning several times, for 25–30 minutes, or until fries are
crisp and slightly browned.

Scrapbooking

I think I am finally going to get back to my old scrapbooking hobby. I have kind of vanished from the scrapbook world for about a year with exception of a recent Circle Journal Swap which I started so I could maybe get my scrapbooking mojo back. This week I tackled the spare bedroom and turned it back into its former self, my scrapbooking room. It is a nice warm and cozy 'yellow' room - bright and cheerful looking over the back yard. I can't wait to get in there and create and invite some scrapbooking gals over in the near future.

LAVISH

I am excited to be hosting a LAVISH party this evening. It is all about fashion, LAVISH has a gorgeous line of handbags, jewelry, watches, pashminas and sunglasses. Should be a great time with good friends and good ol' girly fun!
