I really hate the photos currently on my blogs front page and wish I'd saved a few natural light photos from the summer. Here's a trick that might help, though.

I make hummus at home and sometimes I throw in a roasted red pepper, which enhances the flavour, color and adds a nutritional punch.

I had a lovely neighbor from Lebanon for a number of years -- I still remember her bringing a bowl of hummous, still warm from the pressure-cooked chickpeas, across the street and her husband would always go to a special shop for the freshest pita bread... oh, yum! What a treat that was. Now I should try making it myself.
