2 pints of grape tomatoes
3-4 zucchini
1 cup of black and green olives
Zest of one lemon
Juice of half a lemon
3 tbsp of capers (preferable salt packed)
Olive oil
2-3 tsps of dried thyme
8 chicken thighs
Salt and pepper
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
Mix all the ingredients (except the chicken) in a glass or ceramic dish. Get your hands nice and oily. Throw the chicken on top of the veggies skin side down, season, and pop in the oven for about 15 minutes. Give the dish a stir and flip over the chicken. Season again. Continue to bake for another 20-30 minutes. Close to the end, get impatient, sit on the floor in front of the oven and watch the skin get lovely and brown. (It was late, I was hungry and just a little bit drunk).
This creates lots of lovely saucy goodness as the cherry tomatoes bake down, so would be really nice served over top of a fresh flat pasta, with some baby potatoes, or with a fresh baguette to soak up the juices.
Mmmmm. I promise.

Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes.
I think I'm automatically attracted to a clean white bedroom, but in this case I love the use of the bright yellow. What a wonderful cheery way to wake up!
My little brother is a wicked musician. That kid can play anything. (Except the clarinet... he dropped that the first day.) He is also growing up so fast. And by that I mean he now weighs at least 50 pounds more than me and is at least 7 inches taller than me. Sigh. I remember when he was just a little pipsqueak.
I almost never by jewelery. Despite the fact that I love beautiful things, I simply cannot seem to reconcile my small pay check with the large purchase price for such a tiny little box. And name brands? Not my thing. That being said, the beauty of this stuff is undeniable, but I'd be just as likely to lust over it if it weren't Tiffany. In fact, if it weren't Tiffany, maybe I could actually afford it! Now, If I WERE the type to buy jewelery, one of these necklaces would be my next purchase. Simple, but eye catching.
