Hummus and Ruffled Flowers


 As I sat here last evening with my sick kiddos, I decided to make some ruffled flowers.  I love making these flowers and they are so easy! 


 This morning I decided to make some hummus.  I made a batch for my family.  They usually devour it!  They devour everything though!
 I love the Barefoot Contessa and have always used her hummus recipe.
 Having my food processor makes everything easier!
 I made a special batch for one of my boys best buddies Jake. Jake broke his leg this weekend.  I hope he likes the hummus.  He is such a sweet boy and is now stuck on the couch for the rest of the summer:(

    I just left you a LONG comment on your sampler post! Adorable! Hope everyone is feeling better & no more Popcorn for your house! Nothing worse than pukie kids... well wait yes there is! Pukie Parents!!!! Love your flowers! Not so much the hummus. I just can't do that texture. So double the flowers & hold the hummus. I'm so glad you had a good vacation. HUGS! Charlene

    I love those flowers, your version is very pretty. I've tried those myself and found them to be fun but time-consuming. Your hummus looks awfully good too! I want to thank you for visiting my blog and taking the time to leave a comment. Now I can drink my coffee and spend some time here reading your older posts. Fun!

    I love Ina Garten too! (but don't you wonder why her parents would name her that???:))
    Can't say I'm wild about hummus tho...and poor Jake. I had to spend the summer inside once when I was a teenager and it was tough!

    I LOVE hummus, and Ina!!! How beautiful are your flowers??!! I need to learn to make them! I hope your family is feeling better. I would rather be sick than have my kids be ill.

    I love chickpeas, no matter what you do to them! Especially in Indian food.
    Hey summer is coming....and hummus is a great treat to serve now.
