Things in my kitchen queue

• Milk punch — How could I not love an alcoholic beverage made with milk? If I was allergic to dairy, as a friend is, I would probably turn suicidal. Colin would enjoy this one as well since it has bourbon. However, I may have to wait a while for my taste for sweet milk drinks to come back—two weeks ago I puked for 9 hours from a stomach bug, unfortunately right after drinking an iced chai. I'm still slightly gagging at the thought of the taste.
• Spaghetti with chickpeas — I've discovered I'm a big fan of chickpeas and everything thrown into this sauce makes it sound super good. And healthy. I guess that's a plus.
• Raspberry limeaid slushies — Because I like to pretend it's summer when it's really 23 degrees outside.
• Porch swing — See above.
• Blue cheese and red potato tart — Cheese and potatoes...sounds good to me. As long as I don't tell Colin it has blue cheese, he'll eat it.
• Cannoli cupcakes — Um, do you know about my love for cannolis? Thank goodness there is an excellent Italian bakery near my apartment if I ever need a fix.
