Flank Steak with Chimichurri Sauce

I got a sous vide immersion cooker for Christmas and I’ve been using it pretty regularly since.  I spent at least a year mocking people for posting about it (I used to regularly see the Will It Sous Vide? series on lifehacker.com and it annoyed me) but then a family friend brought theirs and we made ribs.  And they were amazing.  And I was sold.

Then There Were Four

Our family is growing! We welcomed our daughter into the world this week.  She was born on March 5 and weighed 6 lbs, 12 oz.  We’re so glad that she is happy and healthy.

Things are about to get downright crazy around here!

Our son is ecstatic and very excited to be a big brother.  I expect that to last at least 15 or 20 minutes, until he figures out that he’s not the center of attention all the time.
