Since I've been so terrible about blogging I figured I'd try to at least post my dinners. Nick and I are trying to be healthier and cook every night instead of eating out. Tonight I prepped chicken quarters by separating them and then adding, garlic, salt, pepper and sprigs of rosemary. I let it come to room temp while I took Emmy for a run. By the time I came back, Nick was ready to go for a second run with her. I stuck them in the oven and stir fried some Sweet Pea greens and made some garlic pasta. Yummy!

I used a heavy hand with the salt, but other than that it was moist and the rosemary gave it great flavor.
