New recipes are screaming at me!

I am the type of person who only sees black and white.  There are no gray areas in my life.  It's either yes or no, hot or cold, right or left . . . you get the point.  So obviously I have fallen into a meal rountine that consist of the same menu every week.  I am getting outside of my box.  I made baked ziti Thursday. 

I had never tasted baked ziti.  In fact, when I told my parents (while visiting them for supper) what I was going to make for supper, they looked at me like I was speaking Chinese.  Apparently I was speaking Italian so no wonder they were confused.  I have to say, I struck gold with this recipe.  It's easy, it's tasty, and we've had enough leftover to munch on for lunch the next day.  Not a bad attempt. 

I also tried an artichoke dip that I am the only fan of in my household.  That's okay because I'm obsessed with it, and so there's more for me.  After two successes, new recipes are screaming at me.
