I borrowed this post series idea from The Glamourous Grad Student's Weekend Reads I look forward to them each week because they come from blogs that I don't usually read and often give useful insights/ advice and all that jazz.
Here are my reads for the week:

what a great bunch of reading! i can't miss the big girl blog. this "men every big girl will meet" series is pure gold. and that chickpea pasta looks mighty good. i love chickpeas in anything and am hookedon hummus!
hope your vday was/is kickin'!
My Vday went well, I hung out with a friend and went to the movies. I love chickpeas,too! Have you tried the roasted ones?
no!! sounds like something i would love, though.
Yess.. so good!! I just take a can of chickpeas, drain em salt em (i add a bit of cumin and cinnamon, too) Toss em in a little bit of peanut oil (1 teaspoon not tablespoon) and pop em in a fry pan and do not touch! Let them saute for 7-10 minutes on med on one side and then run a serving spoon through to flip em then saute for another 5-8 minutes. You will have a soft/crunchy mixture that I love!
I must limit myself to half a cup because I can kill a whole can in a sitting and a cup is alot of cals and I think a whole can is a massive calorie attack just considering the chickpeas alone and not accounting for oil.
