The whole shebang of last week in one post. Here goes. Breakfast on Monday was the last of this savory bread and fried eggs. Breakfast on Tuesday was out – I had a savory crepe with hash browns at Crepeville. Because Crepeville’s portions are awesomely massive I had leftovers for breakfast on Wednesday. Which I paired with two fried eggs. Thursday I made steel cut oats in the rice cooker (the crock pot was already occupied) for our whole family. I topped mine with a bunch of non-nut things (aka seeds galore) – including… Read more >

It’s so weird that we haven’t been back to LA since we left back in April. We’ve seen several of our so cal friends since but not all of them so we decided to pop in for a quick visit. Honestly, we’ve been trying to squeeze a weekend in since this past fall, but then all this (good) stuff was happening with Kyle’s business…and then the holidays came along…and you know how it goes… But we finally got this in the calendar and what a fun time it was! Now. As much as I adore… Read more >

I did a pretty good job of meal planning that last week of the year. First we finished off all the holiday leftovers we brought back from my parents’ house, including stuffing, roasted veggies, mashed potatoes, and lima bean casserole. One day, I jazzed it up and made a cheesy “gravy” sauce with nooch and water. And another day, I paired it with a salmon burger for some protein. Kyle took care of the rest of it. There was also extra shrimp and veggies from my parents’ holiday party so I pulled… Read more >

I go back and forth in terms of breakfast cravings – sweet or savory. I love quick breads (especially this banana bread), but when I want a savory breakfast I’m torn. For some weird reason, the idea of making a savory quick bread never occurred to me. Why not? There are veggie muffins and stratas and the likes, so why not a savory quick bread?!? Duh, right? I totally almost messed this guy up. I forgot the egg the first time around (fortunately before it went into the oven, but not before I had… Read more >

This is a small snack. The “before” photo is so clean. Let me tell you, persimmons make one hell of an “after” photo. Like a blood bath! Naps are complicated. When they happen, I’m on cloud 9. Lunch in peace and quiet. That’s nearly a whole bag of TJ’s lacinato kale by the way. Tossed with quinoa and coated in creamy broccoli soup. We put up our tree and hung our stockings. P loves all of it. He says “de” and points to all the things. He wants to communicate so badly. I… Read more >
