San Fran-iversary weekend

I realize this post is hardly timely.  We didn’t get back from the city until Monday evening and then I worked two nights in a row though…sooo…what can you do?  Truthfully, my weekend recaps are my own selfish way of documenting our memories forever and ever.  If others enjoy them, great!    So let’s back track to Saturday.  I was recovering from a few night shifts so we kept the day mellow.  I ate at odd times and didn’t get close to capturing everything I ate on film.  Did you know sleep deprivation can make… Read more >

Happy couple & happy goats weekend

Another weekend filled with outings and travel and showing off our little man!   Starting with a leisurely Friday. Since I finally polished off the last of the millionth loaf of banana bread I made, I decided to bake a new somethin’ somethin’.  More on the above [oatmeal caramel creation] later…   This is my new favorite meal.  It’s been on repeat, so don’t be surprised if you keep on seeing it. That’s an egg/avo combo on toasted Essential Baking Co bread with a side of veggies (tomatoes from my garden).   Look I finally… Read more >

Hot-urday

Last weekend’s (eek, super delayed post, this is from 2 weekends ago!!) al fresco was indoors because IT. IS. SO. HOT. I pretend like I’m upset about this, but in reality, my complaints are all big fat lies.  I love the sun.  Summer months are the sh!t.  But maybe I should back up.  I actually took pics of the whole day’s eats.  Well, almost.   I had banana bread with two eggs for breakfast.  We went to the co-op and the farmer’s market for grocery shopping, followed by a lunch date at Crepeville.   I… Read more >

Two meals with quinoa

As you may have guessed based on the fact that I’m STILL (eye roll) posting recipes that I made 99 years ago, I haven’t been cooking much lately.  Blah.  I don’t wanna talk about it.   Above: Salmon with quinoa and sliced tomatoes.  Below: Seitan & quinoa bowl with sriracha vegan aioli on a bed of garden greens (chard).    So guess what?  If you’re a vegetarian or vegan, you can totally swap the seitan for the fish in the first recipe.  And if you don’t dig seitan you can do fish in the second… Read more >

Five to nine weekend

My parents are remodeling their kitchen (slash living room slash dining room slash house slash annoying) so it’s a good thing it was gorgeous and sunny this weekend.    Because we had a birthday party for my dad!!  He’s 59 years young!  I’ll get to the party details later.   I have lots of photos of people from this weekend and I know that’s all you guys my sister wants to see anyway.  Food schmood right?  P disagrees.  He’s digging the solids.  We had a slow start with carrots, but bananas and avocado have been… Read more >
