My highlights: week 5

This week went by bleepin’ FAST.  [Side note: I have to get my swearing in check now that P understands everything I’m saying!!  Words are now real things with meaning.  Talk about a reality check.] Last weekend was a snooze with that lame Super Bowl, although I did grab brunch at Cafe Bernardo with a former co-worker.   I brought P (with his eggs and such in a tupperware) and he was the perfect gentleman – minimal puffs and banana bits made their way to the floor (although I always clean that stuff up at… Read more >

This is the rainbow lunch mish mash that I heaped on my plate Saturday.   On the bottom is a cauliflower “pizza crust” which is topped with cabbage slaw with home-made mayo + lemon caper dressing, avocado, and nutritional yeast.

Brussels before and after.  I used this recipe and it’s my new favorite way to eat ze sprouts.  For the record, I’m not a picky one with the cruciferous category (I love all my greens in sickness and in health), but Kyle is and he loved them too…so if that’s any indication of the yum factor, there you go. omgomgomgomgomg [fingers crossed] You all know about that whole… Read more >
