This isn’t my recipe, so I’m just going to link to it. This will go into my regular rotation. Curried Ground Turkey With Potatoes. My differences: coconut oil instead of vegetable oil, sweet potato instead of yukon gold, and at the advice of Lydia, way more volume of spices than listed. I added some curry [...]

She’s getting better. The last time she made a salad, I helped her by giving her my formula for salad: greens, a nut, a fruit, a cheese (except for hers) and a vinaigrette. She made dinner tonight–a salad, she exclaimed! She said she wanted to make a coconut salad. Fine with me. She remembered my [...]

Tonight I made pizza for dinner. It has been awhile, and I still have bread flour. Pizza is easy, but requires many bigger appliances. I used two pans since I made sausage, the VitaMix to puree the tomatoes for the sauce, the big bucket for raising the dough, the food processor to both make the [...]

I had to go back to Jay’s daycare this morning because that thing I kept thinking that I was forgetting all morning at home and couldn’t think what it was turned out to be his blanket and pillow. I went back home, got it, went back to his preschool, which is fine because I also [...]

I found this via a LJ comment. I haven’t done the search to see if this is really what pops up. I’m feeling so terrible and run down the last two days. The good part about it is that I relaxed a little and played some Fable II, a game that I had abandoned awhile [...]

I haven’t posted about my meals as much as I intended. Sorry. Perhaps because I find pizza more of an easy meal than an interesting meal, even if it is homemade and might I add Penzey’s pizza seasoning which I use in my sauce is the best ever. Tonight’s dinner is kefta, served with tzatziki [...]

I’m having a hard time adding things here because it just isn’t interesting. That’s because my day isn’t interesting. My life is just house, kids, house, kids, house, kids, taxi service, kids, sometimes my husband. I’m tiring of it. I want to travel somewhere interesting. I want to take my camera with me. I want [...]

Topic: Cooking I’ve been so lax about planning weekly meals, it is crazy. I actually found the energy to plan a few meals before I went to the grocery. Yesterday: Balsamic-glazed Salmon with Spinach, Capers, and Golden Raisins – The family hates salmon, so even with the balsamic glaze, which is pretty flavorful, I still [...]
