Recipe: Hogao

Aug 13th, 2010 // In: Posts // By: // Comments 1

This, to me, falls more into the category of a condiment. It’s like a mix between pico de gallo and salsa, but not quite. I made it to put into a soup, but had extra that I stored in the fridge for other uses. I found the absolute best use for it. Eggs. I don’t [...]

Do you feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?

Jul 12th, 2010 // In: Posts // By: // Comments 1

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 [...]

What’s Cooking: June 14th

Jun 14th, 2010 // In: Posts // By: // Comments 0

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 [...]

Mom Blogs Suck

Jun 11th, 2010 // In: Posts // By: // Comments 3

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 [...]

Catch Up Post

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 [...]

I tried my first green bags. I don’t mean “green” as a marketing term used to make you spend more money all in the name of Saving The Earth. I mean green as in they are slightly green and made out of zeolite which is used to absorb ethylene gas which is what makes your [...]

Soup Weather? Really?

Apr 26th, 2010 // In: Posts // By: // Comments 0

It feels like autumn today, and given that it is after 1:00pm and still feels like autumn, I don’t think that it will be getting around to spring today. Tonight’s dinner will be soup: cauliflower coriander soup with toasted almonds to be exact. The only thing I don’t have for it is leeks, but we [...]

It was served with hazelnut crusted goat cheese. And mashed potatoes and applesauce, both to use up supplies and to have something the kids [...]

I haven’t felt like posting here lately. You can find me pretty active on Facebook. I find it easier to post a couple of lines of our day than sit and write. I’ll summarize some stuff: Food I made a chipotle chicken salad that I loved using leftovers from the crab salad. I made my [...]
