I have some photos that seem to have piled up since I have neglected this little blog for the past few weeks/months.  You see, despite my absence, I still cook and bake all the time.  I just don’t seem to find the time to share it.  Also, half the time I don’t write down recipes.  I think it’s because deep down I know I won’t likely get around to sharing it anyway.  But that’s lame on my part.  Especially because when things turn out well I’m annoyed that I don’t have the recipe to replicate… Read more >

Final family vacay of the summer! Even though it felt like we JUST got back from Hawaii, we hopped back on a (very small) plane to spend the week in McCall and then Boise with Kyle’s family.  Here are some highlights: Suited up and ready to go. If only life always involved diggers.  His practically does… Lunch mish mash salad that I loved so much I had 3 times in a row.  Avo + mustard + mayo = strange but good. Baby selfie. Delicious.  Tasted much darker than 55% cocoa. They had the first book in the cabin…how could I… Read more >

  This week’s favorites included lunches like this and juices like that. All I wanted was vegetables.  As many as I could fit into each meal.

I told you it was going to be a plant based week after our indulgent vacation and I meant it!  P is also teething and has no appetite for meat so why bother buying and cooking it for anyone? This menu was one for the books.  All fantastic and fresh and super tasty – just the kind of fare you need after excessive overeating and drinking.  Ya know? On our first night back home, I threw this together.  Our fridge was practically empty except for the 400 tomatoes.  And I picked several more pints that ripened while… Read more >

Indulge me as I relive our vacation through the few iPhone pics I got. Up in the clouds. Special Tim Tams.  Yummm.   Dinner at Leilani’s.  Fish (monchong I think?) and shrimp with coconut black rice and bok choy. Auntie L train. My lunch 75% of the days there.  Papaya seed dressing is where it’s at. Some naps were harder to get out of him. But I don’t mind a snuggle session one bit. Mango fizzy something or other (with booze). The Ka’anapali breakfast.  So. Much. Food.   More drank, more mama naps. More fries…. Read more >
