Thai meatball salad

Thai meatballs! These have very few ingredients but heavenly flavors. You can serve them as a rice bowl w broccoli. Or on the side of a stir fry. Or like I did, on top of a salad. With so much lettuce from the CSA, I had tons of options for this salad. I decided to go with a mix of red and green leaf, plus mizuna and frisee. Use whatever is available to you though! For the meatballs, I used a combo of ground pork and ground beef, then I added fresh herbs, fresh ginger,… Read more >

Run Fast Cook Fast Heal Slow

You know how when you’re sick, you don’t want to think about food for a while – ESPECIALLY the food that you had before you were sick. Well, that’s been me for, uhhhh, let’s see, a month now??

After I got the flu, I was forced to slow down for a bit, but then I was a really bad patient and after two days, figured I was well enough to get back into the swing of things.

May showers, Spring flu-wers

We are in un-catch-up-able territory. Kyle was gone for a week. I threw my sister a baby shower. I got the flu (IN MAY). V got pneumonia. Ashes ashes, we all fall down.

Fortunately, it seems everyone from the shower made it out of the weekend with their health still in tact, so obviously my hand washing… Read more >

Lavender Strawberry Scones

In case you were wondering if we still have strawberries overflowing from our refrigerator, the answer is yes… And I have re-made these strawberry muffins THREE TIMES since I first showed them to you all. Which was only, like, a week ago?? You do the math. They are a big time hit in this house. I keep forgetting to write down the recipe as I make it though. I know loosely what I do but each time the batch gets bigger and bigger because we go through them so fast! Anyway, this post isn’t about… Read more >

Bulk pantry

The Davis co-op underwent a major (and much needed in my humble opinion) revamp this Winter and now that it’s all finished and looking so fabulous, they had a few sales for members! The new store layout was a thank you enough for me, but I’ll take and extra 10% too if it’s being offered! Each Thursday this month there was a different section of the store offering a discount, but all I really cared about was the bulk bins day. Three full weeks went by without me refilling anything and let me tell you…by… Read more >
