Cheers to 2009, but jeers to leaving home to return to snow. I packed a TON of plane food the night before (the LAST thing I want is to be stranded/delayed in an airport without food options). With the other end piece of the Alfaro’s bread, the rest of the veggie cheddar shreds, mushrooms, and a fresh, organic tomato, I made a pretty gourmet sando. Check it out! It turned into a monster as I was making it, so it’s a good thing the bread is SUPER thick to hold all that stuff in. DAYAM!… Read more >

Thanks to the time zone changes, my circadian rhythm was totally messed up, so I was up early, while everyone else slept in…well, not everyone. My mom was in the kitchen already starting the cooking/baking/prep and one set of Aunt and Uncle were off for their AM walk. I sat in the kitchen with my mom and made myself a big mug of coffee.My parents have the same froth machine as I do, so I made a nice perfectly foamy (and lactose free) coffee. Then I got ready for company (since people were coming over… Read more >
