Birthday Breakfast

Hey guys. I’m 24 today! That’s still “early twenties,” right? Brent and I are headed to Denver today! We’re staying with his brother Jon, and while we’re there we have lots of fun stuff planned, so expect an exciting recap.
To get my day started right, Brent and I headed out for a run [...]

Eggplant Parmesan Pizza

We spent a lot of Saturday out of the house running errands at the mall, and a very exciting trip to the dog park! We used to take Lucy to the dog park in Redondo Beach all the time because we didn’t have a back yard, but Larry has never been to one. I was [...]

The View From The Roof

I hope you all had a fun Fourth of July! Brent and I had a good time just hanging out at home. We made a delicious dinner on the grill. I had wild Sockeye salmon (Brent had a NY Strip steak), grilled herbed corn on the cob and a salad with a delicious Feta dressing.
The [...]

My goal for yesterday was to use up some of the herb collection growing in my fridge from the CSA. First up, I made the rosemary and onion foccacia from Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day. The only difference I did with mine was that I used my half whole wheat version, which uses [...]

“Lunch”

My “lunch” was kind of pitiful. I had [...]

Birthdays – They Grow Up So Fast

Both of our dogs were adopted from shelters after being taken in as strays, and we have no idea when their actual birthdays are, so we celebrate them both the first week of February. The photos that follow show the story of yesterday’s celebration. (Lucy was involved too, but she is much shyer around the [...]

Recession Food

This is what the weather in the fort looks like. I think it’s pretty as long as I don’t have to drive anywhere in it. Lucy, being born and bred in El Monte, California hates the snow and always steps off the patio with great trepidation while giving me pity-inducing looks through the back window. [...]

Delicious, yes. Pretty… not so much.

Today was our first real fall day. Crisp, and actually quite chilly. I was craving something fall-ish: spicy and warming. I came up with some molasses ginger cookies. They need definite tweaking. Here they are rolled in sugar and ready to go into the oven. This is them at their most beautiful:

And then, while in [...]
