Pumpkin & Pomegranate

I started off my day with yet another bowl of gorgeously messy kasha, though today it wasn’t quite as messy as yesterday. I am really loving the PB in my bowl of appley goodness!

Sometimes I can be super duper lazy. I know full well that I can make curry from scratch. Hell, I’ve made Paska and full out Indian meals that took 4 hours to prepare. I have canned, I have made 12 loaves of bread in a weekend for Christmas presents, I have the ability to make [...]

It has been quite chilly up here in the PNW! All I can really think about lately is soup. This particular soup was a bit of a hodgepodge, but ended up tasting REALLY good. So good that I just have to pass it along. I made it for Matt last night, and we ate so [...]

Sometimes you just want a chip. You want a way to get the dip to your bouche without using your fingers (though truth be told I often run out of crudité and resort to the finger technique). I miss a chip, and while I could make crackers or mix up a batch of pulp chips [...]

I clearly have a thing for theme nights. Since I cannot travel right now, and to be honest it is a tad difficult to travel in most foreign countries when you have dietary restrictions, I choose to bring the country to me. last night was a whirlwind through Morocco!

Saturday night we wanted something warm and filling. We got a bit of a late start due to me thinking football would last longer, and so I took my time in the shower. By the time I got to Matt’s around 9pm he was ready for dinner. Luckily he is a man who loves his [...]

I am a huge dork, let’s just get that out of the way. After making the glorious burgers a couple of weeks ago I decided that I needed to have them again, and SOON. But since Matt thought they were a bit “carroty” for him*(see note) I wanted to come up with a recipe that [...]

This is one of the dishes that I made over and over again last Fall. I always thought I hated Brussels sprouts until my father made his version which were roasted with caramelized onions. I fell in love. I could have eaten the entire dish myself. Well I made a variation, and then variations on [...]

I mentioned that I got a kung pao pepper and some mustard spinach from my friend last night. Well, I ran home for lunch and whipped this up. Absolutely delicious! I had to share, and it is really simple to make. You could use regular spinach or mustard greens in place of the mustard spinach. [...]

It’s official! It’s Fall! So for any of you who celebrate the equinox, I wish you a happy one! I took a rather blissful walk last night celebrating the change in season, and took a few photos along the way (sorry, it was dusk and the light was not working with me). I walked down [...]
