My Eating Habits and Slow Cooker Tacos
When I was a young girl some parent at my school asked me what I ate for breakfast. He was curious because my dad was the incredibly fit cross-country running and track coach. I was a successful competitive swimmer. He … Continue reading
Eat me! Salmon Cakes
Fairly quick. Easy enough. Stupidly healthy (at least by my standards). Super nommy. Salmon Cake googly eyes. This is totally not a recipe. I never do the same thing twice. I never measure anything. It always turns out fantastic.
Mustard Green Potato Salad
I put some stuff together – assuming that it would be edible. It was shockingly delicious. We finished it too fast, I hadn’t made enough. The next day describing it’s marvel to a coworker she asked what I did. I … Continue reading

Blasted ice biking, rice and beans, and kale-egg-toast
Oooooh it was a week. I don’t even know what made it such a long hard week. I think it’s the snow. No, not snow, it’s the ice. No, no, that’s not quite it either. We need a special term … Continue reading
Salmon thingy, beanie wienies, and celebration steak!
*Sigh* What a week. Did I get it all done? Not yet. I did manage to cook three times. Sometimes I really have to stretch to think of what to cook. Maybe I’ll help you out with your meal … Continue reading
