My Mukka Express! Every single day — well almost every single day — I drive the kids to school, then come home and make myself a Latte. Oh, I know. I should work out first. I should march straight outside for a run or walk. Or head up to do yoga before I have my coffee. But I [...]  Indian? Again? Yes. Indian again. Stop your complaining. (And try not to be too put off by that disgusting picture. Honestly, I tried to make it look good, but I lack the skill necessary to do so.) I’ve waited several weeks to make Indian again so as not too dilute the yearning. We love it so much! Always [...] 
Ignore that picture, as there is nothing wrong with it. What I should have done is take a picture of the date next to the cute little rows off pointy-headed bulbs. Because that would be more appropriate with the title of this post. You see, I am approximately 4.5 months late planting my shallots. I know that I [...] 
Make that Meatless THURSDAY, instead. Yes, it’s been a harrowing week. I’m sick (again) and life is spinning out of control. It doesn’t help that I’m not taking it seriously. Seriously. Because all I really want to do is get up from my computer and go read a book. Or go work outside. Or go for a walk. Or eat. And eat. It doesn’t [...]  See those forks? That’s how NOT to prune your apple tree. All these tweets and blogs saying stuff like “10 best ways to…”, “How to make the perfect….”, etc. etc. Well, if you’ve come here for clear instructions on how to do anything perfectly, I can tell you now: you are in the wrong place. I am an [...] 
…For Poop Sorry for that sick photo, but you either a) get it, or b) don’t. If you don’t, then you obviously do not own a dog in a northern state that receives any appreciable snowfall. I do. And I am making my annual rounds on poop duty. It is a thankless job. If you miss the precious window [...]  Actually it is my only ragout. I don’t even really know what a ragout is. In fact, up until opening the cookbook just now for the general recipe, I was thinking it was called Ragu! Wait. Is that the same thing? Just a different spelling? Wikipedia to the rescue: The term ragout (French ragoût) refers to a main-dish stew. (The etymologically [...]  All from The Steamy Kitchen Cookbook! ! Disclaimer: This Meatless Monday features fish, because, by golly, to me, fish is meatless. (Sorry vegans!) Plus, we’ve got a lot of fish to eat in the freezer. Plus, plus, Morgan was gone and she moans and groans about fish, so I took advantage of her [...] 
Would I be a loser if I admitted that it is 10:45 am and I am laying — not in, but on top of — my bed, messing around on my computer? First of all, it is a Saturday, my day of rest. Second, I am nursing an illness. A cold. A manly/sexy low voice. Before [...] 
I wasn’t going to post this, but I have the pictures — well, I have pictures of the remnants — and the kids won’t stop talking about them. Begging for more. Stalking my life. Ruining my days. Why don’t I just make the damn things for them again? Because I hate deep frying. HATE IT. It stinks the kitchen [...] |
