Thanks for everyone’s kind words over the last week or so. I’m feeling great, Josh is doing well, and Chester is just about to his normal self. A secondary problem when I don’t feel well is that I start to spiral into some pretty bad eating. Because cold water made my tooth feel SO much better, I’d been eating a lot of ice cream. Bad eating = feeling yucky on top of already feeling yucky, so I’ve been cleaning up…
Read more*Pictures Updated on 8/15/13 with Easy Whole Wheat Bread* White chicken chili has always looked like something I’d want to eat– if only it didn’t have chicken. It’s creamy, smells a little spicy, and looks so comforting! Not knowing what it actually tastes like, I had to start with recipes I found online and tweak them to taste like something delicious. I decided to keep it pretty simple. When I make regular chili,…
Read moreI know it’s no where near bell pepper season, but I crave stuffed peppers all year round. I like them a few different ways: fake meat and rice, chili and cornbread, full of veggies and tomato sauce– all are good choices! My sister and dad mentioned last week that they were going to make chicken chorizo stuffed peppers, so I just had to figure out a way to do that vegetarian. I’ve never had “real” chorizo, so I bought a package…
Read moreWhen it comes to the Dorito-filled taco salad you find at picnics and family reunions, there are two types of people: Thousand island people and French dressing people. If you saw my previous post (or just read the title of the recipe) then you know what kind of person I am. Thousand island people — I don’t judge you too harshly, thousand island is pretty amazingly delicious in most circumstances, too. French dressing is just better…
Read moreWow, I must really like enchiladas. While they normally can’t hold a candle to my favorite (tacos), they’re pretty much on the top of my list. Right now, the irony is that I’m SO sick of Mexican food. At my sister’s graduation party, we had literally 10 gallons of queso, and because we had 9 gallons of left overs, I’m pretty burnt out. I’ve been giving queso to everyone who will take it (and mini cupcakes,…
Read moreOh woah, hi there. I feel like once a week, I start a post with apologizing for how flaky I am. I was in a good MWF swing for a while, and suddenly I’m just so lazy. Honestly, it’s mostly Big Brother related. Anyone else watching Big Brother? I’m obsesssssed. In fact, I’m watching After Dark right now as I write this (don’t worry, I DVRed it. Ain’t no body got time to watch this at 1 am). Anyone have a…
