🍴: Mon – We had beet tops, so planned a meal around a borani. Rack of lamb with all the Mediterranean/SWANA spices, pomegranate molasses-glazed carrots, and sauteed zucchini. Tues – sticky chicken thighs with Chinese sausage/mushroom/red bell pepper rice as inspired by Woks of Life, but minus the work of deboning chicken. Wed – Hampton…

Where are we? When are we?? For over a week, I have been battling the cold from H-E-🏒-🏒. The home COVID test I took was negative and the doctor I saw a few days in didn’t seem to think I needed another but just needed to let the mystery virus run its course. Food has…

🍴: Mon – turkey meatball subs with arugula salad. I just did what the nonnas told me, and I hope they share the same inspo again, because Hampton loved them. I did use up a pack of mozzarella pearls he had bought for lunch and stuffed them inside and there was pizza sauce for the…

🍴: Mon – There were tiny toasts leftover from a crostini bar at a work event last week, so we topped some with shaved beef we simmered in a delicious MacGyvered up leftover bean broth (or “beanjuhs”, as we like to say, a la Baby Billy), topped with spme Swiss cheese, and a horseradish crème…

Late this time for the best of reasons — new rehearsals! (scroll down for details 🤗) 🍴: Mon – SautĂ©ed Chicken Ă la Ronsard. Pretty sure I’ve never made a sauce that was strained? So easy/fancy/French brasserie at home. Tues – SCM bavette with pan-roasted duck fat potatoes and attempt at these feta-bakes brussels. As…

Time flies when you’re having Sunday night fun. And then on Monday, when Hampton’s car dies in the middle of the street on the way to his 6 a.m. shift. On a holiday. In the rain. 🍴: Mon – We tested out TJ’s new line of steaks. And realized how spoiled we are by Smoke…
-
🍴: Mon – because I anticipated having a rehearsal conflict on Saturday for intermediate ballet, I popped into tonight’s beginner 2 class, so Hampton took care of dinner and did a lentil/merguez/feta shenanigans much like we did a few weeks ago and I was so ready to eat after an hour of strength training before…
