Comfort… that’s what I need right now. We’ve been passing illnesses around the house and I have finally taken down by it. I’ve got a miserable sinus infection and a very attractive double case of pink eye. Ah yes, as if I needed something else to make me feel pretty in the last trimester of [...]
Meatless Monday… it’s a novel thought. I guess I don’t eat enough veggies… I sure do eat cheese though. It’s a shame they don’t push cheesey…ch… well some day should start in “ch”. Anyway, enough of my feable attempt at humor, let’s get on to the recipe. On Monday I tried to make a meatless [...]
Our annual holiday lunch at work was last week. They ordered in from a very nice restaurant in the area, and I was raving about these little sandwiches that were on the spread there. They were small, cold or room temperature, and a perfect little savory appetizer. The combination of the slight sweetness of the [...]
This morning I woke up, got ready for work, defrosted chicken legs, made the marinade, (making Pollo Sabroso tonight and totally forgot about it until this morning), tried to straighten up, and got my son off to daycare. I was running around like a crazy woman. Last night, however, was enjoyable. I made this tilapia [...]
I loved this recipe.. truly I did. But, alas, I have no picture to show you. Why? You might ask… Well, that’s a good one… I made these the other night for my son & I. He was eating the sausage and the bun and some mini potato pancakes (frozen) that I threw in the [...]
I think that I lose some cooking ability while pregnant. I blame it all on the pregnancy brain and not on my general cluelessness. This morning I woke up wanting coffee. My doctor actually told me to have some daily to combat the dizziness I’ve been feeling. So, I try to make a pot of [...]
I’m not sure what it is with me and anything in burger form lately… but it just sounds good. So, to make it healthier and get some more veggies in my diet, I tried these portabella mushroom burgers. The secret is in the marinade. I “grilled” mine on my indoor grill pan (I have the [...]
What a tiring weekend, and it’s all self-induced. I’m not sure if 14 weeks of a pregnancy brings about the urge to “nest”, but I can’t stop taking on random chores throughout the house. What I find to be difficult is the house keeps getting dirty around me as this occurs, so I have to [...]
Ah Julia. I was watching “Julie and Julia” on cable the other day … again. I think I could watch that movie a million times (which makes me think I should own it… ). Being pregnant, I get even more wishy-washy than I usually am, and I start to lose focus with cooking (can’t decide [...]
Tonight I got home from work and tried out a “Margo original”. I’ve been super in to wraps & sandwiches lately. I crave breakfast sandwiches (I’ve been good and make my own healthy version and take them to work), burgers, etc. The cafeteria at work serves up big wraps full of all sorts of things [...]
