What do you do when you're having roasted chicken and the only two vegetables on hand are ones that you know nobody is going to want to eat? You mix them together! Duh.
1. roasted chicken
2. spinach and butternut squash
Kitchen alchemy? Eh. More like spinach and butternut squash kinda mixed together. But I do love me some chicken skin, and sometimes that's enough.
1. chuck roast braised with onions in shiraz
2. over egg noodles
3. lemon cilantro hummus and pita chips
'Cause that's the fancy kinda eatin' we do around here.
1. chili
2. grapes
Winter comes to the desert
And chili calls to my soul
Poetic, no?
It's pretty much my favorite fish. Which has nothing to do with me overcooking this particular piece of fish. By a lot. Really.
1. olive oil poached halibut
2. on top of a smashed yellow potato
3. green beans
4. freakin' delicious tomatoes
If I ever try this again, and I'm not sayin' that I will, I'm going to go with the oven method. Maybe.
Long time no see. How've ya been? I missed you.
1. Thai yellow curry with potatoes and carrots over rice
2. the sweetest little tangerines ever
PS: I owe someone a HK sandwich box. This might top my previous record for not mailing stuff. Sorry about that.
1. fish
2. rice
3. green beans
I'm almost positive the fish was halibut. That's a big ol' spoonful of cooled lemon and caper butter sauce on top of the fish that I wanted to smear all over my knees and lick off at my leisure but instead I acted as though I'd imagine adults do.
In other news I need some beach reading! Not sure if I want to drive over to DI or just hit the local B&N.
It's the week before vacation which means work is pretty much guaranteed to suck extra hard. Also that I'm going to be eating some weird stuff. I like to use the week before a vacation to eat up all the crap that's been sitting around for a while. You know, the things that seemed like such a good idea when you were tossing stuff willy-nilly into the cart but then after you got home, well, not so much. 
1. grilled chicken leg (marinated with lemon and 7 spice)
2. lemon and saffron couscous (Fresh & Easy box mix and better than I'd expected)
3. berries
Luckily this week happened to coincide with a holiday weekend - significantly minimizing my pain. I mean I do have berries after all. Remind me to tell you later about the 6 pound pork shoulder sitting in the fridge waiting to get in mah belly!
