Chinese broccoli and tofu stir-fry with short-grain brown rice.

I was thinking about seeding tomatoes outside this week!

I find that being dehydrated really impacts my mental abilities, too. When I start to feel like I'm just thinking and moving slowly, the first thing I do is drink some water.

We had lunch out with my mom, who is still visiting, yesterday. It was a big meal, so we just had salads for supper.
Saturday we had corn/potato chowder and salad for lunch, and cod with a...

Good luck in your new position! And report back to us after you figure out how to manage everything!

That's what we do with leftovers here, too!

Hayward, WI fits the description as well. We go there every summer to stay at a friend's cabin. There are many lakes, many rentals. The downtown is walkable and there are some restaurants, but...

Sounds like a perfect opportunity for you!

I took a few boxes/bags of stuff to the cat shelter's dropoff for their annual yard sale, a week ago. Also continuing to pass on DD's outgrown stuff to a very appreciative friend.

What does said person like? I often think of gifts from the kitchen, because, well, cooking is what I do. Such as:
homemade bread and homemade jam
homemade dark chocolate/nut and/or dried fruit...

I keep cash on hand for two reasons:
1. farmers market
2. DH likes to have cash and doesn't give me any notice until he wants it, i.e. telling me that he'll need some in a couple of days. I don't...

:) Thanks, watergoddess.

If you want to make a loaf or some type of croquettes with it, I find that flax meal is a much better binder than breadcrumbs. Sometimes I use oatmeal, too.

I usually write checks for various school demands. That's about the only time I write an actual check anymore.
I keep little cash in my wallet but like many above, I do keep a little on hand at...

We eat a LOT of fresh produce. Usually 9-10 servings of veg/fruit per day. Almost zero flour of any kind (including GF), and < 2 servings of potato/whole grains per day. Usually 1-2 small servings...

Breakfast today, sweet potatoes, black beans, and spinach. Lunch for DD, quinoa & peas; mango/strawberry salad. Lunch for DH, my mom, and myself: salads with hard-boiled egg and sliced...

Being bored is an important step in the creative process, I think!
I like to take 'retreat' days at home. Scratch everything off my list, prep food the day before, and have a personal day. ...

I think those cakes that use hot water on top are often called "pudding cakes." I've never tried one.

Yesterday I modified this recipe to make some granola bars for DD's girl scout troop (from...

I was going to suggest spicing it up as well. You could freeze it in smaller quantities and spice each container as you heat it up, so that not every meal tastes the same. You could use

Our rhubarb leaves are showing as well, but not the parsley, yet. My raspberries are still leafless, but the currants and gooseberries have leafed out. My native plums look like they will bloom...

Taco stuff did not last for two dinners. Tonight we had mu shu tofu over red bhutan rice. My mom and I had a wilted spinach salad with black bean soup on the side for lunch.
Tomorrow, sweet...

I always shop at multiple places because of sales and availability of products. Cooking is my primary hobby, so it works out well that we need to eat!
