    Minus cute Mummy faces

    1 lb Turkey = 2 ways: Dumplings & Meatballs.  {For Spinach & Feta Meatballs, add 1 c chopped Spinach & sub Feta for Gouda…yields about a dozen of each–one for supper and another for the freezer}

    A spicy jolt to kick start Saturday morning!

    Melt in your mouth Sea Bass with stewed Kalamatas, Tomatoes, and Capers on a bed of smashed Parsnips & local Veggies.

    Pumpkin Mousse, Cake, Cheesecake Cake.

    Weekend anthem {played on repeat, til everyone groaned and threatened to throw something at me}

  3. 3 Things Thursday

    June 21, 2012 by The Squishy Monster

    Every week is an accelerated one, this week being no exception.  Perhaps this is because I feel too much electricity.  In any event, these 3 things provided anchors for me throughout the week.

    Kimbra | Old Flame

    I’ve had this on repeat, it’s sonically what warm, fluid caramel might be…I think ;)

    I went to the park today and watched half a dozen people or so whiz by, some inadvertently kicked this around with their long and quick strides.  I wonder what happened and I’m sure someone would be only too eager to respond with “sometimes, it happens.”

    and finally, a daily dose of refreshing zing, especially for those on-the-go mornings that just can’t wait for bacon and eggs.  Morning is a demanding lady, huh?  Just imagine how much calmer everyone would be if afforded the luxury of a nice and leisurely breakfast. Imagine this: bathed in the morning sun in your breakfast nook, a satisfying smile cues the rest of the day, induced by a seducing platter of crispy, buttery potatoes, fluffy mounds of scrambled eggs, streaky strips of bacon that almost wink at you, mountains of toast with jam and butter with freshly squeezed juice (by your hand maid…haha, jk).  As this is not the case, I’m especially lovin’ on my smoothie.

    One of my favorite smoothies (on the left): Blueberry & Kale.  I blend those up with a frozen banana, flax seed, and unsweetened coconut milk.

    On the right is a different sort of Kombucha.  My usual favorite is the Strawberry Serenity but they were out and this looked interesting.  My friend wrinkled his nose at it saying that it had the texture of mass quantities of slippery roe sliding down your throat.  Yea, it does but if you can get past that, I think it’s delicious and I rather enjoy the texture.  It’s nice to chew on too.

    I hope everyone is having a super day (it’s almost the weekend, after all) =D

    Love,

    Your Squishy Monster
