So, over the weekend, my dad gave me a few eggplants and a monster zucchini from his garden. You can kind of see it in this picture, but it doesn’t really do it justice. It was the size of my upper arm. And I’ve got some biceps, damn it.
Anyway, I needed to make something with [...]

Pizza and ice cream make a good pair

We had leftover pizza dough in the freezer from the calzones, so I made us each a little mini pizza tonight. Chris just had mozzarella, spinach and sauce on his, but I got a little carried away and added goat cheese, onions and mushrooms to mine instead of the sauce:
The flash on my camera really [...]
I guess I like American yogurt

I got this new kind of yogurt over the weekend:
They didn’t have the kind I usually get, which is just plain old nonfat yogurt. I was expecting something exciting, what with the bold “thick and creamy” claim, but it’s actually much thinner than the regular kind and really, really sour. I had to add raisins [...]
Jack’s birthday extravaganza

Chris was off work today, so I took him to my gym this morning since his is closer to his office than our apartment. He has recently taken up boxing (not with other people, just a bag…I enjoy teeth on my men) so I put on some gloves and hit the gym’s bag with him. [...]

Tonight I didn’t really feel like cooking anything so Chris made his special red sauce:
With equally special whole wheat penne:
I know, he’s quite the chef. You should see him whip up a veggie burger. It’s outstanding.
After, I had some chocolate chips:
Apparently I didn’t get enough this afternoon, when I made my new favorite snack again:
Okay, [...]
Not enough time

All day, I’ve been about two hours behind. I don’t know if it’s because I’m slow, or because there is too much to do, but I am not having a productive day. Jack is actually sitting next to the couch tapping his watch because he knows he’s supposed to be on his afternoon walk right [...]
Mondays are sad

The star of the show this weekend was my stuffy nose, followed closely by my sore throat and thus, ice cream.
On Friday, there was the Reese’s Klondike bar:
Saturday, a Mr. Soft Serve:
Not to be confused with a Mr. Softee, which is way, way better. Not that I’m complaining. Chris literally ran out of our apartment [...]
I love Reese’s

I made the mistake of letting Chris go to the store alone tonight to buy some ice cream. I’m pretty flexible when it comes to ice cream, as long as it’s not too crazy. This is because I like to eat it basically every night, and I can’t be pounding some Ben and Jerry’s on [...]

Yikes, sorry! Big day yesterday. I was a little backed-up with work in the afternoon and then last night I got a new cell phone to replace the blackberry that Jack attempted to eat last week. So I’ve been busy setting it up and trying to find a ring tone that doesn’t make me want [...]
