As promised…

Forgot to take a picture of the whole deal, sorry.  So I’m going to post the recipe that I did, because it is pretty drastically different from the one in Veganomicon.  For starters, mine isn’t vegan.  Oops.
Anyway, here we go:

Four handfuls of whole wheat penne (Sorry, that’s how I measure. I figure a handful is [...]

THIS IS VERY URGENT

Have I mentioned that Jack requires a lot of attention?  He is what you might call needy.  Basically, if he was a person, he would have no friends and any prospective girlfriends would dump him after the first date.
When I work from home, this is what he does for approximately six hours a day:
But as [...]

Top of the muffin to you!

One of the best Seinfeld episodes ever.  On right now.  Why are you still reading this?
Anyway, lots of snacks today.  I was hungry.
Pear this morning:

I am usually skeptical of Trader Joe’s pears, but these are actually good.
Grapes:

Not frozen.  Let me ask you a question - red or green?  Chris says red.  I think I prefer [...]

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, [...]

All in one

Sorry for the late post, but:

I figured I’d spare you an entire post about peaches again.  I know, I’m too good to you.  No need to thank me.  Lucky for you, my peach supply has run dry (Mom! Help!) and so I’ll have to be more creative tomorrow.  And by creative, I mean eat a [...]

I attract the crazies

Sorry for the late post, I was out running around all day.  Uptown and downtown and uptown and downtown and Brooklyn and the nail salon and Whole Foods and Starbucks and it’s a tough life, okay?
And yes.  I did go to Starbucks again.  I’m actually quite glad I did because while I was there a [...]

Overcoming obstacles

For dinner we had pasta and zucchini again (I apparently am a bad planner) with sun dried tomatoes, parmesan cheese and mushrooms this time:

This meal was a minor accomplishment because I essentially cooked it in the dark.  Our kitchen is fairly dim as it is, but the light bulb over the stove burnt out, which [...]

Improvements

Tonight for dinner I made a take on this goat cheese zucchini pasta by adding shrimp:

Much better with shrimp, I have to say.  I’m not sure what isn’t better with shrimp actually.  The last time I made it, it was a little too much with all the cheese, but the shrimp balanced it out a [...]

I can’t believe tomorrow is Monday.  Blah.
So I woke up with a massive hangover from last night…too many vodka sodas, birthday shots…yikes.  This always leads to fourth meal, but Chris said that during the cab ride home, I announced that I was going “straight to bed.”  Normally I just say I’m not going to have [...]

I used this recipe to make a pesto pasta salad with shrimp and sun-dried tomatoes:

I know.  Don’t even say it.  It looks totally gross.  It didn’t look like this in person.  Or, maybe I was just really hungry.  Tasted good, though.  That pesto is my new best friend.
Also had an ice cream sandwich:

And this afternoon, [...]
