Okay, show of hands-

How many people by now have no idea that eating more fruits and vegetables, lean protein, and drinking plenty of (unpolluted) water is better for you than processed food?

I know it. Everyone knows it.

What these arrogant shits who keep aiming to “teach low income people” is not something we don’t know. 

If you want to “teach” me something about food then teach me how to make $30 a week for three people stretch without processed meals.  

Or how about you stop assuming we are ignorant of the fact that fresh foods are better for us than hamburger helper and look at the root of WHY we have to buy the shit.

Once again, it’s just easier to assume ignorance and laziness than it is to apply any critical thinking or empathy.

WORD.

I’m building a portfolio.

Stuff I’ve done in the kitchen. Professional-looking photos, simple recipes included, a blurb about each project. I’ve narrowed things down to ten possible inclusions. I’m also doing Four Loko cupcakes on Saturday, so if all goes well with those, that should make for a pretty impressive entry.

I’m really not sure what I’m doing, like, at all. But I think the trick is to act like you’re the shit and then people will believe you. That tends to work. Besides, I’ve seen the competition in Clarksville. I am kind of a badass.

Berries.

I’m making these today, only full-sized and with different frosting. I added in almost a whole cup of chunked up berries along with the puree, because I bought them from a strawberry farm this morning and they’re the best berries I’ve ever had. For the frosting, I’m doing a white chocolate version of this.

I went ahead and doubled the recipe, just to be on the safe side. I expect they’ll all be gone by the end of the night regardless.

doctorchemistry replied to your post: QUICK! Make a decision for me!

Pizzadillas: Quesadillas with mozzarella and pepperoni dipped in pizza/marinara. They are my easy cheap to-to staple.

That sounds so wonderful! Definitely putting this on my list of Things to Eat Posthaste.

Oh, yes.

I alternated napping and reading all afternoon and evening, heavy on the napping phase, so my sole accomplishment for the day (besides a serious dose of dachshund cuddling,) was to cook this pork loin. And, as it turns out, the day was an unqualified success!

Orange juice, Worcestershire, ginger, pepper, cholula, and a splash of maple syrup, over a 4 pound pork loin, and walk away for 8 hours.

This stuff is so good, I almost don’t believe it. Lady K very rarely coos and drools over a cut of meat, but this one did it. I dumped the leftover liquid into a skillet, boiled it down a bit, and thickened it for sauce to keep for future use.

Excuse me, I’m going for seconds.

Oh my god. Nick is making a pot pie that tastes pretty incredible, but I’m extra jealous of your dinner.

The stuffy ‘cupcakes are my life’ instructor at the cupcake decorating masterclass I took the other night was not at all appreciative of my interpretation of her directions to ‘make floral arrangements using the piping bags’. I feel like she could expand her definitions a little. 

GORGEOUS
