Current favorite soup with pre-cut organic butternut squash from Trader Joe’s. Just chop some apples and an onion, pour in broth, apple cider, and some spices, then slow cook: https://t.co/cXQRCQZgYhhttps://t.co/fK3q6uP8n7
so that was a rather long blogging hiatus, eh? never fear, dear readers, as i have been cooking up a storm in the past month. which means i have a ton of recipes stored up and ready to share with you!
mike and i have two cardinal rules for grocery shopping: 1. make a list before going to the store, and 2. never shop hungry. since i’ve discussed my meal planning and grocery list methods recently, i thought i would focus on the latter rule. you see, when we shop hungry it’s astounding what makes it into the cart: lots of sugar-laden food (read: cookies and chocolate), tons of salty snacks (read: pretzels, chips, popcorn, etc), oh yeah, and someone always gets cranky (read: me). does this sound familiar to any of you?
i’ve been fighting a cold this weekend. unfortunately, this isn’t a new occurrence – since i started working in a medical clinic, i feel like i’ve been fighting off colds every other week.
you guys, we’re going through a cold weather spell up here in seattle. and it’s making me want to curl up under a blanket, read, and only leave the coziness of my sofa to eat a steaming bowl of soup.
