Good stuff



This sounded so good, I dug in before I remembered to take a picture.

It was kind of inspired by this post from a local food blogger. It sounds awesome, but it was getting late and I don't have a lot of ingredients on hand right now. But I did have the the jar of homemade pear-ginger preserves my friend Sally gave me, so I cracked it open finally, warmed it up and smeared it on some simple Bisquick pancakes.

Man, that was good. And I made enough pancakes I can probably have breakfast tomorrow. Or maybe this weekend. There's just enough preserves left for one more dish.

*Edited: Oops. Wasn't peach. 'Twas pear. Shoulda read the label, huh?

RIP Steve Jobs

Sharing my food



My friend Lace shared a weight-loss tip she read recently that is basically to keep a food diary by using your smart phone to take a picture of your meals. The idea is it will keep you more accountable to sticking to healthy eating. Lace is taking it a step further by sharing her pix on her Google+ account (with those who opt in to that circle.) I thought I'd try something similar, but since my phone isn't quite smart enough to post to Google or Facebook, I'll try it here.

So that's tonight's dinner above, leftover rotisserie chicken breast (from last night. I was too tired to make anything), some frozen mixed vegetables and brown rice (which I'll make the leftovers into fried rice another night). Milk to drink. Pretty quick and easy, and not all a bunch of processed junk.

By the way, I probably won't do this every day, and certainly not every meal. Just so you won't worry I'm going to bore you or something.
