I have two favorite food blogs right now. One is Nom Nom Paleo and the other is Paleomg. I have yet to follow a single recipe down to the letter, but we're getting there. They certainly give me good ideas... like roasted broccoli. Who would have thought? I sure didn't. Broccoli was always for boiling or steaming, but those days are gone! Roasting is so good, and my daughter eats it like it's chips or something. Definite win for our family.
My husband made the house look much better today by cleaning the kitchen floor, something I never get around to, what with working full time, cooking, cleaning dishes and more dishes, our daughter, and helping my parents with stuff. It's been some busy times.
But now that it's all clean we can now look to getting our refrigerator fixed. After that it's a matter of saving up money to go to Austin to buy a few less than perishable staples.
Tomorrow is gaming night since I'm off Friday, and I'm going to make chicken and gravy in the crock pot again. It was divine last time. This time I am going to make it without using the soup mix and use beef stock instead. I know it seems weird to some people that I cook chicken with beef stock, but I love that extra little bit of flavor. I am also going to roast an epic ton of broccoli. Some of it will be for our dinner and some of it will be for my daughter to snack on. I imagine, however, that our host's kids will eat a great deal of it as well. They always do.
I will be well prepared this time to say no to the pizza.
I think I might roast some asparagus as well... man, that sounds good!
