Teriyaki Salmon with Sriracha Cream Sauce

I keep meaning to share this recipe: Teriyaki Salmon with Sriracha Cream Sauce from damndelicious.net.  Yum!  I made this a month ago or so, and Scott has mentioned that he wouldn’t mind if it reappeared at our dinner table.  A few times.  Or maybe once a week.  He loved it. I liked it a whole…

Avocado Green: Soup Edition

We happen to have an avocado green bathtub, but that’s not what’s going on here.  In the name of eating more greens, I tried a new recipe last night.  I just didn’t know quite how green it would be.  Check it out:  It’s Avocado-Corn Chowder with Grilled Chicken from Cooking Light.  This is how the official…

Office Animals

Becoming a Yogi

Okay, so maybe “yogi” is an exaggeration (the interwebs told me that a yogi is someone who is proficient at yoga), but I did start doing yoga with some free online videos in the past month. Scott is always trying to figure out how we can work out together in ways that we’ll both enjoy. …

Peanut’s Cows (continued) and Cereal for the Soul

First things first.  Peanut’s cows made the news in Germany a few days ago: German cows cause methane blast in Rasdorf (BBC).  Poor cows.  They’re just minding their own business, grateful to be in the shed for winter, and boom!  Peanut must have been really busy checking on his other cows after that mess.  (Missed…
