Mission: Eat the Fridge

Hi Hi! I left you on Saturday afternoon, so let’s pick up there . It’s “mission: eat the fridge” before moving day which is leading to some random inventive meals! Here’s Saturday’s supper. TJ’s Lobster ravioli with mixed veggies and bucheron cheese. I jazzed up the flavors a little with some minced garlic, olive oil and [...]

Of COURSE I have time to blog today, because today is packing day and I always have time to do anything that does not involve that horrible chore . So let’s see what I’ve done instead. First, made pancakes! I HAD to make pancakes today because today is the day we celebrate the birthday of the [...]

Happy Friday! And today has been an especially happy Friday indeed, because my friends and I got to have lunch from the Red Hook Lobster truck which stopped right by our office. Since this food truck came to DC it’s been getting a lot of buzz and the line-up for lobster has a reputation for being looooooong. I’m [...]

Yesterday afternoon I was reading my usual blogs when I came across an idea I just knew I HAD to try! A peanut butter and jelly omelette! It did indeed sound a bit strange but really, eggs can go either way, right? Savory or sweet. So of course I whipped one up as soon as possible – dinner . [...]

I was not a good sleeper last night . It’s hard sleeping in a room full of boxes! I have all kinds of mixed feelings about Tuesday’s move and those thoughts kept whirling around in my head. I feel like the house I’m in now is full of so many memories from this whole crazy year and [...]

Hey There! Last night I finally took the plunge and turned our oven on. Problem is, our apartment is consistently boiling hot. Our landlord assures us the A/C is working properly but I don’t believe it for a second. Consequently, I prefer not to do anything that involves making our tiny kitchen any warmer than [...]
Fun’s Over

Hello and Happy Monday! I was quite an accomplished packer yesterday afternoon, even though looking at my emptying room kind of makes me want to cry . But nevermind! I had last night’s Restaurant Week meal #3 to cheer me up. My friend Jackie and I went to Acadiana which I’ve been dying to try for a [...]

Many thanks to Coco and Terra Chips for the delicious snacks and GIANT martini glass :). Pre-party roommate champagne toast. [...]

HaAppy Friday! Tonight is a bittersweet occasion, for we are hosting a farewell gathering at our house. Two of the four of us are moving out at the end of the month and it’s time to say goodbye! Last time we had people over, I tried to make Ina Garten’s chocolate peanut butter cupcakes. The [...]
