Shrimp and Tofu Stir fry with Ginger Sriracha Sauce

Shrimp and Tofu Stir fry with Ginger Sriracha Sauce
As I was putting my food together before work yesterday morning, when I opened the pantry I saw that there was one lone everything bagel left.  I know Jacob and Hannah usually eat them, but I said “snooze you lose!” and brought it to make a breakfast bagel. Later on I put that on Instagram to let Hannah and Jacob know that I took the...

Crunchy Shrimp Tacos

Crunchy Shrimp Tacos
I haven’t mentioned it the last couple days that I am back to drinking coffee.  BUT, not using my International Delight (are you happy Jody?! ) but using a splash of almond milk and 1/2 a packet of Splenda – so good! I made it Day 4 of getting up and hitting the gym.  I cannot tell you how proud I am of myself.  I...

Seared Scallops Over Parmesan and Pea Orzo

Seared Scallops Over Parmesan and Pea Orzo
So I got up early to go to my EKG.  I didn’t know how long it was going to take so I gave myself plenty of time.  I was in the parking lot by 7:30. That was the view I had when Tony was in the hospital when he got his artificial heart valve in 2007. Well, from registration to the end of the test,...

Kung Pao Shrimp for One

Kung Pao Shrimp for One
My breakfast sammie was so good yesterday, I decided to KERF it and have the same breakfast two days in a row!  On my classy paper plate – breakfast comes in at 387 calories, 12 fat, 31 carbs, 1.5 fiber and 33 protein. I have until November 2nd to get my 170 mile challenge accomplished, and as of Sunday I still had 119 miles to...

Alfredo Pasta with Shrimp

Alfredo Pasta with Shrimp
I have never had the cleaning skills as my daughter Hannah.  My Mom and I joke that I don’t know how Hannah came out of me because I was the kid whose room looked like a tornado went through it.  It could be like that for months until I couldn’t stand it anymore and then would do a clean sweep.  It may have lasted a...

I’ve Never Had Tuna Casserole.

I’ve Never Had Tuna Casserole.
It was 47 degrees yesterday morning when I got up – love!!  Just something about crisp cool air and I am a happy camper.  And right now as I type this?  It’s 35 degrees!  Okay, that may be a bit too chilly for me this early in September, but we’ll end up in the upper 60s today. More breakfast casserole for me!  This time with...

I talked to Charlie!  Every time I had called he was sleeping.  I called my Mom and started to talk to her and I heard my brother in the background say “I have cancer.”  You have to know Charlie personally, but he was saying it in a funny voice and it made me laugh. He sounded tired.  His main complaints are the awful, constant bad...

Thanks for all your comments on my Guy Fieri Halloween costume.  I’ve done famous chefs three years in a row and am stumped on who I should be next year – let me know if you have any ideas! 😀 I still had leftover roast beef, so I made a hash – 3 oz. roast beef, baby spinach, roasted red pepper, 2 eggs, 1/2 ounce...

Scallop Pasta with Garlic White Wine Sauce

Scallop Pasta with Garlic White Wine Sauce
I think you guys know I like pizza.  A lot.  When I was foraging through my fridge to come up with breakfast yesterday morning, I realized I still had some artisan bread leftover from my rosemary bread I made over the weekend. Don’t really need to twist my arm too much to fix pizza – and there is really nothing “breakfasty” about this – not...

Best Spicy Shrimp Cocktail Ever

Best Spicy Shrimp Cocktail Ever
What a wonderful weekend we had.  The weather was amazing, and I was really bizzy in my kitchen this weekend. I forgot to tell you yesterday that the flea market we went to on Saturday was pretty gross – I mean like worse than some garage sales.  But I did get a new fish spatula and some Greek seasonings, but other than that it was...
